In the autumn you can find mushrooms sprouting wild in the woods, brimming in baskets at your local farmers market, and tucked into little boxes at your local grocery store. And it's then, when the weather takes a chill, that you know it's time to make Mushroom Stew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A stew is a traditional dish made by slowly cooking meat and vegetables until soft and tender. Stews also include a liquid, such as broth or wine as well as a thickening agent, such as flour, which gives the dish a velvety texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For mushroom stew, mushrooms naturally form the vegetable component of the dish while beef or bison make up the meat component. Together, they slowly simmer with aromatics, broth, and wine to make a robust, hearty stew that makes an excellent dinner on a cold winter night - especially when you serve it with a slice of crusty bread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's in it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Stews typically contain five components including meat, vegetables, aromatics, liquid, and a thickener. With these five components covered, you can make just about any stew you like. In addition to these primary ingredients, you'll also add bacon which gives the stew a delicate salty-smoky flavor, tomato paste, olive oil, and fresh herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
