For a richer flavor, consider searing the beef in batches to ensure proper browning. If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can whisk together a slurry of cornstarch and water (about 1 tablespoon cornstarch to 2 tablespoons water) and stir it into the simmering broth during the last 15 minutes of cooking. Feel free to add other vegetables such as carrots, celery, or mushrooms to the Dutch oven along with the onions for added flavor and nutrients.
