What Makes This Pot Roast A Low Histamine Recipe?

This low-histamine pot roast recipe is seen as low histamine when compared to the traditional high-histamine version. For some, it may be beneficial to cook this pot roast in a pressure cooker to reduce histamine even more. When products are cooked for a longer period of time, histamine can build up.

What makes a traditional pot roast high in histamine is that it almost always contains ketchup, red wine, tomato-based broth, and occasionally malt vinegar or tomato paste. These ingredients are incredibly high in histamine and when combined, they will almost always overflow our histamine bucket. In this version, the allergen load is greatly reduced making it a low-histamine dinner recipe.

How To Make This Low Histamine Pot Roast Recipe:

Flour & brown your meat: Flouring your meat will allow for the meat to brown easier which creates more flavor and further rendering of fat. Add your oil or butter to the pan and add your meat when it is hot. To render, be sure to focus on areas with higher fat content to help break it down.

Wash & Chop: Wash your veggies and add the mirepoix (celery, onion, and carrots) to the base of your crockpot or follow the notes below for stovetop instructions.

Stew & Simmer: Let your mast cell-friendly meal stew and simmer on low until it reaches a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. The meat should pull apart easily with a fork or when picked up with a utensil.

How To Use This Recipe For Other Dishes & Sides:

• Soups: Using the base of this recipe is a fantastic stock starter for savory soups such as beef stew, extra flavorful onion soup, rich mushroom soups, and more. The oxtail addition gives the resulting broth an extra special taste.
• Gravies: Use this as a base for gravies either with fresh herbs and thickener or choose to add in an array of fresh mushrooms to build the flavor even more.
