[ foie gras]

French cuisine, which plays an important role in modern European cuisine, is often used as the blueprint for serving and menu combination in first-class restaurants and hotels. Among French cuisine, French fried foie gras is known as the world's three greatest cuisines.

The Romans probably knew how to cook fried foie gras more than 2, years ago. Later, in the period of Louis XVI, France, foie gras was deeply loved after being paid tribute to the French court. Since then, it has become a delicacy widely used in the court. At that time, many well-known musicians, writers and celebrities competed to praise it, and since then it has established its position as a top food.

Since foie gras can be regarded as the top food in the world, the feeding process of geese has its own uniqueness. Within 14 weeks after hatching, geese will be kept outdoors to provide a natural environment, so that their immunity can be greatly enhanced. After 14 weeks, the breeders began to force feed the geese with special millet three times a day for four weeks. In order to prevent the geese from being nervous or even dying in the process of forced feeding, all geese will be fed one by one, and they will be constantly patted or listened to music to help them swallow and calm their emotions. This is why the price of foie gras is so expensive, because its labor has almost accounted for most of the cost.

Foie Gras is French for foie gras and Saute for decoction, so if you see Foie Gras Saute in appetizers in French restaurants, it is French fried foie gras. When you taste the fried foie gras, it is most suitable to match the sauce cooked with sweet wine, or add dried figs to fry it together, so that the aroma of foie gras can match the flavor of figs, and it has a unique taste.

[Caviar]

Caviar, the most widely known of the three major foods in the world, is actually salted finfish roe, which is a famous delicious food, earlier than the 13th century. It was rumored in a Danish newspaper that a local factory received an order to make fin fish caviar, which should be the earliest record of caviar.

besides finfish, caviar also uses materials such as trout, sturgeon, cod and herring. Among them, the snakehead is the most special, because its growth place is limited to the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea. Caviar can be matched with any material without losing its delicious flavor, whether it is cold dishes, wine, cakes, etc., and caviar can be combined into a wonderful dish. If caviar is really the most commonly used place, it is probably an appetizer with champagne!

As for the eating method of caviar, first spread it gently on the tongue, and slowly crush the caviar grain by grain with the tip of the tongue, and you will feel the rich, sweet and cool sauce. The higher the grade, the higher the fish fat content in caviar will be, and the salt content will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, caviar with high quality and trade will generally have a sticky taste and a more delicate flavor.

Besides eating method, In order not to let utensils overwhelm its elegance, and at the same time to prevent the quality of caviar from being affected by high temperature, shell spoons are generally used to eat. As for the metal spoons used in general dining, they are definitely prohibited because they will seriously damage the aroma of caviar.

[ truffle]

Truffe, also known as "black fungus" and "foie gras" and "caviar", is an underground mushroom. Truffles, which have the reputation of "black diamonds" in France, are not strictly mushrooms, because they are parasitic on the roots of trees and buried deep in the earth, so they must be found by well-trained dogs with a keen sense of smell.

Truffles are very sensitive to temperature and humidity. If they are not handled properly, they can be "thin" by one tenth in just three days. Losing weight means that the banknotes are gone, which often makes bosses feel distressed. Therefore, in order to preserve truffles, they are opened, for example, if someone puts truffles in a sealed rice barrel or in a room with eggs. The result was an unexpected surprise. Rice and eggs fully absorbed the smell of truffles, and at the same time kept the moisture of truffles from evaporating quickly, creating another flavor of truffles. The best taste season of truffles is from December to March, and Bordeaux wine can be drunk with ordinary red wine.

French cheese is famous all over the world, and cheese is absolutely indispensable on the French table. In France, there are 345 kinds of cheese only through official regulations, and each cheese has a unique personality. No wonder someone once said that in France, you can eat different cheeses every day from January 1 to December 31. In addition, some French people say, "Just one good farm cheese, a glass of grape wine and a piece of bread just out of the oven is the supreme enjoyment on earth." This shows that French people like cheese.

The essence of cheese is determined by the differences of climate, geographical environment, pasture and cattle and sheep. The texture and flavor of cheese are subtly influenced by yeast, container, making method and ripening time. In Normandy, near the sea, cattle and sheep ate grass with a slight salty taste, which gave birth to distinctive dairy products. The inland land with scarce grass is famous for goat cheese. Cattle and sheep eat fertile pasture in spring and summer, and the milk yield is abundant. In addition to processing and drinking, farmers also make all kinds of cheese for storage in winter. Every autumn, it is the time for cheese to turn yellow slowly. It is recognized by gourmet that cheese at this time has the best texture, the most charming taste, and it is sweet and delicious.
