None Finer Than Ina........Her Beef Bourguignon C'est Magnifique


I have mentioned previously that I love french cuisine, and one dish in particular..........Beef Bourguignon.  Perhaps it's because it reminds me so much of a hearty beef stew, or maybe it's just the excitement I cause when I flambe the Cognac, but either way, it's decidedly one of my favorite all time dishes.  Over the years I've sampled numerous versions of this French classic, and without a doubt, the finest rendition to date has to be this version created by Ina Garten.  This dish is so rich, satisfying and comforting, that often times I make it just for the therapeutic benefits alone.  It's perfect for company, and if there are any leftovers, it's great for lunch the next day served over noodles or mashed potatoes.
