============ EGG WASH ===============
Egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water
In a large stock pot, or Dutch oven, over medium heat, add the olive oil.
Season the veal with salt and pepper. Season the flour with Essence. Dredge
the veal in the seasoned flour, coating each side completely. When the oil
is hot, brown the veal for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until very brown
on all sides. Remove the veal and set aside. Add the onions to the pan and
season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes Add the celery and carrots
and continue to saute for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the
garlic, bay leaves, and thyme. Cook for 1 minute. Add the beer to the pan,
scrapping the bottom and sides to loosen the browned particles. Add the
stock. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce the heat to medium low. Add
the veal and simmer for 2 hours. In a mixing bowl, toss the mushrooms,
potatoes, corn and parsley with salt and pepper. Add to the pot and continue
to cook for 1 hour or until the sauce is stew−like and the meat is tender.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt Add the lard and work it in
with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water, 1
tablespoon at a time. Form the dough into a smooth ball. Wrap the dough in
plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove the dough from the
refrigerator and place on a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough into
a rectangle about 20 inches in diameter and 1/8−inch thick. Fold the dough
into fourths and carefully remove the dough from the surface. Pour the stew
