Green beans pick up a "tinney" from the can. Avoid this by opening the can, draining the water, rinse the beans still in the can, put a tablespoon of A&H baking soda in the can and add water. Let this soak while you do other things, then rinse the beans in the can, and continue your preparation. This works for other canned vegetables.

Stewing beef is inherently tough; so those of you who want to use it, use Costco's stew meat. Usually very tender. AND/OR use Adolph's Meat Tenferizer. The recipe works just fine.

I did not care for this recipe. The stated quantities don't work right, it doesn't reduce, you must use flour or corn starch, the pork is sliced much too thin to brown properly, etc. etc. etc.
