Watching "Julie and Julia" this weekend immediately made me want to be a pro in French cooking. Not so easy!
Since the film featured the Beef Bourguignon (try pronouncing that!) I thought I would show off my super chef skills.. I found the recipe online here and begun. How hard can it be?
Oh, it can!
The instructions were very involved; it called for putting in and taking out the beef from the oven several times, at different temperatures, while cooking the vegetables. After a glass of wine I gave up, or rather made it the "Anna Way", which is putting it all in the oven and just baking it. It ended up pretty delicious, which makes me wonder; what would it be like if I only made it the correct way, hm?
