Hachee is a traditional beef and onion stew found in virtually every Dutch home.  It’s a delicious comfort dish to enjoy during the cold winter months.  The long, slow cooking time produce super tender meat and a rich sauce with wonderful depth of flavor.  Here is an authentic recipe that you’re whole family will enjoy.

The flavor profile of Hachee is significantly different from the traditional beef stews we know here in the U.S.. Hachee uses equal parts of beef and onion and the onions are caramelized.  The featured flavors in this stew are cloves, juniper berries, black peppercorns, bay leaves and vinegar all of which come together to provide a wonderful depth of flavor that is both rich and comforting.  The flavor of Hachee shares similarities with German Sauerbraten.

Cube the beef and pat it dry with a paper towel this will ensure that it browns well.  Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
