Number Of Ingredients 16

4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 dried bay leaf
3 whole cloves
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
3 strips orange zest, (2 to 3 inches each), plus 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped (about 1 cup)
2 garlic cloves, crushed with the flat side of a large knife
1 celery stalk, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1/2 cup)
3 medium carrots, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 bottle (750 mL) rich red wine, such as Cotes de Provence, Cotes du Rhone, Syrah, or Shiraz
4 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup homemade or low-sodium store-bought beef or chicken stock
1/2 cup nicoise olives, pitted and rinsed
Coarse salt

Steps:

  • Make a bouquet garni: Put thyme, bay leaf, cloves, peppercorns, and zest on a piece of cheesecloth; tie into a bundle. Combine onion, garlic, celery, carrots, bouquet garni, and wine in a large non-reactive bowl. Add beef, and toss to coat. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator 12 to 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Remove beef from wine mixture; pat dry with paper towels. Set aside. Transfer wine mixture to a heavy pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook half of the beef, turning, until deeply browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining oil and beef.
  • Stir tomato paste into stock; add to the skillet, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add to wine mixture. Stir in olives and beef. Season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  • Cover daube; transfer to oven. Cook 2 hours. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees if daube starts to boil. After 2 hours, stir in orange juice. Cook until beef is very tender, about 30 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even browning.
  • Use a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot that can hold all the ingredients comfortably.
  • Do not boil the daube; simmer it gently over low heat to allow the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender.
  • Add the vegetables and herbs in stages, starting with the root vegetables and ending with the more delicate herbs.
  • Season the daube to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices as desired.
  • Serve the daube over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice to soak up all the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Provencal white wine beef daube is a classic French stew that is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy family meal. The combination of tender beef, flavorful vegetables, and aromatic herbs and spices creates a rich and satisfying dish that is sure to impress.
