    Title: Beef With Anchovies
    Categories: Italian
    Yield: 6 Servings

    4 Salted anchovies;
    - washed, bones removed
    Nutmeg; grated
    1 Lemon; juice of
    2 1/4 lb Braising steak (1 kg);
    - such as chuck
    2 tb Olive oil
    2/3 c Dry white wine (150 ml)

    Chop 2 of the anchovies and season with some grated nutmeg and 3 to
    4 drops of lemon juice.

    Using a sharp knife, make 10 cuts in the meat and insert the
    anchovy mixture.

    Heat the oil in a large flame-proof pot, preferably made of
    earthenware, over low heat, add the remaining anchovies, and
    sprinkle with a little lemon juice.

    Cook, mixing with a fork until the anchovies dissolve.

    Add the meat and cook over medium-low heat for about 3 hours,
    splashing with wine occasionally and then several tablespoons of
    water.

    When the meat is cooked, remove the pot from the heat and serve
    immediately.

    Tips:

    You can make your own salt-cured anchovies. Use a quantity of salt
    that is equal to a quarter of the weight of the anchovies. Remove
    the head and entrails but leave the spine. Arrange the anchovies in
    clean, sterilized jars in dense layers, sprinkling each layer with
    salt. Seal with a lid and store in a cool place for at least
    2 months, with a weight on the lid.
