Today has not been an overly productive day, I'm at home with my little man who happens to be running a fever, so between temperature checks and pushing him to drink his fluids I have not accomplished much else; however at this very moment on my cook top sits a beautiful dutch oven pot with it's contents simmering away and wafting their delicious fragrance my way.
I have blogged before about my beef soup so I won't bore you with the details again, I will however add that my purchase of a dutch oven has brought that recipe from great to wonderfully amazing, mouth watering, to die for great!
(I swear, it's that much better!)
And I have also since found out that adding some red wine with the stock makes for a wonderful blend and deeply intensifies the taste!
In my personal opinion everyone should own a dutch oven, I purchased mine at good ol' Canadian Tire (on sale for half the price!)
It's the Kitchenaid version below which is the 3.5qt
This little pot has not only brought me added soup enjoyment but I've also made a delicious roast as well as a bacon and potato frittata.
The options are endless my friends!
So while I sit back watching my creation, content in knowing that once hubby comes home we can enjoy this savoury dish together, I feel that (aside from my child's health and wellbeing concerns of course) maybe it was a pretty productive day!
