It's kind of funny. I don't drink very often, but boy do I love cooking with alcohol.
It just makes food taste soooo delicious.
Today's recipe: Guinness Beef Stew!
RECIPE
* olive oil (for the pan)* 2 tablespoons butter
* 1 medium onion
* 8-10 crimini mushrooms, sliced
* heaping tablespoon diced garlic
* a few good splashes of worchestershire sauce
* 3 sprigs of fresh thyme, plus a generous pinch of dried thyme
Heat dutch oven with the oil and butter, and cook above ingredients
until the onions are translucent and soft.
* about 1/2 kg stew beef, cubed.
Add the beef to the onion mixture and brown.
* 3-4 carrots, chopped
* heaping tablespoon pearl barley
* freshly ground salt and pepper
* 2/3 cup Guinness
* 2 cups beef broth
Add the above ingredients and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat. Simmer for 2-3 hours.
* about 2 cups baby potatoes
Add potatoes. Cover and simmer for another 20-30 minutes.
* about 1/2 kg stew beef, cubed.
Add the beef to the onion mixture and brown.
* 3-4 carrots, chopped

As a bonus, use the remaining Guinness to make Nigella Lawson's Guinness Chocolate Cake! The measurements work out perfectly, if you buy the 440ml cans on Guinness. (2/3 cup for the stew, and a cup remaining for the cake!) Yum!
