Julia Child's Baked Cucumbers

My short-term cooking goal of the year was to make five Julia Child recipes in a year. My long-term goal (which is the goal I'm really shooting for) is to make one Julia Child recipe a month and featuring it here on Catz for you.

Josh and I recently watched Julie and Julia again, which is probably one of my very favorite movies. It involves food, so what's not to love. One of the scenes in the movie is Julie's birthday party. She's talking about how good the lobster thermador is, how she is obsessed with Julia, and that "braised" cucumbers are a revelation to her. Braised??? I looked the recipe up in my very own "Mastering the Art of French Cooking cookbook and I could not find anything about a braised cucumber. I did find a baked cucumber recipe and then I went online to see if it was the same one that is referred to in the movie. It was. Why the name change in the movie? I'm not quite sure.
