  • Hi there, as there are some problems with the sound track volume on this video, i made a different remake you can watch here: • The Cassoulet from Cas...
    This traditional recipe is inspired by the 1929's cookbook “Le Festin occitan” written by chef Prosper Montagné. It is still made the traditional way in Castelnaudary the town of cassoulet's origin.
    There is no simple, easy or quick way to make cassoulet, This authentic dish needs labor, patience and a procedure of low and slow cooking and baking, that's what distinguishes cassoulet from any other bean stew
    You can find some more history here: www.thegourmet...
    Detailed recipe: www.thegourmet...
    The cassoulet (from Occitan “caçolet”) is a regional specialty of Languedoc, made from dried beans, generally white, and meat. Originally it was made from fèves.
    The cassoulet, still called “estouffet” in the seventeenth century, takes (in the eighteenth century) the name cassoulet, from the dish in which it cooked, the "cassole", a clay casserole used since the ancient times to cook all sorts of stews and ragouts.
    The quarrel over the region and town of origin of the cassoulet appeared at the end of the 19th century when a magazine “La Revue Méridionale” published an article in 1890 claiming that the only authentic cassoulet comes from Castelnaudary.
    You can find many variations of cassoulet recipes, the most renowned are those from Castelnaudary, Carcassonne and Toulouse.
    One of the oldest cookbooks in France, the 14th century: "le Viandier" written by Taillevant, (his real name was Guillaume Tirel, a cook for several kings for over 60 years), gives some indications to the cassoulet origins.
    Taillevant describes recipes of pies and stews, including the ragout of mutton and pork with beans.
    The historians think that Taillevant could have been inspired by an Arabic book written by Mohamed de Bagdad in 1226, which reveals an extremely refined kitchen.
    Ingredients: 5 persons
    5 duck legs
    5 sausages (Toulouse style)
    1 kg pork belly

I've always wanted to make this dish when I read about it from the postcards of the French exchange students I was looking after many years ago, they missed their Mammys' cooking....and probably thought the Irish food was terrible :P

    Gee's this is the 5 video on the subject that showed up on my youtube page. It's tough to be a duck. While it's an involved task to put it together, in its parts it's not hard from a cooking point of view just takes time a lot of time over a few days a lot of steps. As a long-time professional pilot we use checklists for everything, flying. Writing up a step by step checklist would be of good use I would think. I think you could adapt it for local ingredients a little a still produce a nice dish. The problem for me is that I am alone, and well that is a lot of food for just one. It's a challenge- but worth doing. As for costs well, the cost has very little to do with want if you want to do something. And I subscribed too.

    • @thegourmetgambit4238
      @thegourmetgambit4238  4 года назад +1

      Hi George, thanks for the great feedback! You are absolutely right about using local ingredients, even here in France you have many local adaptions of this classic. It is not very convenient for a one person meal but you may consider using jars. and sterilize them under water 180°F, for 1 hour. I kept one for more then a year and it was still a delicious dish. There are many quick recipes, but for me they are just beans and meat, Cassoulet needs labour and low and slow cooking, it also needs some specific ingredients like pork rind for the gelatine. this gives a specific texture to the cassoulet. If you ever make cassoulet, let me know how it came out. Have a great Sunday!

I thought Julia Child's crust looked amazing! I am still going with your recipe, but... can I add the crumbs?

    • @thegourmetgambit4238
      @thegourmetgambit4238  5 лет назад

      Hi Sylvia, the beans give a very nice crust in the oven, by adding breadcrumbs you won’t have this very particular crunch that is so typical to traditional cassoulet, but if you prefer breadcrumbs, add them for the last ½ hour so they won’t burn black.
      And by the way if you use canned precooked beans you better use lesser fat in the cassole

      The Gourmet Gambit ahh, I see. I usually find pork belly with rind or just the rind that’s been removed. This looks like it was trimmed from a rib section maybe, instead of lower on the pig. If I can’t find that maybe rib meat would work. It looks thinner and leaner than belly meat. What do you think?

    • @thegourmetgambit4238
      @thegourmetgambit4238  5 лет назад

      Yes you can, there are multiple choices about lean or fat parts of the pork, as a mater of facts there are many different versions of cassoulet here in France . my video is just an old classic recipe from Castelnaudary! And by the way; if you use canned precooked beans you better use lesser fat in the cassole

    I have made this before and I can tell you it is one of the richest and calorific meals you can every eat. For two days after eating it I felt like my system was overloaded with fat, and it did not make you feel good. It took a long time to prepare and was an expensive dish to make. Unless you are used to eating a lot of gratuitously fatty meat one should take care as its not by any means a healthy dish and it does not make you feel good after eating it.
