When in France...

So, let's talk about French food. French food is absolute magnefic, as the French would say! France is known for their Eiffel tower located in the heart of Paris, and they are also known for their romanticism, and fine wines. But, the only thing is missing is their mouth watering gourmet foods! One food in particular struck a chord with me, because of how popular is is in the U.S. We practically copied Frances famous french onion soup! This is my favorite dish and I did not know it originated back to France. The french onion soup is actually called "Soupe a l'oignon." This soup is made with sweet caramelized onions, some tender meat stock, and some vegetable greens. This soup is a fantastic side dish and I recommend it for any meal. The next dish I will be introducing you guys to is called "beef bourguignon." This meal is super famous and is most likely on every menu if you decide to go out to eat anywhere in the towns of France! Bourguignon is made with, of course beef, pearl onions, vegetables such as mushrooms and carrots, sprinkled with green herbs. What gives this dish an authentic France taste is the red wine the beef broth is soaked in. So, if you are 21 years old and up, I suggest you to dig in. The last dish is my favorite because I order this all the time for desert, my favorite, Flamiche. This tastey puff-pastery has a soft cream filling on the inside; almost like the inside of a Boston cream doughnut. Flamiche is internationally popular and I highly suggest everyone to try it at least once in their life. Thanks guys for reading some of Frances yummy foods and stay tuned to my next blog for some more scrumptious meals from around the world. On the Bottom of my page I have a picture of some delicious beef bourguignon.

  1. My mouth is watering. I love the descriptions, which was just the right amount to grab my interest. And since, I'm a hug food junky and love trying new foods, I'm dying to try all of these delectable goodies. The visual is great, appealing, however, wished I could see the other ones too as well as links to where I could find the directions to make the dishes. Looking forward to reading more!
