My thoughts:

Growing upward my grandpop always made beef stew. The ingredients always varied because I recall he was trying to utilization upward odds inward add-on to ends inward add-on to but it was always tasty! He was his hardest critic though because every 4th dimension he made it he'd nation it was ameliorate shut to 4th dimension before inward add-on to together with thence tweak it again. I'm sort of the same way, I guess. Stews I've made inward the past times convey always been quite tasty thence I'm non trying to amend on them every bit much every bit I similar to build something novel each time. I similar sort inward add-on to honestly, developing inward add-on to posting recipes for (over 1,450 to date) tin plow over the sack gibe upward a daunting inward add-on to somewhat grueling task. If I kept making the same thing over inward add-on to over again, I'd never convey anything post!

For this beef stew I took a page from Grandpop inward add-on to used what we had inward the menage for the well-nigh part. I had rosemary inward add-on to thyme leftover from other recipes, I always convey potatoes, carrots, garlic inward add-on to celery inward add-on to I had an enormous box of mushrooms I bought at Costco that had to gibe upward used. So I added lots of mushrooms inward add-on to alone had to choice upward the beef to round out it out. I was careful to cutting everything roughly the same size every bit the beef thence it cooked evenly. I was a picayune worried the rosemary mightiness overwhelm every bit it is wont to practise but it mellowed during cooking inward add-on to gave a pleasant herbal annotation to the hearty, rich stew.
