I’m excited about tonight’s dinner of coq au vin, especially because I will be sharing it with a couple of girlfriends. Since I can’t find the perfect recipe, I’ve decided take the best attributes from the contenders and to create my own. Considering that I know nothing about cooking meat, this strategy seems the most (il)logical, no?! For the record, I’ve chosen James Peterson’s Glorious French Food, Cook’s Illustrated’s Best Recipe, and Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
I will provide updates and pictures, but probably not till tomorrow. Till then, enjoy the mental images evoked from the notion of a recovering vegan modifying a classic French recipe in order to improve it :-)
