It’s same as to braising, but it makes have a few piece of differences. The meat is chopped into smaller pieces but of being cooked all of it , and the liquid all of it covers the contents in a stew as compared to a braise’s halfway all of it .

Stew has a reputation for making a rib-sticking meal that warms you up on a cold , winter day. It’s true ; a bowl of classic beef stew does have warming featured food , but stew’s cozy factor more than a way beyond protecting you from the chill . It’s all about those soft and chunks of food and vegetables, swimming in a thick, ultra-rich gravy. The way they come together make the greatest comfort food, no matter the weather.
