Finally got a Le Creuset 5.5 qt French Oven for Christmas. What should I cook first?

Michael, lucky you! How about Boeuf Bourguignon?

Mark Bittman's No-Knead Bread

Second this suggestion.

Lamb tagine or lamb stew. Le Creuset holds the heat so well. Enjoy it Michael!

Anything braised...it will be sheer heaven!

I saw them at Marshall's yesterday. "Seconds" selling for 149.00. Ouch.

I got mine on eBay...drastically reduced...one NIB...one gently used

Third this suggestion....

... it was our meal yesterday!

Straight from Julia's Child Mastering the Art...

Superb!

(although I don't quite understand why she would add only ONE sliced carrot to the dish - I added three, and would have been even better with more)
