I recently discovered a new blog by Dorie Greenspan. After several weeks of reading her entries and looking at her recipes and videos I decided to purchase her new cookbook, Around my French Table. Honestly, I was intrigued by the picture on the front of the cookbook! A large pot with chicken, vegetables and pie crust around it. Looked yummy.

This past week I have been going through the cookbook and marking pages or recipes that I want to make. Today was the first one. The roast chicken and vegetables in a large dutch oven sealed with crust. There are no pictures, yes, my husband asked if I should take some photos and I was more interested in eating than picture taking.

The vegetables and chicken were tender and flavorful. The star of the dish was the potatoes and the juice. After we ate our dinner, we each had a slice of bread on the plate soaked in juice with a few veggies over the top. To die for! Next time I will take pictures.
