Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - cjs - 10-25-2015 Here we go and I'm sure Blane is going to have us all looking like slackers.............. Let's start the reviews. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - losblanos1 - 10-25-2015 Thanks Jean. This is the Filet Mignon with Marchand de vin sauce. I made this recipe exactly as written and it is a winner. After trying four different grocery stores to try and find demi-glace, I gave up and ordered it through Amazon. The sauce is the star in this recipe and I'm thinking that 'Better than Bouillon' would work in lieu of demi-glace for this recipe, in a pinch. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - Mare749 - 10-26-2015 That really does look amazing, Blane! Even if the rest of us do look like slackers, I will appreciate having a recipe review thread for each issue. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - Gourmet_Mom - 10-26-2015 That looks AMAZING! And we will likely be doing this for Christmas dinner, if not before. And I like the idea of the magazine review thread. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - Roxanne 21 - 10-26-2015 The review thread is AWESOME!!!!! Blane---you are OUTSTANDING!!!!! Now, I did not renew my sub ---???? Is there any way that the review dinners can have the recipes posted? Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - cjs - 10-26-2015 I'd be glad to post my recipes when I make them, Roxanne. I was looking at this issue for something to do with my pork chops (that I have everything for), but no luck. So will have to go to Issue # 108 for Pork au Poivre. But, I'll ge to this issue quickly, I hope. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - losblanos1 - 10-26-2015 Thanks everyone. Here's the recipe. Filet Mignon with marchand de vin sauce For the best sear, get the pan really hot before adding the oil and filets. They’ll stick initially, but don’t move them until they naturally release from the pan. Makes 2 servings (1/3 cup sauce) Total time: 30 minutes FOR THE SAUCE, ADD: 11/2 cups dry red wine 1/4 cup chopped shallots 1 large sprig fresh thyme 1 sprig fresh rosemary 1 dried bay leaf WHISK IN: 1/2 cup reconstituted purchased demi-glace OFF HEAT, WHISK IN: 2 Tbsp. salted butter, diced Salt to taste FOR THE FILETS, HEAT: 2 Tbsp. olive oil 2 beef tenderloin filets (8 oz. each and 2-inches thick), seasoned with salt and black pepper Preheat oven to 400°. For the sauce, add wine, shallots, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf to a medium saucepan. Bring wine mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium; simmer until wine is reduced to 2 Tbsp., about 35 minutes. Whisk in demi-glace and reduce to 1/3 cup strained sauce. Off heat, whisk in butter, piece by piece, until completely emulsified, then season sauce with salt. For the filets, heat oil in a sauté pan over high until shimmering. Add filets and sear until brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip filets, then transfer pan to oven. Roast filets to desired doneness, 15–16 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer filets to a plate, tent with foil, and let rest 10 minutes.

I think that Williams-Sonoma carries it also. http://www.surlatable.com/product/PRO-86165/Classic+French+Demi-Glace Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - Trixxee - 10-26-2015 Looks so great. I did just order some demi glace from Amazon too. Re: Recipe Reviews - Issue #114-Dec. 2015 - cjs - 10-26-2015 Most restaurant supply's carry it. |
