Boiled beef with Dumplings

Indigenous people love to boil food and boiling beef is no exception. Mom always started by boiling roast cuts with parsley, carrots, thyme and root vegetables in a big pot of stew. Once the stew had set up, she would boil dumplings right in the stew. It was a classic staple in our household and we’d devour it on a cold winter night. This recipe technique actually goes against standard culinary training but it doesn’t matter to me as we’ve been cooking like this for hundreds of years.
