Spoon Mage™ Note:

This beautiful recipe was based upon a method found in Julia Child’s The Way to Cook.

Directions:

Place all the ingredients inside a medium pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.

Remove the lid and continue simmering to reduce the liquid.

Remove the bay leaf and serve piping hot.

Wonderful as a side dish, or as a seasoning element for roasted or Pan Sauteed Chicken with Shallot Wine Sauce.
