French Main Dishes

Bonjour à tous!

It's Wednesday and you know what that means! It's time to talk about some main dishes, so let's jump into it!

Coq Au Vin
This is a dish with chicken that's been braised with red wine, mushrooms, garlic, and lardon (a small strip of pork fat used for flavoring). The usual seasonings for this dish consists of salt, pepper, thyme, parsley, and a bay leaf. 
Lord. Can you imagine all these wonderful flavors mingling together in such a way?
Mmmhmmm~


You can learn how to make this dish here with French Cooking Academy! What I like about this video is that he gives a bit of background information about the dish and how the original recipe calls specifically for Rooster meat. 
Oh, and this guy has a nice accent too, so that's always a plus!

Ratatouille

This name of this dish may ring a bell especially if you've seen the adorable Pixar Movie Ratatouille.
Well now your childhood dreams can come to life by watching the video below on how to make it!
Here's another fun fact, this goes well with Coq Au Vin! (๑>ᴗ<๑)

 

This video is short, sweet, and to the point as this guy teaches you how to make Pixar Style Ratatouille! 
The close up shots of the food while it's in the making is just beautiful and makes your mouth water. Check out the rest of the channel to see more recipes and cooking tips!

Boeuf Bourguignon

This is also known as Beef Burgundy and it's beef that's been braised with red wine and beef broth. It is usually flavored with garlic, onions, and mushrooms.
One more important fact: Bacon is involved. What more could you possibly ask for?

I find this video somewhat relaxing to watch, it's probably because this guy has a such a calming, deep voice. His arm tattoos are also pretty sweet. Check out the rest of his channel to find more recipes!

...And that's it for today folks! Hoped you enjoyed the French dishes we talked about today, and remember to follow us so you can keep up with our latest updates! Thanks for reading!
