Tournedos Explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tournedos Tournedos is a dish of sirloin steak with Madeira sauce with pate de foie gras on top. Tournedos is said to have originated when the composer Rossini ordered it in a Parisienne restaurant. The waiter was so reluctant to serve such an exquisite cut of meat in this way that he told Rossini that he couldn't bear to see meat served in that fashion, to which Rossini is reputed to have replied, "if you don't wish to see it served that way then 'tourner' (to turn) 'dos' (the back)" http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tournedos Tournedos ou tornedó[1] é um bife da parte posterior mais estreita do lombo de vaca. O nome deriva das palavras francesas tourner (virar) e dos (costas). Existem inúmeras guarnições e acompanhamentos. A mais famosa é a de Gioacchino Rossini e é composta por fígado de ganso, pasta de fígado (foie gras) de ganso e trufas. |
