- Cupful (8 oz) diced celery

How did it turn out?

Demi-glace is not that easy to find (at least not in a regular grocery store) and it can be very expensive.

This recipe sounds just as good and has step-by-step instructions for those who don't know their way around the kitchen.  8)

Sounds fine, nice and easy if you like guinness, otherwise just use some red wine.  Use clarified butter tho or canola oil since butter will burn at a temp required to brown the beef nicely.  I'd use an el-cheapo beef and probably simmer a little longer than 90 mins or until it gets tender.  Just use veal stock (beef stock) and let it reduce or thicken it with a brown roux if required. 

Noobs: wash the leeks carefully, and 'seasoning' means salt.

Leek



Demi-glace is a rich reduction of beef or veal broth made from bones into a velvety brown sauce.  Restaurants use it a lot.
