Here it is– our final Cook the Book Fridays posting! We started cooking from Everyday Dorie back in 2018, and at that time, I thought I’d just join in occasionally rather than cook my way through the whole thing. Having such a fun and dedicated group of buddies to cook and chat with really kept me motivated to show up (almost) every other week. I admit that I skipped six recipes, but I made over a hundred, so that’s not too shabby. I’ll miss it. Big thanks to Katie for tackling the admin duties.

Rosa Jackson’s Bourride is quite an elegant recipe to see us off. Bourride is a Provençal fish stew with aioli. This one has a mix of vegetables along with a nice chunk of fish (I used a thick piece of cod loin), and it’s really easy to cook since the veggie/fish combo basically steams in its own juices. I’m not the world’s best fish chef, so I appreciate a technique like this. A homemade aioli is added at the end of cooking to make a sauce. I put a pinch of turmeric into my aioli to boost the color for the photo, but maybe that boosted it too much?? It turned kind of neon…lesson learned. This was really so good, for everyday or for a special day.

For the recipe, see Everyday Dorie by Dorie Greenspan, and head over to Cook the Book Fridays one last time to see how the group liked this one.

What a beautiful photo of this delicious recipe…I will be making this one again (and probably again and again) as it was so tasty and so easy (easy counts heavily with me these days). It has been such fun seeing your posts and learning from you…I have learned so much from you over the years, thank you. I’m so happy that I will get to continue to do so at BWD…withdrawal would just be too sad without the knowledge that BWD has some of the same participants continuing on. xo
