Recipe : Daube de Boeuf

Makes 4 servings

This rich, savory stew gets a flavor boost from parsley, mustard, capers and garlic
added just before serving. It is one of the few stews that tastes as good served at
room temperature as it does right from the oven.

4 juniper berries*
8 fluid ounces (1 cup) dry white wine
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
15 ounces boneless lean beef loin or round, cut into 2" cubes
3 cups whole small mushrooms, woody ends trimmed
2 medium carrots, sliced
2 medium onions, sliced
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard
2 teaspoons rinsed drained capers, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced

To prepare marinade, place juniper berries into heat-resistant cup or small bowl;
add hot water to cover. Let stand 30 minutes; drain, discarding liquid.
Crush soaked berries. In gallon-size sealable plastic bag, combine wine, bay leaf,
thyme, marjoram, pepper and crushed juniper berries; add beef, mushrooms,
carrots and onions. Seal bag, squeezing out air; turn to coat beef and vegetables.
Refrigerate overnight, turning bag occasionally.
Preheat oven to 300o F. Spray 2-quart flameproof casserole with nonstick
cooking spray.
Remove beef from marinade; pat dry with paper towels. Reserve vegetables and
marinade.
Place flour onto sheet of wax paper or paper plate; add beef, turning to coat
evenly.
With slotted spoon, transfer one third of the marinated vegetables to prepared
casserole; top with half of the beef. Repeat layers; top with remaining
vegetables. Pour marinade and broth over beef mixture; add enough water until
liquid comes halfway up sides of casserole. Place casserole over medium-high
heat; bring liquid just to a boil. Remove from heat; bake, covered, 1 1/2-2 hours,
until beef is very tender.
In small bowl, combine parsley, mustard, capers and garlic; stir into beef mixture.
Let stand 5 minutes, until flavors are blended. Remove and discard bay leaf.
Divide evenly among 4 bowls and serve.
