Answer.com defines STEW as a transitory verb - To cook (food) by simmering or boiling slowly. This recipe fits that definition perfectly. A transitory verb is defined furhter as " Expressing an action carried from the subject to the object; requiring a direct object to omplete meaning. Used of a verb or verb construction. Characterized by or involving transition'" So when one says - "I am going to eat that me" probably does not apply, right? This is a great comfort food!
