goose liver

foie gras

In Europe, foie gras is as famous as caviar and truffle, and is known as "the three great delicacies in the world". At the same time, foie gras is one of the traditional French dishes. According to records, it was the Romans who really found the pleasure and delicacy of eating foie gras more than 2,000 years ago, because geese ate a lot of food before migration and stored energy in their livers to meet the needs of long-distance flights, and the geese caught during this time were also the most delicious. Later, people crushed dried figs and stuffed them into the stomachs of geese to make them gain weight quickly, so as to increase the fatness of foie gras.

Foie gras or duck liver?

This food is called "foie gras" in French, directly used in English and directly translated into "foie gras" in Chinese. It is for this reason that many people think that as long as they order the "foie gras" in French cuisine, they will eat it.

However, the opposite is true: in French cuisine, the whole category of fatty liver is divided into two completely different categories: Foie Gras d'Oie and Foie Gras de Canard. Moreover, more than 90% of the' foie gras' sold in the French market is duck liver.

So if you go to a local small restaurant in France, if you don't specify it, most of it will be duck liver. Moreover, duck liver and goose liver also have obvious differences in appearance and taste. Duck liver is light in color, and it will have some fishy smell in your mouth. Goose liver is a little pink, tastes like good wine, and has a faint chestnut fragrance.

Roasted snail

Snails in French cuisine are somewhat similar in chubby appearance to those we often eat. One of the more common snails is the French giant snail (? Helix pomatia？ ) 。 If you come to France, even if you dare not eat snails, you must try them, otherwise it will be a pity.

Snail cuisine is a famous French cuisine. In French restaurants, this dish has a special baking tray. There are six small pits on the baking tray, which will be filled with green juice. Soak the snail in it before eating, so it won't roll back and forth.

When eating snails, you must use pliers in your left hand and a fork in your right hand. Pick out the snails with a fork, dip them in green juice and put them in your mouth. At this time, you will feel the fragrance of vanilla spreading in your mouth, and then take a bite. Your mouth is full of garlic and butter. Roasted snail meat is delicious and tender, similar to the conch we usually eat ~

The French people's high demand for food and meticulous and meticulous preparation make snails, a special ingredient, a famous symbol of France. While tasting the delicious dish of roasted snails, it also gives people a deeper understanding of the long-standing French food culture.

French steak

French steak

French steak is one of the representatives of western food, French cuisine. Made by frying and other processes, it is crisp outside and fragrant inside, fresh inside and red inside, fresh and tender.

In medieval Europe, pork and mutton were common people's edible meat, and beef was the high-grade meat of princes and nobles. Noble beef was cooked by them with pepper and spices that also showed their aristocratic status at that time, and was eaten on special occasions to show the aristocratic status of their owners.

So, how should I choose my steak?

How is the steak cooked? Generally divided into four stages:

■ un？ Steak? Bleu-the so-called medium-rare steak, almost medium-rare The front and back sides were heated on a high-temperature iron plate for 30~60 seconds, and the surface was slightly brown and completely bright red.

?

■ un？ Steak? Medium rare steak. This cooked steak has more juice. Most of the meat has been infiltrated by high temperature and spread to the center, but the change is not big. After cutting with a knife, it is brown from top to bottom, and the center changes from pink to fresh meat color. When you are cut by a knife, blood will ooze out.

?

■ un？ Steak? à? Medium rare steak with brown surface. This cooked steak is pink with light gray and brown cooked meat. The whole steak is balanced in temperature and taste, thick and chewy.

?

■ un？ Steak? bien？ Well-done steak This steak is brown, even brown, and has a strong taste. ? However, in French restaurants, few people choose this steak. ?

In France, there is also a kind of steak called steak tartar. That's raw steak, which is made of fine ground beef covered with a raw egg and some spices. When eating, you can add mustard, black pepper, salt and other seasonings according to your personal taste.

French people like to eat original steak. This kind of steak is delicious because of its moderate oil content and a little blood. When people reach middle age, beef retains the beauty of beef juice and tastes delicious. On the contrary, the longer the steak is roasted, the more gravy evaporates, the tougher the meat becomes, and the delicious feeling will disappear.

If you have seen Paris in the early morning, you will know that before dawn, bakeries or coffee shops all over the city have begun to haunt the baking aroma of cakes and bread, especially the freshly baked praise is always the most sought-after breakfast.

Parisians who start a day's work are usually willing to buy a cup of hot Expresso in the alley in front of their house, and then ask for a cup of freshly baked praise. Elegant people are willing to sit in cafes and eat while walking. Especially in the cold season, it seems that praise and the temperature of coffee are the most energetic in a day.

The French are most proud of their baking skills, and they are the best in making cakes and bread today. But this kind of cake is called "Vienna Yili" in French-Vienna pastry. It can be seen that the origin of cakes is not in France, and there are many stories behind this little praise!

It is said that the Turks tried to invade Austria by digging a tunnel under the wall while the Austrian was asleep, and the only person who didn't sleep that morning was the baker who prepared bread for the market that day.

One of the bakers heard the Turkish army digging a hole and sounded the alarm to stop the Turkish invasion. After that, the baker's only request was that he be allowed to bake the cake commemorating this victory alone. Therefore, the tribute is a pastry created to commemorate 1683 when the Ottoman Turks defeated Vienna.

In memory of this baker, bakers all over Vienna made bread into the crescent shape on the Turkish flag to show that they "won" Turkey. So the most traditional compliment is the crescent moon.

1839, the Austrian opened a Viennese bakery in Paris. Crescent croissants are so popular that the French call them croissants. That is, from that moment on, under the constant innovation of French bakers, Song Ke began to become the most popular, even the representative of French bread.

The French are very creative, not only making many shapes of carols, but also making different flavors. Some are wrapped in stuffing, and all of them are made into French sandwiches in half. In short, you can find all kinds of compliments on the streets of France. No wonder gourmets say "Zan is an indispensable food on the menu of tourists visiting France"!

Macaron

Macaron

Every French who yearns for romance has two Paris dreams in his heart: one is the brightly lit Champs Elysé es; The other is a dazzling array of dessert cakes. The colorful dessert world, if French art and romance are erased, may only be black and white.

In France, dessert is not only an indispensable part of people's daily diet, but also the essence of a culture and the pride of a nation. The dessert maker and the dessert itself are endowed with too much romance. People always say that dessert chefs are comparable to jewelers, and desserts are as beautiful as dreams.

Macaroon, the representative of French dessert, is colorful and lovely. Every time I see protein almond cookies, it seems to bring people into a colorful world, which is fascinating.

Macaroon translates as macaroon. It is said that when macaroon was introduced to France for the first time, it was very different from macaroon today-camaron used to have only a single piece without many sandwiches. With the change of time, it gradually developed sandwiches and added different condiments to create colorful colors. In this way, macaroon, which has been developed in France, has also been labeled with a strong French label. Therefore, almond cakes are more than just desserts and food.

The earliest Marca was only used for aristocratic banquets and was a symbol of luxury, but with the development of history, it gradually entered the homes of ordinary people.

In France, the most famous one is Pierre Hermé' macaroon, which skillfully blends ingredients such as fruit, flowers, yogurt and chocolate, making graded macaroon and macaroon with different tastes, with rich layers, delicate and sweet taste and unique flavor.

Food is an indispensable part of the charm of a city, and different taste experiences represent the character of a city. Even after several years, the scenery in the journey has gradually blurred, but for a foodie, it can still awaken the taste memory that once touched his taste buds.

French people show elegance, French culture conveys romance, and French cuisine inherits the essence of culture, including generations of French people. French cuisine is one of the three major cuisines in the world. People are not only intoxicated by the exquisite dishes of French cuisine, but also immersed in the delicious French flavor.
