After several days of salads, and skipping dinner altogether last Sunday night, I was glad I had a chuck roast in the fridge as the main ingredient for a delicious beef bourguignon late Monday afternoon. It was hearty, full-flavored, and exceptionally silky, with the bonus of sautéed garlic-butter-marsala mushrooms added in at the end of the cooking time. In the battle between egg noodles and mashed potatoes as the bed on which it lay, the noodles won out this time.
As long as I was splurging on a French/Julia Child-inspired dinner, I couldn't shake the feeling that it deserved homemade cheddar-and-chive buttermilk biscuits as well. That part ain't so French and fancy, but the feast was for me, not for the potential critics.
