You could call this Beef Stroganoff, minus mushrooms, with a strong tarragon flavor, I guess, but it’s actually somewhat of a cross between mushroomless Beef Bourguignon and Stroganoff, with tarragon+++ A general french herb mix (provence, or variants) also works as a substitute for tarragon. It’s actually a modified recipe for paprikas. Serve over noodles or with bread.

You can make this sesame sauce in advance and store it, well covered for up to a week in the refrigerator.

To make a longer keeping sesame paste, grind the sesame seeds even more, add sugar and a bit of salt (about 1 Tbs. of sugar and 1/8th tsp. of salt per 3 Tbs. of sesame seed). Store in a covered jar in the refrigerator. This is great on toast, and you can just add a bit of mirin and soy sauce and optionally dashi stock to make a sesame paste on the spot.

You might need to buy:
  • * 1 Tbs. sugar
  • * 3 Tbs. black sesame seeds
