"From Grey Poupon, this stew is delicious. I like to thicken the sauce at the end with a flour/water mixture."

I made this yesterday for dinner and it was well received by all. I used beef shanks instead of stew meat, but other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. It was just the right combination of ingredients. The mustard is what made it a 5 star dish for us.
