This is nice when it's chilly out. It came from a cooking magazine that I subscribe to. I have NEVER cooked anything out of it that wasn't fabulous. YAY, Cooks Illustrated!! Ingredients:
1 lb sirloin tip steak, fat trimmed, and cut into 1/2 inch pieces |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 teaspoon vegetable oil |
1 lb cremini mushroom, stems trimmed, caps cleaned and quartered |
1 large onion, chopped (1 and 1/2 cups) |
2 tablespoons tomato paste |
1 medium garlic clove, minced (about 1 tsp) |
1/2 cup red wine |
4 cups beef broth |
1 3/4 cups low sodium chicken broth |
4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch pieces (about 2 cups) |
2 medium celery ribs, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (about 3/4 cup) |
1 bay leaf |
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin |
1/2 cup cold water |
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
table salt & fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine beef and soy sauce in medium bowl;set aside for 15 minutes.
2. Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium high heat until just smoking. Add mushrooms and onion; cook, stirring frequently, until onion p ieces are brown and dark bits form on pan bottom, 8-12 minutes. Transfer vegetables to bowl.
3. Add beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid evaporates and meat starts to brown, 6-10 minutes. Add tomatot paste and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add red wine, scraping bottom of pot with wooden spoon to loosen browned bits, and cook until syrupy, 1-2 minutes.

5. When soup is finished, turn off heat. Remove bay leaf. Add gelatin mixture and stir until completely dissolved. Stir in parsley; adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, and serve.
