Directions

Place parsley, dill, bay leaf and thyme into a spice bag.

Put meat into large narrow pot or bowl that will just hold it, leaving room for liquid (cut meat in ½ to fit if necessary).

In medium saucepan combine onion, carrots, pepper, garlic, shallots, spice bag, cloves, spices, apple juice and water.

Bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmering and cook for 3 min.

Stir in wine.

Preheat oven to 300 F.

Drain meat, pushing off vegetables.

Add reserved marinade, spice bag and tomato purée, turning meat and spooning several times with sauce.

Position oven rack to lower third of oven.

Bake 1 hr.

Turn meat and baste. Repeat turning and basting 3 more times until meat is tender (3½ to 4 hrs).

Remove pot from oven and let stand 30 min.

Discard spice bag.

Transfer meat to bowl with cover.

Place pot over medium high heat and bring sauce to boil. Cook, uncovered, until reduced by ¼.

Let cool; then pour into another container with tight lid.

Heat until bubbling.
