Important Notes

⚠️

Cooking meat on the bone provides maximum flavor, making the stew incredibly hearty.

⚠️

The caramelization on the bottom of the pan and the sides of the pot adds immense depth of flavor to the stew – ensure you scrape these bits into the sauce.

⚠️

Wearing rubber gloves to strip the oxtail meat is recommended as it's hot and messy, but the meat should fall off easily after slow cooking.

⚠️

The stew is incredibly versatile; adjust the consistency with water or stock if making soup, or use Parmesan and pasta water to create a ragu-like sauce for pasta.
