Good morning. One of the more satisfying wintertime weekend activities is the making of stock: beef, say, or chicken or vegetable. (Lobster if you’re fancy.) These come in handy when you want to make a risotto of uncommon flavor, amp up a soup or supercharge a gravy.

I’ll make the beef version this weekend — it’s Julia Moskin’s adaptation of a bone broth that the chef Marco Canora devised for his Brodo empire — and use it as the foundational bass line for Melissa Clark’s mushroom Bourguignon (above). Of course you could use mushroom stock instead, but I’m telling you: That beef stock is sublime.

What a fantastic recipe: two pounds of mixed, meaty mushrooms seared hard in a pot to offer an incredible depth of flavor, with pearl onions, leeks and carrots in a flour-thickened gravy made with the bone broth, red wine and tomato paste. A little tamari rounds everything out and fried chanterelles go over the top at the end, with a sprinkling of smoked paprika and chopped parsley. Serve over egg noodles or with polenta.

Speaking in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, where Vice President Kamala Harris has a slight edge in recent polls, Mr. Trump bristled at the notion that his struggles with women voters could cost him the election and suggested that his tough talk about immigration and economic proposals would resonate with them.

Such a scenario would represent a notable degree of ticket-splitting, perpetuating a trend captured by surveys throughout this election cycle. Democratic Senate candidates in a number of swing states, including Arizona and Nevada, have consistently polled ahead of the top of the ticket, especially when President Biden was the party’s standard-bearer. As Ms. Harris’s nomination has made the election more competitive, the gap between her and those down-ballot Democrats has narrowed — but the trend persists in most races in swing states.
