Fricassee De poulet A L'Ancienne (Chicken Fricassee)


I have come to realize two things about French cooking thus far. There will be a lot of butter and wine is the first. The other is that no French woman could possibly hold down a full time job and cook like this (unless the job was as a chef).

That said - the wine does help the time go bye as this dish did take me much of the afternoon to prepare.

From peeling the pearl onions to taking a hatchet to the bird - was worth it. Very very yummy.

  2. That looks so good!!! How do the french women stay thin? Are they so tired (and perhaps tipsy..lol) after making it they don't eat it?

    Blog pictures need to be scratch and sniff :)
