Описание

Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

This classic peasant stew hails from the French region of Burgundy. This dish is the perfect showcase for the harmonious coexistence of its two main ingredients – coq , or rooster, and vin , or wine, in this case a bold, rustic red wine. The rooster is cut into sections and combined with rooster's blood, onions, carrots, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, parsley, mushrooms, salt, pepper, and a hefty dose of red wine. The ingredients are then slowly cooked over low heat until the meat becomes tender. One of the first documented recipes for coq au vin dates back to 1913, when the French natural philosopher and zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson stumbled upon the dish in the Chaîne des Puys region. Julia Child later popularized the recipe among English-speaking audiences on her TV program The French Chef . This simple "drunk chicken" dish is often accompanied by steamed or boiled parsley potatoes or buttered noodles.
