/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Hey ha/ck/ers, I'm making coq au vin as my contribution to Thanksgiving dinner. I've made it before (pictured) and it's been excellent, but I'm thinking about subbing in pearl onions for the yellow ones I was going to use. Do they cook approximately the same way (e. G. Giving the aromatics of mirepoix), or would it be a trap to sub em in?

I was thinking of doing the pearl onions and then small red potatoes of approximately the same size, so I can have consistently sized chunks of vegetables, as I cut my carrots pretty chunky as well. Would it throw off the balance of the dish? Does anyone have any experience with mixing them, like some pearls with a regular onion?

I've just never used them before in anything, sorry if it's a stupid question.

Coq au vin I made last night.
