Slow-cooker beef bourguignon soup

Beef Bourguignon is a classic French stew that is rich, hearty, and perfect for any cozy dinner. By using a slow cooker, this recipe simplifies the cooking process while still delivering all the traditional flavors you love. Simply prepare the ingredients, set your slow cooker, and let it do the work for you. This guide offers an easy and efficient approach to making a delicious Beef Bourguignon Soup that is sure to become a family favorite.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Chop the onion and celery.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
- Slice the carrots and mushrooms.
- Cut the beef into bite-sized chunks if not already done.
2. Sear the Beef (Optional, for enhanced flavor):
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef chunks to the skillet and sear them until browned on all sides. This step is optional but will add depth of flavor to your soup.
3. Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker:
- Transfer the seared beef (if searing was done) to the slow cooker.
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, tomato puree, red wine, beef broth, sliced carrots, chopped celery, fresh thyme, and sliced mushrooms to the slow cooker.
- Stir to combine all ingredients well.
4. Cook the Soup:
- Cover the slow cooker with its lid.
- Set it to cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours. The soup is done when the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
5. Adjust Seasonings:
- Taste the soup and add salt, pepper, or additional thyme as desired to suit your taste preferences.
6. Serve:
- Ladle the soup into bowls.
- Serve hot, garnished with a sprig of fresh thyme or a sprinkle of parsley if you like.

Tips:

- Searing the beef before adding it to the slow cooker can enhance its flavor.

- Use a good quality red wine for better depth of flavor.

- For a thicker soup, you can mix 2 tablespoons of flour with a little cold water and stir it into the soup during the last hour of cooking.

- For added richness, consider stirring in a tablespoon of cold butter just before serving.

- Serve the soup with a slice of crusty bread to soak up the delicious broth.

By following these steps, you can effortlessly create a flavorful and comforting Beef Bourguignon Soup using your slow cooker. The combination of tender beef, robust wine, and aromatic vegetables makes this dish a wonderful option for any meal. Enjoy your homemade culinary masterpiece with friends and family!
