  • Tradition of Stew

    Christmas stew is considered a traditional meal, in many German, Irish and Mexican households, during the Christmas season. Despite being similar to regular stew, having it only once a year makes it a suitable holiday tradition. In order to make the stew, simply put all of the desired ingredients into a large pot. The pot can be heated in the oven or on the stove. It should be put on medium heat and cooked for several hours. Once finished, it can serve a large number of holiday guests.

    A variation of the meat stew is one that contains oysters. The oysters are boiled in their liquid, after sauteing butter and shallots in a pan. Milk, cream, sherry, salt and pepper are added as the broth.
