    Doug/ Julia Griffin: Absolutely delicious! You don't taste the Cumin or Tamari. It gives it a great flavor, kind of boosts the beef. Browned the beef real good to get good drippings. put it all into the crock pot. Mixed all the flavors in the dripping pan and then poured over the vegetables and beef. We did cut back a bit on the carrot, but this is a great recipe.

    The title is « stew » and yet there are two references to it being soup. These are two different things in my view. Because I was really looking for a stew, I reduced the beef stock by half. This is now in the crockpot. Hoping for a stew when its done, or a very thick hearty soup.
