Add a green salad for a complete meal.

After searing the meat and caramelizing the onions on the stovetop, you'll transfer the pot to the oven, where it will braise to tenderness without any risk of scorching. Adding carrots, potatoes, and sautéed mushrooms a bit later ensures they're perfectly done.

Creamy sweet potatoes and celery root along with tender beef chuck fill out this satisfyingly robust meal.

Chef Jacques Pépin's mother served it at her restaurant, Le Pélican, where she made it with tougher cuts of meat. Jacques likes the flatiron — a long, narrow cut that's extremely lean but becomes tender and stays moist. He doesn't use stock, demi-glace, or even water in his stew, relying on lively red wine for the deep-flavored sauce.

For home cooks, dried chamomile flowers — loose or in tea bags — can replace the hay Bouley uses. Before baking, Bouley seals chicken inside a pot using homemade bread dough, a very old French technique. Store-bought pizza dough works well, too.

Cookbook author Paula Wolfert visited the kitchens of Dar Yacout in Marrakesh, where the cooks still use charcoal fires to make dishes like lush and smoky roasted eggplant salad.
