  • Summary

  • A French cold-weather staple, beef bourguignon has conquered the hearts of many from Burgundy and beyond! Christian Holthausen's recipe uses headier (and cheaper) Languedoc wine. Emily opts for two possible pairings – one from Burgundy and one from the North – while Caroline stays true to tradition.


    Recipe
    For 6 people:
    4lbs of beef shoulder. It’s cheap and fatty and needs to be cooked for several hours - and then it’s delicious.
    A few strips of bacon cut into small pieces.
    Carrots cut into small rondelles.
    Button mushrooms.
    A handful of shallots, cut into small pieces.
    A bottle of red wine from the Languedoc.
    Laurel, thyme, parsley, salt, pepper, and/or whatever you have hanging out in the pantry. 
    Brown the bacon quickly in a big pot then throw in the beef and brown it in the bacon fat. Add the wine and all of the other ingredients and bring to a boil then reduce to the lowest heat possible and let everything simmer for approximately 4 hours. Be cool. Relax. It’s a plat en sauce. 
    If you need a thicker sauce, you can add a dash of flour or cornstarch (gluten-free) in the middle of the cooking process but it’s not really necessary.
