I just finished eating a juicy entrec\u00f4te<\/em> (rib steak) and am feeling thankful to the French for this delicious cut of meat…but, then again…is it really French? \u00a0And come to think of it, the French fries…I don’t think they are really very French either. \u00a0According to Wikipedia, ‘entrec\u00f4te<\/em>‘ is a piece of meat (beef) cut out between two ribs. \u00a0And now, it turns out that what the grocery store sold to me as ‘entrec\u00f4te<\/em>‘ is really a ‘contre-filet<\/em>‘ or sirloin steak which is the portion of the sirloin on the side of the bone opposite the filet. \u00a0Oh well, it was so very tasty anyway, especially since it was smothered in sauce Roquefort<\/em>! \u00a0Here’s my husband’s recipe for Roquefort sauce:<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/span>
