France

Exploring French Food 

France is a country beloved for its cooking techniques, which have become standard in gourmet restaurants around the world. French food does not shy away from rich ingredients like butter, cheese, and bread, but at the same time it incorporates farm-to-table elements. Regional fresh vegetables, wine, and cheeses are used in abundance. From famed pastries like croissants and Madeleine cookies to champagne grapes and brie cheese, the food of France has become synonymous with refinement and la vie en rose.   

What French dishes can I make?

The French invented the term charcuterie, which comes from the verb meaning “to slice,” so it is only natural to start a French meal with a charcuterie board of brie cheeses, dijon mustard, and meats like pate and rillette. Grab a bottle of wine and a few sticks of butter to make some delicious French meals like coq au vin, the classic dish of chicken simmered in a red wine sauce. For a simple lunch, a croissant sandwich with ham, gruyere cheese and dijon mustard will be delicious. For dessert, try a soft and fluffy Madeline cookie dipped in coffee or tea or spread with Bonne Maman fruit jams.
