    I've been making poulet au vinaigre for 20 years now. Learned from Marion Cunningham's "Learn to Cook" book. It's been a family favorite ever since. We serve it with buttered orzo and peas. We don't use any wine, just chicken broth and red wine vineger. You braise it covered on top of the stove too. Super easy.

    I have been watching ATK content and following recipes for years. Thank you for putting in the work. The only thing I've started to notice is the recipes are often not a complete dish. It would be great to at least suggest another recipe (a vegetable dish) that you have covered. On the other hand it's always fun thinking about what would pair with featured recipes.

    Жыл бұрын

    To add to what Jessica said, the longer a roux is cooked, the darker it gets. And how blonde or dark a roux should be will depend on the recipe. For example, if you're making a roux as the base for a cheese sauce (for homemade mac n' cheese, for example), you want very blonde, cooked just long enough to get the rawness out of the flour. If you're going for a rich gumbo, however, you typically want a dark roux. You can also use a dark roux for beef stews, gravy, etc. And if you're not comfortable going the fat and flour route, you can also make dry roux, which entails just oven baking the plain flour in a heavy skillet (iron preferable) at 425° (F) to the desired darkness. It's advisable to periodically stir and sift the flour while baking (every 10-15 minutes or so) to break up any clumps that may have formed. You want even doneness and color throughout.

    As often with their recipes, they're being a bit extra in the name of great flavour but also to ensure stable results. If you look carefully at the recipe, if you don't make the crust (depending on where you are, you should find some great options for pre-made crusts) and don't obsess over crimping, the recipe is actually pretty easy and hand-off. As to if it's worth it, I never tried their recipe but if it's anything like a good gratin dauphinois (with pie crust instead of gratin top), this is the kind of potato dish that can almost be the star of its own meal (though it goes great with many meat or veggie dishes) and you can eat over and over without tiring of it though that wouldn't be recommended given how rich it is.

    you guys know you don't have to pronounce the french dish names like a french person would pronounce them right? it's not about "it's should always be pronounced natively" because different countries and languages pronounce things differently. and you guys never said "mirepoix" or "croissant" in a french accent even though they're french words. using a french accent when it's not your native way of speaking makes you guys sound disingenuous and showy.
