For an even richer flavor, consider adding a bay leaf or a sprig of fresh thyme to the stew during simmering. Remove before serving. If the stew becomes too thick during simmering, add a little more beef broth to reach your desired consistency. This stew tastes even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For a smoother sauce, you can whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the stew during the last 30 minutes of cooking. To make this stew in a slow cooker, sear the beef and sauté the onions as directed in steps 2 and 3. Then, transfer all ingredients to a slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.
