🟣 Immersion: Sound Meets Stew

As the pork simmers and prunes soften, let the track play. The mellow groove and Octave Lissner’s velvet vocals wrap around the room like steam rising from the pot. Each lyric—“It took me time to realize…”—echoes the slow revelation of flavor, the patience of braising, the quiet magic of time.

This isn’t just background music. It’s a mood. A rhythm. A heartbeat to cook by.

So light a candle, pour a glass of Côtes de Gascogne, and press play. Let All I Know be the soundtrack to your culinary reverie. Because some dishes deserve more than silence—they deserve soul.

Some dishes tell a story. This one sings a ballad straight from Gascony. South-West France meets comfort food with a gourmet twist

Created by @Whoogys in partnership with @pruneaudagenoff, this pork and Agen prune stew isn’t just a recipe—it’s a love letter to the land, a sweet-savory hug, and a celebration of slow cooking done right. And honestly? It’s irresistible.

🍖 The Magic Duo – Melt-in-the-Mouth Pork & Agen Prunes

The secret lies in balance. Tender pork shoulder and cheek soak up the rich sweetness of IGP-certified Agen prunes—those little flavor bombs that elevate the entire dish. It’s the kind of meal that makes you close your eyes on the first bite and whisper, “This is heaven.”

🧄 Aromatics, White Wine & Ardennes Ham – The Flavor Trifecta

This isn’t just cooking—it’s alchemy. Onion, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf perfume the pot like a walk through the countryside. A splash of dry white wine deglazes and deepens the flavor. And the Ardennes ham? Smoky ribbons that add depth and character. It’s flavor layering, Whoogys-style.

🍯 The Game-Changer – Honey, Cinnamon & Time

Want to make this stew unforgettable? Add a spoonful of honey or a pinch of cinnamon at the end. And most importantly—let it rest. Cook it the day before and let the flavors mingle overnight. What you’ll serve the next day isn’t just dinner—it’s a masterpiece.

🍽️ Serving It Right – Semolina, Mash or Fresh Pasta?

This stew plays well with others. Pair it with buttery mashed potatoes, fluffy semolina, or fresh pasta that soaks up every drop of sauce. Whatever you choose, the stew remains the star. And you? The culinary genius.

🌟 Outro: A Dish That Speaks of Place

This isn’t just food—it’s heritage in a pot. Woogys’ creation brings together the richness of South-West France, the elegance of slow cooking, and the joy of sharing something truly special. It’s not trying to impress—it just does. Make it, share it, savor it.

Bon appétit, food lovers. 💜
