Treat your ingredients with care...
- Mushrooms — Use a mix of different mushrooms for more flavor and texture. You can also add dried mushrooms for a deeper umami taste.
- Red wine — Use a good quality red wine that you would drink yourself, as it will greatly affect the flavor of the stew.
Tips & Tricks
- To make the stew thicker, you can add more flour or use a cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with water) to thicken the sauce.
- Serve the stew with crusty bread or over mashed potatoes for a more filling meal.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
Serving advice
Serve the mushroom bourguignon hot, garnished with fresh parsley and with a side of crusty bread or mashed potatoes.
