A stew is a combination of solid food ingredients that have been cooked in water or other water-based liquid, typically by simmering, and that are then served without being drained. Ingredients in a stew can include any combination of vegetables (potatoes, beans, etc.), fruits (such as peppers and tomatoes), meat, poultry, sausages and seafood. While water can be used as the stew-cooking liquid, wine, stock, and beer are also common. Seasoning and flavourings may also be added. Stews are typically cooked at a relatively low temperature (simmered, not boiled), to allow flavors to marry. The distinctions between stew, soup, and casserole are fine ones. The ingredients of a stew may be cut into larger pieces than a those of a soup and retain more of their individual flavours; a stew may have thicker liquid than a soup, and more liquid than a casserole; a stew is more likely to be eaten as a main course than as a starter, unlike soup; and a stew can be cooked on either the stove top (or range) or in the oven, while casseroles are almost always cooked in the oven, and soups are almost always cooked on the stovetop. There are exceptions; for example, an oyster stew is thin bodied, more like a soup. The choice of name is largely a matter of custom; it is possible for the same dish to be described as soup, stew, or casserole. Stewing is suitable for the least tender cuts of meat that become tender and juicy with the slow moist heat method. This makes it popular in low-cost cooking. Cuts having a certain amount of marbling and gelatinous connective tissue give moist, juicy stews, while lean meat may easily become dry.

4. Cooking of Provence
June 03, 2008
For many years cooking in Province has been dismissed to a bad substitute for the luxurious cuisine of northern France and Burgundy. Those people who still consider Provencal cooking is diminished to olives and fish stew has never eaten Chef Jean-Andre Charial's variant of stuffed courgette blossoms trimmed with roast courgette flowers, or Jany Gleisse's incredible dessert of ice cream under a dome of a raw lavender dressing and lavender honey. "Petit Nice" is the only one restaurant in France to gain the sought after Michelin third star this year. You don't have to attend a Michelin resta... (read more)

5. Moroccan cuisine
April 03, 2008
Moroccan food is one of the most sensual in the world. It appeals directly to the senses of smell, sight and taste in a way that not many other cuisines can match.
Eating in Morocco is serious business. The midday meal is the main one and you can expect large portions - enough to keep you going all day! They usually start off with a series of hot and cold salads. Then, they have tagine or stew. Next is the main portion - normally a lamb or chicken dish with a huge plate of meet and vegetable couscous. Mint tea is normally drunk after the meal.

7. Cultural Immersion in Rural Tuscany; Italian Language, Food and Wine
February 28, 2008
Tuscany perspectives by a visting American teacher
The first weekend I was in San Giovanni Valdarno, I found myself packed in a crowd of Italians, waiting for a helping of Tuscan bread and wild boar stew. It was a beautiful day and the main piazza was filled with Sangiovannesi. People pushed through the crowds in all kinds of medieval costumes. The quiet piazza of the night before had been entirely transformed with small booths lining its perimeter, where people demonstrated ancient trades to passers-by. I had stumbled upon the fest of the Perdono, and though I combed the crowd for othe... (read more)

8. Making better use of your slow cooker
February 15, 2008
When most people think of using a crock pot to prepare food, they tend to think of dishes that are perfect for cold weather. For example, your parents may have used a crock pot to cook a roast or vegetable stew. But, crock pots can be used to prepare meals for every taste and climate.
One of the reasons many people use crock pots is because they save time. Rather than slaving away over the proverbial hot stove, busy people can prepare one of thousands of Crock pot recipes and allow them to slowly cook without supervision. An added benefit is the aroma of delicious food that spreads throu... (read more)

November 25, 2007
Chili is a stew-like dish that differs from region to region. Also known as Chili Con Carne (chili with meat), chili, like stew, is made with several different ingredients and cooked for an extended period of time. Chili recipes are something like stew recipes. Many are good, some are bad and they're all a little different. One thing they do have in common is that everyone thinks they have the best chili recipe.Depending on the region, the chili may or may not contain beans. Chili purists may point out that real chili does not contain beans, but that answer may vary depending on whom you ask.O... (read more)

12. Bayou Beauties.... Simple Shrimp Recipes
October 31, 2007
Delicate in flavor and highly perishable, archaeologists have said humans have been eating shrimp from prehistoric times to the present. It was the early hunter-gatherers who took advantage of every available food resource and those lucky enough to live near water (oceans, seas, lakes, rivers) naturally took advantage of the foods offered by these resources. It was Bubba in the film “Forrest Gump” that ever so eloquently described the multiple ways shrimp can be prepared.

13. Authentic Gumbo: It's All About the Roux
October 31, 2007
Traditional southern cooks will tell you that a cast iron pot makes the best Gumbo. It allows the roux to cook slow and easy and turn a deep chocolate brown; some might say black, but I beg to differ. If your roux is black, it is burned and you really don’t want to use burned roux in your Gumbo.
There are a number of stories centered on what Gumbo is and how it originated. What we know for sure is the word Gumbo or Gumba as some might say in Africa is from a Central Bantu word that means okra. Okra, also called lady fingers is a long green pod full of seeds, used to thicken soups an... (read more)

17. Iowa Dealers Still Optimistic in Selling Chrysler Products
May 23, 2007
The sale of the Chrysler Group has aroused various reactions. There are some who thinks that it was the best solution like for instance Veteran Des Moines-area Dodge dealer Stew Hansen who thinks that the sale of the Auburn Hills-based company was an absolute necessity. If there is that analysts and Chrysler dealers agreed on it’s the fact that the automaker must change quickly under its new owner, Cerberus Capital Management, to win back customers. The new owner of Chrysler Group is Cerberus which is a private equity company in New York City. Cerberus has expressed its desire to reviv... (read more)

January 09, 2007
Like most Internet entrepreneurs are now, years ago I was very eager to make money and rapid progress in everything that I did. I didn't want to take time to read anything, ask questions or think things through. I had no time for that. I just wanted to make money and to make it fast. I did everything quickly. I talked fast.

19. Chile Con Carne: A History
December 22, 2006
It's simple really. Peppers with meat in a spicy stew with tomatoes, onions, beans and other ingredients in as many variations as the mind can muster. From Baja to Cincinnati right through the heart of Texas, where it's the official state dish, chile con carne, or chili for short, is among the most famous indigenous American foods.
Some say that chili was invented in Mexico during the 1840's, possibly in Chihuahua, as a complimentary dish served at cantinas for outsiders, who wanted something spicy and cheap. Others contend it was born in Ensenada, Mexico in the 1880's as a way of stretch... (read more)

20. Squirrel Meat - Delicious but Deadly?
October 25, 2006
One of my favorite movies is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. There is one particularly funny scene in which a squirrel has hitched a ride inside the Griswold house sequestered in the tree Clark has set up. The squirrel is discovered and makes a run for it, causing chaos and panic among the fleeing main characters.
Amid the confusion, Clark turns to his wife’s cousin Katherine and asks her, “Where is Eddie, doesn’t he eat these d?!$#% (expletive deleted) things?” She replies, “Not lately, he heard they are high in cholesterol.”
I have for some time taken that statement as tru... (read more)

21. Killing Animals To Survive
October 12, 2006
The snake kept moving even after the head was cut off, the insides taken out, and the skin removed. I had strung it up from a branch to clean it. When it finally stopped moving, I put it in a plastic bread bag and stuffed it in my knapsack. Later I would split the pound of meat into two pieces. One was for a stew, and the other for roasting over the fire.
I was fourteen years old, and I wanted to know everything about wilderness survival. I am more interested in backpacking now than in wilderness survival trips, but the survival lessons have stayed with me, and they make me feel more at h... (read more)

23. Notre Dame Is A Solid Play This Week!
September 21, 2006
As I have mentioned several times in the past, buy stock when it’s down not when it’s on the rise and this weekend in East Lansing, Michigan, Notre Dame is the call. Isn’t it ironic how most of America was caught up in the whole Irish hoopla and this weekend many eyes will be on Ireland?
That’s where the Americans will battle the Europeans in the Ryder Cup, while back home, many of those in sports betting are drowning in Irish stew, and courtesy of Charlie Weiss’s crews 1-2 spread record.
