How to Make Wild Mushroom Beef Stew With Herbed Zucchini Noodles

  1. In a small saucepan, bring 4 cups beef broth to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, add 1 cup dried wild mushrooms, and let sit for 5 minutes to rehydrate.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1.5 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes, and sear on all sides until well browned. Remove beef and set aside.
  3. Add 1 large chopped onion, 1 chopped carrot, 1 chopped parsnip, 2 chopped celery stalks, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 2 sprigs of thyme to the Dutch oven. Sauté until onions caramelize.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes until slightly darkened.
  5. Remove mushrooms from broth, reserving the broth. Strain the broth through a coffee filter to remove any sediment. Chop mushrooms roughly.
  6. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons flour over the vegetables, stir for 1 minute, then add 1/2 cup dry red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot.
  7. Pour in the strained beef broth and 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes. Bring to a simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  8. Add the seared beef and chopped mushrooms. Cover and simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes, or until beef is tender.
  9. Stir in 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
  10. For the zucchini noodles: Use a vegetable peeler to create long zucchini strands. Discard the seedy centers.
  11. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini noodles, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper. Toss to coat.
  12. Cook for 1 minute, or until tender-crisp. Add 1 cup egg noodles (optional) and toss until warmed through.
  13. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.
  14. Serve the beef stew over the herbed zucchini noodles.
