     Title: Braised Brisket & Roots
Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Wine
     Yield: 8 Servings

     1 tb Canola oil
     2 lb Flat, first-cut brisket
     3 md Onions
     6    Allspice berries
     2 ts Chopped fresh thyme
     1 ts Sweet paprika
   1/2 ts Salt
   1/2 ts Freshly ground pepper
     2    Bay leaves
     1 c  Dry vermouth
     3 c  Beef broth
     4 md Carrots
     3 md Parsnips
     1 md Rutabaga
     1 ts Dijon mustard
     2 ts Arrowroot
 1 1/2 tb Water

 Preheat oven to 325ºF/160ºC. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over
 medium-high heat. Add brisket and cook until browned, 3 to
 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate and set
 aside.

 Add onions to the pot; cook, stirring frequently, until
 softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in allspice, thyme,
 paprika, salt, pepper and bay leaves, then pour in
 vermouth (or wine). Bring to a boil. Cook for 3 minutes.

 Stir in broth and return the brisket to the pot along
 with any accumulated juices. Bring to a simmer. Cover,
 place in the oven and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Meanwhile, cut
 carrots, parsnips and rutabaga into 2-by-1/2-inch sticks.

 Transfer brisket to a plate. Using a slotted spoon,
 remove and discard bay leaves and allspice berries. Stir
 mustard into the sauce. Add the carrots, parsnips and
 rutabaga. Return the brisket to the pot; cover and bake
 for 1 hour more.

 Test vegetables and brisket for tenderness by piercing
 with the tip of a sharp knife. As they get done, transfer
 to a cutting board or platter, cover with foil and set
 aside. If necessary, continue to cook, testing for
 doneness every 20 minutes. Total cooking time for the
 brisket may range from 2 1/2 to 5 hours, depending on the
 particular piece of meat.

 Skim fat from the sauce. Place the pot over high heat and
 bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring
 occasionally, to reduce and intensify flavors. Dissolve
 arrowroot in 1 tablespoon water (or cornstarch in 2
 tablespoons water); add to the simmering sauce and cook,
 stirring constantly, just until thickened, about 10
 seconds.

 Slice the brisket thinly against the grain and arrange
 slices on a serving platter. Using a slotted spoon, mound
 the vegetables around the brisket. Spoon half the sauce
 over the meat and vegetables; serve remaining sauce
 separately.
