NO PEEK BEEF STEW
I got this recipe from an acquaintance during a woman's outdoor weekend. It is different from the other no peek stews in that it uses ginger ale for the liquid. Great served over egg noodles.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: A chuck roast or stew meat is a good option, as it has a lot of connective tissue that will break down and tenderize during the cooking process.
- Brown the beef before stewing: This will help to develop flavor and color.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the stew. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, celery, onions, and garlic.
- Use a good quality broth or stock: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the stew. If you don't have any homemade broth or stock, you can use a store-bought variety.
- Season the stew well: Salt, pepper, and garlic are essential seasonings for any stew. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Let the stew simmer for a long time: This will allow the flavors to meld and the meat to become tender.
- Serve the stew with a side of bread or rice: This will help to soak up the delicious juices.
Conclusion:
No-peek stew is a hearty, flavorful, and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a very easy dish to make, and it can be tailored to your own preferences. With a little planning, you can have a delicious no-peek stew on the table in no time.
