Free Recipes zinfandel beef stock
>From the Epicurious website... ~ zinfandel beef stock It's worth the extra effort to make this rich stock; the slow-simmered taste produces a sauce that far exceeds any made with canned beef broth. This recipe is an accompaniment for Standing Rib Roast with Rosemary-Thyme Crust.. Servings: Makes about 3 1/2 cups. Ingredients 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 1/2 to 4 pounds meaty beef bones (such as neck bones, beef back ribs, or crosscut beef shank) 2 cups chopped onions 2/3 cup chopped carrots 2/3 cup chopped celery 3 quarts cold water 1 cup Zinfandel or other hearty red wine 4 large fresh thyme sprigs 3 large fresh parsley sprigs 1/4 teaspoon whole black peppercorns Directions Heat oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef bones; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté until deep brown, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes. Using tongs, transfer bones to bowl. Add onions, carrots, and celery to pot. Sauté until deep brown, about 10 minutes. Return bones and any juices to pot. Add 3 quarts cold water, wine, and next 3 ingredients. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced to 3 1/2 cups liquid, about 3 hours. Strain stock into bowl. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, at least 4 hours. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover; keep chilled.) Spoon off fat before using stock. ~~ ~~~***Rhonda G in Missouri***~~~ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/a_place_for_chatting_and_friends/ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rhondas_Recipe_Exchange/ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ThePlaceToSwap/ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

Finely shred the cabbage. Cut the bacon into 1/2-inch chunks. Place a small skillet over medium-low heat and fry the bacon, until crisp. Remove from pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Set aside. Add 1 tablespoon butter to bacon fat in frying pan. When it has melted add 1/2 the garlic and give it a quick stir with a wooden spoon to soften. Add the cabbage and coat it with the butter. Slowly let it wilt. Add the bacon. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Remove from heat and add most of the chives, reserving a little for the garnish. Generously butter the bottom and sides of a 9 by 13-inch ovenproof casserole dish. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, 1 1/2 cups of cream, 1 cup of Parmesan, and the remaining garlic. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Using your hands, place a layer of potatoes in the casserole dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan and repeat with 2 more layers. Spoon the cabbage mixture on top and spread it out evenly over the potatoes. Top it off with 2 more layers of potato and Parmesan. Pour the remaining 1 cup cream over the dish. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan. Cover dish with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake for 30 minutes until golden brown. Leave for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chives. *Cook's Note: Slice the potatoes immediately before using so they don't turn brown. ~~ ~~~***Rhonda G in Missouri***~~~ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/a_place_for_chatting_and_friends/ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rhondas_Recipe_Exchange/ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ThePlaceToSwap/ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
