Julie & Julia

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Julie and Julia is released on Blu-ray and DVD today and as MyDish is running a competition to win a copy I thought I better take a look.  Julie & Julia is an unmissable treat for food lovers - just make sure you eat beforehand.

I thought it was among the most heart-warming, feelgood films of the year, and so joyously obsessed with food that it might be described as a feed-good movie!

She may not have got the Oscar but Meryl Streep is fantastic.  The film is fun, witty and makes you want to get in the kitchen and cook - and here at MyDish we have plently of recipes for you to get inspired…

You feel hunger pangs all the way through the film.  Platters of Boeuf Bourguignon, sole meuniere, fresh oysters, Coq au Vin and Champignons Farcis served with crusty baguettes and desserts of fromage blanc move tantalizingly before your eyes.

The DVD  includes a free cut-down version of the original cookbook ‘Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Childs’, with all the recipes featured in the film and more.

For your chance to try one of Julia Childs famous recipes, win prizes and discuss click here for more.  It’s definitely worth a watch, bon appetit!
