This was a good basis for making it my own. Don’t like cinnamon, didn’t use it. Don’t like bay leaves, didn’t add them. Currants… can’t get those anywhere here. Rather red wine vinegar we used 6 ounces of our favorite teriyaki marinade and added it at the step you added the vinegar. It gave the stew a nice tang without it being too powerful. Using whole shallots on top of onion in a stew isn’t something I had ever considered but they gave the stew a really nice flavor.
A beautiful recipe but for me no good stew is complete without some carrots so I hope you don’t mind if I add some when I eventually get to making this!
Hey Jack! Quick question is the serving size for these ingredients for 1 or for 2? I wasn’t sure if I should double up on the ingredients if I’m making this for 2.
If you deglaze and then reduce the wine the alcohol is gone. But you know how you know someone can’t drink or is a vegan…they tell you every two minutes.
Traditional Stifado doesn’t have tomato and you either add cinnamon or cloves for beef, not both.
2 gloves and 2 bay leafs are enough, not 10, Greek food isn’t spicy.
