  1. I saw in a report from France 24 that some chefs in France add a bit of dark chocolate (about 3 squares) to their beef bourguignon about an hour into the cooking time. You can't taste the chocolate in the final dish, but it's supposed to round the flavors out and give the sauce a darker color.
