Beef Bourguignon
Beef Bourguignon is a slow-cooked stew featuring beef stew meat browned and simmered in red wine with pearl onions, carrots, garlic, and herbs. The inclusion of mushrooms in the final hour adds an earthy depth to the rich, tender meat. The long oven braising melds flavors and tenderizes the beef for a classical French-style stew.
