Recipe Succa de bocca summer stew with beef, or as Erik van Loo called it: “A sukade with balls!” What an incredibly fun afternoon I had during the stew festival in Amsterdam. At the invitation of Bord Bia, we were given the opportunity to make a stew together with a star chef. Of course with Irish grass-fed beef, we opted for the sukade. Erik's favorite piece of stew. During the event I jokingly shouted out the number of times, that man, he can cook! And then it's really cool that you can literally ask someone like that about the best way to make a brisket recipe. Stewing brisket normally takes many hours, but this time we had high-pressure pans.

The assignment was to prepare a citron with a summery touch. Take a look at the photos for yourself, mission more than accomplished!

Cooking with stars…

Well, at least one person at our workstation in the Kookfabriek in Amsterdam had two stars. And it soon became clear that Erik van Loo from Parkheuvel is having a good time in his kitchen. A strong opinion about what something should taste like and what ingredients you need for it. We were put to work at lightning speed, chopping, slicing and seasoning. We could call him a bit of a control freak, because he ended up doing most of the work himself.

Nevertheless, fantastic to stand by and fire all kinds of questions at him. I can also call him a joker, because we laughed terribly. That should certainly be possible in the kitchen! Does he have a healthy amount of arrogance? Yes, because at the end of the afternoon he crowned us as “the best team, with the tastiest stew”, put it in your pocket!

Fortunately, no more 1,5 mtr distance, because you want to stand with your nose next to the winner!

This candied peel recipe has a very long list of ingredients, but I'm sure you already have more than 80% at home. You can't prepare sukade without herbs, of course! I would like to take the time to thank Erik here for a very pleasant afternoon, I found it super instructive. Also my fellow team member Tom Kellerhuis from HP/DeTijd and of course BordBia and Tilly SintNicolaas for the invitation.

  • Then the stewing can begin, see notes for the correct stewing time for the pan you are going to use.
  • At the end, when the pressure is off, add the tomatoes and apricot and let them simmer for 15 minutes until they are soft. (If you put them in right away, you'll cook it to snot and you don't want that).

Tip from Erik: Take a piece of kitchen paper and roll your herbs in it, tie the bag with kitchen twine and make it a little wet under the tap. The paper does not dissolve in the stove!
