Cinq étoiles! DH and I savoured every bite of this rich stew. It worked well to lay the table, and prepare the bread and salad while the stew siimmered because the end steps, while not difficult, were the most involved - very "French" in technique. I could not find baby turnips so I purchased the smallest I could find, peeled and cubed them. They added wonderful flavor. Thanks K9 Owned for a truly lovely meal. Made for ZWT5.
