Wow, that title is disturbing. But I had to get your attention!
On Sunday night, I made Boeuf Bourguignon, one of the defining recipe’s in Julia Child’s “Mastering the Art of French Cooking“. There’s not a lot I can say about the recipe that hasn’t been said before. Except this: while it was a fantastic stew, it did let me down. Why? Because everything I’d heard about the recipe suggested it would be the greatest meal I’d ever cook. And while yes, it was money, it definitely wasn’t mind blowing. It was merely great. Kind of like watching a good movie based on a mind blowing book.
