I really wanted to try the oven out today, and couldn't decide what in the world to cook. Finally I thought of am old favorite from Mastering The Art of French Cook...Julia Child of course.
It is Carbonnades a la Flamande, the famous Belgian beef and onion and beer braise. If delectable smells coming from that over are any guide it will be delicious. I think I will even steam the potatoes in the microwave...why not? I feel like a novice cook again after not cooking for three months, and now with all this new stuff...but it sure feels good.
This photo also shows a bit more of the backsplash...which seems to be disappearing as the counter becomes more populated.
Still having problems photographing toward the windows, but will try as the night creeps in.
The bottom rack in the oven is fantastic...I opened it once to check on the Braise, and it just glides out holding that very heavy pot perfectly.
And now the chimes are at it, signaling that the dish is done and ready for it's vinegar.
I won't actually eat it until after the Vampire show...if I am hungry after that gory affair!
