"This is certainly one of the most delicous beef dishes concocted by man!" Today I was daring and made Boeuf Bourgiugnon from Julia Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" cookbook. It was mmmMMMmmm deeeelicious!
The prep time was so long, I ended up cooking from 9pm-2am. Yah guests...you better like this dish!! I slaved over that thing!!
One thing they ask to have you provide is a bacon rind. WHAT is a bacon rind? Help?? My mom didn't even know!! So for this dish I didn't include a bacon rind which I know would have made it more delish!
The only thing I would have changed was to cut the stew into smaller chunks. It'd be easier to chew and not as dry. The wine and beef bouillon were an aMAZing combo that just made the whole dish.
If you try to make this dish, remember, "Don't crowd the mushrooms, or they won't brown!"
My inspiration for this recipe and this blog is the movie "Julie and Julia". I'm not married nor do I have my own home yet, so my mom still cooks for our family. She's a caterer...I forgot to mention that!! So whatever man I marry one day, Lord willing, will have high expectations that I have GOT to meet! ; )
