Directions: |
Directions:Whisk marinade ingredients together in a medium bowl and add meat, making sure all is submerged. Set aside for 1 hour. Meanwhile, heat half the olive oil and butter in a large stockpot. Add the chopped onion, carrot and celery. Cook over medium to high heat until nicely golden, but not burned, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue cooking until they are just wilted, several more minutes. Remove and set aside. Dry and flour steak, removing excess flour. Brown in oil and butter over medium heat, being careful not to burn flour. Remove and set aside. Return vegetables along with sliced onion. Add 5 c beef stock. Add seasonings and simmer 15 minutes, skimming if necessary. Add steak and simmer 10 more minutes and add escarole, simmering until escarole is just tender (may add more stock if soup is too thick). DO NOT overcook. Preheat over to very hot (500°). Place bones in a single layer in a roasting pan. Break carrots and celery in large pieces and arrange them and onions among the bones. Roast for 30 - 45 minutes until meat and vegetables start to brown and even burn a little. Dump into a large stock pot. Add ½” water to bottom of roasting pan and dissolve drippings. Pour over bones and add water to cover bones with several inches water. Bring to a boil and add tomato paste. Stir well and add seasonings. Cook, barely simmering for several hours, adding hot water as necessary. Strain and boil, reducing to intensify flavor. Cool broth and skim fat. Refrigerate or freeze in tightly covered container. |
