Bœuf de Mironton based on Reboul's recipe

Bœuf mironton , Bœuf de Mironton or Miroton de Bœuf , in Provençal Biou i cebo , is a traditional French beef dish with onions, bacon and vinegar and / or white wine, which can be prepared in different variations.

Mostly it is a leftover from cooked beef , which is gratinated or warmed up in a sauce with onions . Thin, slightly overlapping slices of beef are served in an ovenproof bowl with onions, Lyonnaise sauce and z. B. arranged tomatoes. The dish is also baked in the oven with butter, sautéed onions and breadcrumbs. It is also often called Bœuf en miroton (German: beef in a miroton).

History and origin of the word

Unchanged and slightly supplemented 28th edition of La Cuisinière provençale from 2007

France

The origin of the word has not been clarified with certainty. The name Mironton (later falsified in Miroton ) appears at the same time in old French cookbooks as well as in the French nursery rhyme Malbrough s'en va-t-en guerre , but must have existed in the vernacular before that . In the past, the word miroton or mironton was used not only for meat and fish dishes, but also for other layered dishes with vegetables, apples or mushrooms. Jean-Paul Aron wrote that 19th century French cuisine valued the finesse of preparation far more than the ingredients themselves, with the result that the snobbery about serving modest dishes was lifted. Various Parisian dishes such as the Boeuf Miroton, which is described in the cookbook "La cuisiniere bourgeoise", were made from leftovers. "The real recipe for Miroton," wrote the poet Théodore de Banville , "is only known to three or four very old concierges of the Saint-Sulpice district who were once in the service of the archbishops."

Germany

In German usage, the culinary term appears from the second half of the 17th century, in 1701 as Mierottong of veal in a lexicon by Andreas Glorez . The cookbook author Sophie Wilhelmine Scheibler stated in 1859:

"Miroton; To serve in miroton-style (en miroton) means to put pieces of meat, poultry and fish, cotelettes, etc. in a circle on the bowl so that each piece half covers the other and in this way a wreath is formed with an empty center Serves sauce, a ragout, etc. "

Jean-Baptiste Reboul describes in his cookbook La Provençale Cuisinière the Bœuf de mironton with, acidified with vinegar, roux .

distribution

The dish can be found - with modifications - in all national kitchens in which beef is used and cooked according to the cuisine française . In Russia the dish is known as Беф миротон .

As a variation, it is suggested to bake the meat with breadcrumbs and serve with an Espagnole sauce or an Italian sauce .

Bœuf Mironton can be found in the crime novels by Georges Simenon as the favorite dish of the protagonist Maigret .
