I actually tried making 'Holiday Stew Cream' to see what kind of stew it is

In August 2024, House Foods released ' Holiday Stew Cream '. The '

Holiday Stew for Beef ' released on the same day was interesting because it had a different taste from regular beef stew , so I actually made and ate 'Holiday Stew Cream' to see what it tasted like.

I bought some chicken and vegetables to make 'Holiday Stew Cream.'

First, fry the ingredients.

Add water and bring to a simmer.

Next, add the roux and continue simmering.

Finally, add the milk and simmer until it thickens.

Below is the cream stew made using 'Holiday Stew Cream'.

When you eat it, it has a smooth texture and a rich taste with the sweetness of the vegetables and the umami of the meat. One of the editorial staff who tried it commented that it may be less milky than a typical cream stew. Another interesting point is that the taste of white pepper is slightly spicy. However, although the package says that it has a 'faint herbal scent,' I couldn't detect any herbal scent.

The price of 'Holiday Stew Cream' is an open price, and at the time of writing, a set of 5 is sold at Amazon.co.jp for 1,702 yen (tax included) (340 yen per piece).
