daube
Slow-cooked French casserole
A daube is a French braised meat dish, typically beef, slow-cooked in wine with vegetables and herbs: The daube had simmered for hours until the meat fell apart.
The word also refers to the cooking vessel or method.
Daubes are rustic, hearty fare—the kind of dish that improves overnight.
