Download or read book French Menu Companion written by T. William Walker and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-04-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never again fear a French menu. This French-to-English food dictionary makes menu translation easy. It contains over 7000 entries, including over 650 cheeses, 350 wines and more than 200 sauces. In addition, this dictionary makes it easy for you to look up menu items that consist of multiple-word phrases. Just look up one of the words and you will see all of the words that are normally associated with it. For example, "abatis aux navets" is listed twice: once under "abatis" and again under "navet." It could not be easier. A veritable encyclopedia, this dictionary offers in-depth information about many dishes, cheeses and wines, including typical ingredients, the region of origin of particular dishes, and other notes on French cuisine. Some examples: ballotine boned thigh meat of poultry stuffed with minced meat, and possibly truffles and/or foie gras [cooked by roasting, braising, or poaching; usually shaped like a sausage or the leg, sometimes with a cleaned piece of bone protruding; served hot or cold, sometimes with a gelatin glaze] Arbois AOC white, red, yellow and straw wines from Jura [the whites, from chardonnay, savagnin and (very rarely) pinot blanc grapes, tend to be fruity and delicate and can be kept for 3 to 5 years; the reds from trousseau grapes tend to be light while those from poulsard grapes are darker; they can and can be kept 3 to 5 years; the yellows are from savagnin grapes and can be kept for 100 years; the straw wines are made from grape clusters which have been partially dried on straw to concentrate their sugars, so they are quite sweet] Tomme au marc marc cheese [cow's milk; the curd is pressed in a container filled with grape pomace brandy which remains on the rind and permeates the cheese with the taste of alcohol; it has a subtle fruity aroma and a mild, earthy flavor] Because the regions of France are quite varied, regional dishes may have names based on the local dialect. This dictionary includes hundreds of these local dishes. Examples: txangurro typically: crab mixed and cooked with with onions, leeks, carrots or tomatoes and sometimes brandy [Pays basque, Aquitaine] kig-ha-farz porridge-dumpling [literally: meat and stuffing; a porridge of milk, egg and buckwheat flour is placed in a tied bag and simmered in a pot containing meat such as pork knuckle and beef, with vegetables such as carrot and cabbage; the porridge-dumpling is typically served with butter, bacon and shallots along side the meats and vegetables; Bretagne] beenestich bee sting cake; bee's nest cake [a small cake with a vanilla custard filling and a baked-on topping of almonds; Alsace] With this book in hand, you can go forth and discover some of the world's best, most beautiful and most interesting cuisine.

Download or read book Vintcent s French Food Dictionary written by Charles Vintcent and published by Harriman House Limited. This book was released on 2004-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dictionary of food has been written for all those English-speaking visitors to France who choose to cook for themselves. It is not a book of recipes, nor does it describe any dishes or courses that you will be offered in a restaurant or cafeacute; .Many people rent a house, villa or apartment, or stay in a mobile home, caravan or tent, when having a holiday or touring through France, and they enjoy the pleasures of self-catering in a country where so much good food is so plentiful.Most visitors will use recipes written in English, and many will be bewildered by the variety of different names of the meat, fish and vegetables in the supermarkets, shops and market stalls. French cuts of meat are often dissimilar to those we are used to buying in the UK, and very often the shop assistants or stall holders do not speak English. Anyone who makes an obvious effort to ask for their purchases in the national language will receive much more help from the local people than otherwise.In some cases, there is more than one name for the same thing, because they are called different names in different regions. For example, the fish that we call 'sea bass' in English is known as 'loup de mer' along the coast of France that borders the Mediterranean, and 'barr' along the Atlantic coast.Cheeses and wines have been kept to a minimum because there are so many of each available throughout that lovely country that this small guide would become far too big and cumbersome to carry round the shops with you, which would defeat the object of having a small, portable reference aid to food shopping.Also, there are many reference books on those two items that describe the cheeses and wines in great detail, region by region. The basic essentials needed for cooking are the only ones that have been included.At the back of the
