Quel Bordelaise by Chantal Vechambre
13 nov 2021
Pre-order online until THU Nov 12, 10pm
Pick up on FRI Nov 13, 6-7:30pm
​
Bordelaise refers to the sauces and flavours of the Bordeaux region of France, which is justly famous for its wine. (The phrase quel bordel, which translates to, more politely, “what a mess”, is unrelated, and shares its roots with bordello.) Fricasée is a bit more uncertain: it is a French word, but the exact etymology is unknown; some people suggest it is a mash-up of frire (to fry) and casser (to break in pieces).
In any case, chicken fricassée, a rustic braise of chicken pieces in a wine-infused sauce — “halfway between a sauté and a stew” according to Julia Child — is so tasty that it has found a foothold anywhere French culture has touched down, from Louisiana to the Caribbean. Chef Chantal Vechambre brings you a little taste of France with this selection of classic French bistro fare. Bon appétit!
