Classic French Pot Au Feu Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

When is a stew not a stew? When it is a pot au feu This classic french comfort dish is stewed meats with vegetables, but the difference is the dish can be served in at least two if not three ways: the marrow is removed from the bone and spread on toast as a starter, the broth is served as a soup, and the meat is plated with the vegetables. It takes the better part of an afternoon to prepare, but is low maintenance and makes the house smell wonderful. You will need cheesecloth and kitchen twine for this recipe.
