- 4For our daube Provençal recipe, we started with the test kitchen's reliable set of techniques for turning tough but flavorful beef into a tender stew and then concentrated on selecting and managing the complex blend of ingredients that define a daube Niçoise: earthy cèpes, briny Niçoise olives, bright tomatoes, floral orange peel, and the regional herbs of thyme and bay.
- 5A few anchovies added complexity without a fishy taste, and salt pork contributed rich body.
- 6A bottle of wine added bold flavor to our daube Provençal recipe and needed just a little bit of cooking to lose its raw bite.

- 9* Serve this French beef stew with egg noodles or boiled potatoes. If niçoise olives are not available, kalamata olives, though not authentic, can be substituted. Cabernet Sauvignon is our favorite wine for this recipe, but Côtes du Rhône and Zinfandel also work. Our favorite cut of beef for this recipe is chuck-eye roast, but any boneless roast from the chuck will work. Because the tomatoes are added just before serving, it is preferable to use canned whole tomatoes and dice them yourself--uncooked, they are more tender than canned diced tomatoes. Once the salt pork, thyme, and bay leaves are removed in step 4, the daube can be cooled and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Before reheating, skim the hardened fat from the surface, then continue with the recipe.
- 10¾ ounce dried porcini mushrooms, rinsed well
- 113 ½ pound boneless beef chuck-eye roast, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 2-inch chunks
- 121 ½ teaspoons table salt
- 131 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 144 tablespoons olive oil
- 155 ounces Salt pork, rind removed
- 164 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch rounds (about 2 cups)
- 172 medium onions, halved and cut into 1/8-inch-thick slices (about 4 cups)
- 184 medium cloves garlic, sliced thin
- 192 tablespoons tomato paste
- 20⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 211 bottle red wine (bold, such as a Cabernet)
- 221 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 231 cup water
- 244 strips orange zest (from one orange), removed with vegetable peeler, each strip about 3 inches long, cleaned of white pith, and cut lengthwise into thin strips
- 251 cup niçoise olives, pitted and drained well
- 263 anchovy fillets, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
- 275 sprigs fresh thyme, tied together with kitchen twine
- 282 bay leaves
- 291 can (14 1/2 ounces) whole tomatoes, drained and cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 302 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
- 31Instructions
- 321. Cover mushrooms with 1 cup hot tap water in small microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap, cut several steam vents in plastic with paring knife, and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. Let stand until mushrooms soften, about 5 minutes. Lift mushrooms from liquid with fork and chop into 1/2-inch pieces (you should have about 4 tablespoons). Strain liquid through fine-mesh strainer lined with 1 paper towel into medium bowl. Set mushrooms and liquid aside.
- 332. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position; heat oven to 325 degrees. Dry beef thoroughly with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking; add half of beef. Cook without moving pieces until well browned, about 2 minutes on each side, for total of 8 to 10 minutes, reducing heat if fat begins to smoke. Transfer meat to medium bowl. Repeat with remaining oil and remaining meat.
- 343. Reduce heat to medium and add salt pork, carrots, onions, garlic, and tomato paste to now-empty pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until light brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Slowly add wine, gently scraping pan bottom to loosen browned bits. Add broth, water, beef, and any juices in bowl. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to full simmer. Add mushrooms and their liquid, orange zest, 1/2 cup olives, anchovies, thyme, and bay, distributing evenly and arranging beef so it is completely covered by liquid; cover partially and place in oven. Cook until fork inserted in beef meets little resistance (meat should not be falling apart), 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
- 354. Discard salt pork, thyme, and bay leaves. Add tomatoes and remaining 1/2 cup olives; warm over medium-high heat until heated through, about 1 minute. Cover pot and allow stew to settle, about 5 minutes. Using spoon, skim excess fat from surface of stew. Stir in parsley and serve.

Line roles and recipe starts · code + Haiku
What K0 does to it
K0 labels every Level 1 line with its role, and marks the line where each recipe starts. Every later step reads these labels: K1 takes the title and servings lines, K2 the ingredient lines, K4 the method lines.
- Why a model is needed here. This is a pdf, so its Level 1 is plain transcribed text with no role tags. A web-page Level 1 carries tags and skips the model entirely.
- Code guesses first. Code gives every line a rough first role.
- Haiku checks. Haiku 5.5, thinking off, with the full verbatim rules for this step, sees all 35 lines (each cut at 240 characters) with code's guess. It returns one role per line and the line where each recipe's title starts.
- Code keeps the valid answers. A role is kept only if the line number and role are real. A line Haiku skips keeps code's guess, and if the call fails, code's guesses stand.

K1
Title, Cook Time, Extras · code + Haiku
What K1 does to it
K1 fills three tables: Title (name, servings, total time), Cook Time (prep, cook, total) and Extras (text that is not a step or an ingredient, such as the headnote).
- Code drafts all three. Title: the first title lines. Servings: a pattern match for lower and upper numbers, with leftover words sent to Extras. Times: a pattern match for each label and its value. Extras: the headnote, note and label lines.
- Haiku checks two things. Haiku 5.5, thinking off, with Ryan's R1 to R21 rules, sees only the lines that are not ingredients or method (here lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 31), plus code's draft. It returns the Cook Time label and value pairs, and which lines go to Extras with a name for each. It never writes the title, the servings or the Extras text.
- Code keeps only what is printed. A time is kept only if its value is printed on a time line. Extras text is always copied word for word from Level 1. If the call fails, code's draft stands.
- Then the Nov 4 rules step. Code, right after K1: a "Takes" line fills the total time (R82), a title loses a closing colon (R80), "Serves 4 as a main, 8 or more as a side" gives 4 to 8 (R81), and an Extras note keeps its mark or number in its name (R77).

| untitled | For our daube Provençal recipe, we started with the test kitchen's reliable set of techniques for turning tough but flavorful beef into a tender stew and then concentrated on selecting and managing the complex blend of ingredients that define a daube Niçoise: earthy cèpes, briny Niçoise olives, bright tomatoes, floral orange peel, and the regional herbs of thyme and bay. |
| untitled | * Serve this French beef stew with egg noodles or boiled potatoes. If niçoise olives are not available, kalamata olives, though not authentic, can be substituted. Cabernet Sauvignon is our favorite wine for this recipe, but Côtes du Rhône and Zinfandel also work. Our favorite cut of beef for this recipe is chuck-eye roast, but any boneless roast from the chuck will work. Because the tomatoes are added just before serving, it is preferable to use canned whole tomatoes and dice them yourself--uncooked, they are more tender than canned diced tomatoes. Once the salt pork, thyme, and bay leaves are removed in step 4, the daube can be cooled and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Before reheating, skim the hardened fat from the surface, then continue with the recipe. |
