Mine involves canning, but it's excellent. Can either beef or venison as your normally would in pint jars. This is the work intensive part. To make stroganhoff, just dump the desired amount (1 or 2 pints) into a medium sauce pan, heat on medium and stir in sour cream (2 cups / pint) and voila.

Stroganoff is more than beef and sour cream last time I checked. |

Filet Mignon, morels, shallots, etc. |

Take ye beef and stroke it off.
Take ye beef juice and place in ye pot with cream, butter, salt, pepper, and flour. Cut up another beef into serving size pieces, preferably after beef has expired, much harder when they are still breathing Cook ye beef well over fire or on hot steel. Mix some mushrooms in ye gravy and pour over ye beef. Serve well andf still heated. |

I take my beef stroganoff very seriously!! I've been using the classic Joy of Cooking recipe for years. It is the closest I've ever come to beef stroganoff as it was served to me in Russia. So my best advice, to be true and authentic, is to use the Joy of Cooking recipe.
Best cookbook I've ever owned. Nothing else comes close to that book's quality. |

I add flour to make a gravey as well. I also add kitchen bouchet and/or maggi liquid seasoning stuff. I add a can of mushrooms sometimes. |

Cube meat, toss in flour seasoned w salt/pepper to coat. Brown quickly in butter. You want the meat raw in the middle still.
Add diced onions to pan. You may need to add some more butter. The moisture from the onions should deglaze the pan. Add shrooms once onions are translucent. You can further deglaze the pan with some cooking sherry. Add beef broth to pan, bring to a boil. If it does not thicken to the desired consistency, you can make a thickener with some broth and flour or a beurre manie. Remember that a sauce thickened with a flour, roux, etc will not reach it's full potential consistency until it boils. Add browned meat and cook to desired doneness. Stir in sour cream (DO NOT use low fat or "light") immediately before serving over noodles, dumplings, or your starch of choice. |

Are you coating the meat with your seasoned flour before you brown it? I have found that the secret to any stew or sauce with beef in it is to get a good sear on the outside of the meat before adding anything else. I have found doing this with my Hungarian Goulash recipe takes it from good to excellent. |

In a really hot pan
-sear beef (lightly seasoned) and remove from pan. -cook onions or shallots (lightly salted) till carmalization starts. cook in clarified butter or 50/50 butter to EVOO. Either of these take the super-high heat better than butter. add mushrooms to the mix towards the end of onion cookings, if you are into that kind of thing -Deglaze with dry red wine (fireball!!) toss in the seared (should be completely raw in the middle) beef cubes, and pour over beef stock. -As the mix simmers, a tablespoon of dijon mustard goes in. If you are a pro, you can achieve proper consistency just by keeping your proportions right, and reducing the stock appropriately. If you are not up to that, you can thicken with some roux (delicious) or corn starch slurry (a little lighter/healthier) -You want to achieve a slightly too- runny consistency at this point. Remove from heat, and finish with enough sour cream to make it creamy. serve over egg noodles. |

A very hot pan helps but usually necessitates using clarified butter. Whole butter will likely burn. |

This is a family favorite made with beef tenderloin.
America's Test Kitchen Beef Stroganoff Americas Test Kitchen Beef Stroganoff Recipe Author: Americas Test Kitchen Cookbook Rating: / (1 votes) Description: Serves 4 Prep Time: 10 mins Total Time: 45 Mins Ingredients: Salt 8 ounces of egg noodles (3 cups) 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 12 ounces white button mushrooms, trimmed and halved 12 ounces beef tenderloin, cut into 1/8 inch strips Pepper 3/4 cup dry red wine 1 onion minced 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar 1 teaspoon tomato paste 1 tablespoon all purpose flour 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth 1/2 cup sour cream Preparation: 1. Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add 1 tablespoon salt and the noodles (Light n fluffy extra wide noodles are the best) and cook, stirring often, until they are almost tender but still firm to the bite. Drain the noodles, then return to the pot and toss with 2 tablespoons of the butter. Cover to keep warm. 2. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a 12 inch skillet over medium high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, then transfer to a bowl. 3. Pat the beef dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet and return to medium high heat until just smoking. Brown the beef, about 5 minutes, then transfer to the bowl with the mushrooms. 4. Add 1/4 cup of the wine to the skillet and return to medium heat. Simmer, scraping up any browned bits, until syrupy, about 1 minute. Transfer the wine to the bowl with the mushrooms and beef. 5. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet and melt over medium heat. Add the onion, brown sugar, and tomato past and cook until the onion is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the broth and remaining 1/2 cup wine and simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. 6. Add any accumulated juices from the mushrooms and beef. Stir about 1/2 cup of the sauce into the sour cream, then stir the sour cream mixture into the sauce. Add the mushrooms and beef and let warm through. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve over the warm buttered egg noodles. Notes: Sour cream can curdle if added directly to hot liquid. To prevent this, temper the sour cream by stirring a little of the stewing liquid into it and then stirring the warmed sour cream mixture back into the pan of stroganoff. To ensure that the stroganoff and noodles are done at the same time, start cooking the mushrooms (step 2) while you wait for the water to cook the noodles to come to a boil. Preparation Time: 45 Min Difficulty: easy Portion: 4 servings Country/Region: USA Vegetarian: No Cost: Last Updated: Sun 29 Jun 2008 22:30:09 MDT viewed: 1701 times viewed EDIT –– note that I only use about 1/2-2/3 of an onion versus the 1 onion in the recipe. |

ZING! Ouch. Ok. Fair enough. Uncle Coldbore's Carne Diablo This recipe works well with both pork shoulder or stewing beef. It's not a true stroganoff but it is really tasty. 1-2 lbs stewing beef or pork shoulder.Cut into 1 1/2 in cubes. You'll want these a little bigger than bite size as they will break up during cooking. Coat in a dry rub consisting of pasilla or ancho chili powder, powdered garlic, powdered onion, sea salt, black pepper, some chipotle chili powder , cumin and some allspice. I like to add a little ginger to brighten it up. can of beef stock 1 onion. 1 pasilla pepper chopped. a couple of dried ancho chilis chopped fine. mushrooms (optional) 1 shot of fresh made espresso(you can use instant) salt and pepper to taste In a big sauce pan, in hot oil saute all the dry rubbed cubes of meat until nicely seared on all side. This may take a couple of batches to do so sear some, remove and sear more. Remove all when seared. Saute up the onions and chilis in the oil from the meat saute. Add in the mushrooms if you are using them. When the onions are nice and glassy, add all the meat back in. Add stock and espresso. Submerge the entire mess under a bottle of two buck chuck merlot. The meat should be submerged. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer. Let simmer at least a couple of hours. With pork I let it go 2-3 with beef it will be a shorter cooking time. Let simmer to reduce the wine. You can add a tomato sauce can if you like but it will thicken up nicely from the reduction and the meat juices. A roux will be great to finish as well if you like it richer. Serve over rice or noodles. Add a dollop of sour creme or creme fraiche. |

Beef Stroganoff
1 pound beef sirloin 4 Tablespoons of flour 1/4 tsp salt 4 tablespoon butter 1 3 oz can of sliced mushrooms (fresh mushrooms are better) 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 clove garlic 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1 1/4 cups of beef stock 1 cup sour cream 2 tablespoon of dry, white wine 1 1/2 lbs of cooked and buttered egg noodles. Cut the meat think and against the grain. Mince the garlic. Combine 1 tbsp flour and 1/2 tsp salt. Coat meat with flour mixture. Heat skilled, then add 2 tablespoons of butter. when the butter melts, add sirloin strips and brown them quickly on both sides. Don't overcook as it toughens the meat. Throw the meat it, toss it around (like stir fry) then remove. Add mushrooms (drained if canned), chopped onions, and minced garlic. Cook 3 or 4 minutes or until onion is crisp and tender. Remove mushrooms and garlic from the pan (you can put it in the same bowl as the meat) and leave the drippings in the pan. Add two tablespoons of butter to the pan. Blend in three tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Add tomato paste. Stir in cold beef stock or one 10 1/2 ounce can of condensed beef broth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat till thickened and bubbly. Return the meat, mushroom and garlic to the skillet. Stir in sour cream and dry white wine. Heat thoroughly. This won't take long and you don't want to over heat the sour cream. Do not boil. Keep warm over hot water (so you have a pot of hot water and you pour the Stroganoff into a smaller pot which is then placed in the pot of hot water). Serve over hot, buttered noodles. ![]() |

Here's one that dates back to the 1930s ( I have modded it over time ).....I also have the instructions for preparation. Keeps my timing right....you may not need them.
INGREDIENTS GROUP A ½ Cup of flour 3 Teaspoons of Salt 1 Teaspoon of Black Pepper1/8 teaspoon of each:
Season Salt, Hickory Salt, Ground Sage, Oregano, Parsley, Dill ( heaping is fine except with the Dill…a
little goes a long ways ) ( NOTE: these will be mixed together into a batter for the
meat and set to the side for now )GROUP B 3 Cans ( normal 10 ounce ) ofCampbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup 2 Cans ( normal 10 ounce ) of Campbell’s
Chicken Noodle Soup ( strained to remove Chicken and Noodles ) OR fully whipped by a blender
into a creamy texture. (NOTE: Mix these soups in one bowl or and set to the side. You’ll need a large, oven safe pot to put
this soup ( and the other ingredients ) into at the last step GROUP C
<o:p></o:p> 3 lbs of Stew Cut Beef 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil 2 Tablespoons of Worcestershire ( Lee Perrin’s ) Sauce ¼ Cup of your favorite Red Wine 1 Tablespoon of Minced Garlic 1 & ½ Cups of Minced Onion ( Note: these will be mixed and the meat tenderized, the
flour mix above will be added during the tenderizing ) ( Note: the best way to prepare the meat is to prepare this
mix a couple of days in advance and let it sit in the refrigerator while the
acids of the vinegar in the Lee Perrin’s,
onions and garlic break down the structure of the meat. This makes a VERY tender stew. Also, only use the prescribed amount of Lee
Perrin’s. Vinegar breaks down the
cellular structure of the meat and helps to tenderize it quickly. Too much and the meat will turn to
paste. You do NOT want that. ) GROUP D 1 Pound of Fresh
sliced mushrooms. 1/2 Cup Water GROUP E
2 Cups of Sour Cream ( to be added just before meal is done
and warmed for a few minutes before serving )
Adding this is the last step before serving.STEP ONE: You are going to prepare a batter for the stew meat/onion/
garlic mix in Step 3. This batter will
be added to the meat just before cooking.
You will want to set this mix aside in a separate bowl or dish until you
need it. Mix the following: ½ Cup of flour 3 Teaspoons of Salt ( if
using the additional spices listed below.
If not, then use 3 and ½
teaspoons of salt. 1 Teaspoon of Pepper THEN, feel free to add the following to the mix (this is not
necessary but adds nice flavor to the dish ) : 1/8 Teaspoon of
each: Season Salt, Hickory Salt, Sage (
ground ), Oregano, Parsley, Dill Mix with the flour, salt and pepper from above. Set the flour and spice mix to the side. You will use it in Step THREE when ready. STEP TWO: In this step, you are making a mix of two types of soup that
will be used when the meat mix is finished browning and the oven is up to temp.
It’s the body of the sauce for the
finished stroganov. You’ll set this mix aside in a bowl ( or your large oven
pot ) until you are ready for that step. Feel free to lightly warm the sauce when you
start working on cooking the meat. ( Step 4 ) Do the following: In a separate container, mix
together the 3 cans of Cream of Mushroom soup and the 2 cans of STRAINED ( or
WHIPPED ) Chicken Noodle Soup
together. Set to the side separate from
the other ingredients. Note: If you strain the Chicken Noodle soup you can
pulverize the separated noodles and chicken into a mash that can be "re-mixed”
in with the chicken noodle "stock” and the cream of mushroom soup. You could also throw the noodles and meat
away and use only the "broth”. ( I do not like to waste food so I do not do
this ) I prefer to whip the cans of soup
in a blender. It is important to use
actual Chicken Noodle soup as compared to chicken stock. Chicken Stock does NOT have the same flavor
as Chicken Soup, nor does it impart the same flavor. STEP THREE: Here, you are making a mix of meat, spices, garlic and
onion. This will, depending on how long
you want to tenderize the meat, eventually be battered with the flour mix you
made in step one. You can do this entire step earlier than the
rest of the recipe and let the meat tenderize for a couple of days in the
fridge. See notes. The flour is only added and pounded to into
the mix just before cooking the meat. Take the 3 lbs. of stew meat and add the following: 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil 2 Tablespoons of Worcestershire ( Lee Perrin’s ) Sauce ¼ Cup of your favorite Red Wine ( optional ) 1 Tablespoon of Minced Garlic 1 & ½ Cups of Minced Onion Mix thoroughly and kneed, roll or pound the meat to
tenderize it. If you wish to set it in the fridge for a couple of days to
further tenderize, you can do so now.
Just before you cook the meat sift the FLOUR/SPICE MIX onto the meat. Pound the flour mix into the meat and
liberally dust the meat with the flour as you roll and pound away. Set the whole meat/flour mix to the side in a bowl until you
are ready to brown the meat. ( Note: the best way to prepare the meat is to prepare this
mix a couple of days in advance ( but WITHOUT the flour ) and let it sit in the refrigerator while the
acids of the vinegar in the Lee Perrin’s, onions and garlic break down the
structure of the meat. Add the flour and pound the flour into the meat on the
day you prepare the stroganov. This
makes a VERY tender stew. Again, do
not add extra Lee Perrin’s or any vinegar or you will over tenderize the
meat and it will turn into a paste. ) STEP FOUR: It’s time to get the meat/flour mix browning. Put the meat mix into a large frying pan and turn the stove
top heat on to well under medium. Slowly
begin browning the meat. Stir
frequently. STEP FIVE: Start the Pre Heat for your oven to 300 degrees while you
are working on the meat. STEP SIX:
Once the meat is nearly browned and everything is
becoming a nice sauce, add the mushrooms and then slowly include the 1/2 cup of
water as you continue stirring. Cook at
medium ( or just under ) until everything is a nice even brown and the
edges of the meat are beginning to darken up a bit more than the sauce. Stir frequently while cooking the mushrooms
into the sauce. STEP SEVEN: As the meat mix and the mushrooms are browning; put the mixed
soups from Step Two in a large suitable pot or pan ( that can be placed into
the oven ) and begin warming the soups
on medium low. When the meat and
mushrooms are done you can add them that pot of warming soups. Stir well.
When the oven preheat is ready, place the pot of stroganov in the oven.
Cook lightly in the oven for 1 and ½ hours at 300 degrees. Stir well once every twenty minutes or so. STEP EIGHT: After the 1 and ½ hours, turn the temp down to 200 degrees
and let the mix stop boiling. After the boiling has stopped, add the 2 cups of
Sour Cream. Mix Well. Let cook another 20
minutes ( at or under 200 degrees ) WITHOUT BOILING once the sour cream has
been added. Prepare your noodles and
toast or heat your bread at this time. Make a nice bowl of thick noodles at this
time. Serve over noodles and with your favorite bread and salad. |
