Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Pat the bear meat cubes dry with paper towels.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensuring the meat is dry helps it form a better crust when searing.
2
In a shallow dish, whisk together the all-purpose flour, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Aproximativ 2 min.
3
Toss the bear meat cubes in the flour mixture until evenly coated on all sides, shaking off any excess.
Aproximativ 5 min.
4
In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, cook the diced salt pork over medium heat until the fat has rendered and the pieces are crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Aproximativ 7 min.
Nota bucătarului: If the salt pork doesn't render enough fat, add the optional olive oil.
5
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, sear the coated bear meat in the hot fat until a deep brown crust forms on all sides.
Aproximativ 15 min.
Nota bucătarului: Don't rush this step; a good sear builds a deep, savory flavor base for the stew.
6
Remove the seared meat from the pot and set aside on a plate.
Aproximativ 1 min.
7
Add the chopped shallots to the pot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
Aproximativ 3 min.
8
Stir in the Dijon mustard, honey, and crushed black peppercorns, and cook for one minute until fragrant.
Aproximativ 1 min.
9
Pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to release all the flavorful fond. Bring to a simmer.
Aproximativ 3 min.
10
Return the seared meat to the pot along with the smashed garlic cloves. Add enough water or beef broth if needed so the liquid comes about two-thirds of the way up the meat.
Aproximativ 2 min.
11
Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for 3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
Aproximativ 3 ore
Nota bucătarului: Check the liquid level every hour and add a splash of water if it seems to be reducing too quickly.
12
Remove the garlic cloves, taste the sauce, and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if desired before serving.
Aproximativ 1 min.
