- This week, we're putting the focus on French gastronomy as we spare a thought for France's restaurant owners, staff and caterers, who are struggling through the Covid-19 crisis. We take a look back at the history of haute cuisine, from the first known recipe to the publication of the Michelin Guide. We also take you around the Château de Valençay, where fine dining was used as a political weapon in the 19th century. Finally, we check out a top culinary school in Paris, where budding chefs from around the world are absorbing the expertise of French masters.

THIS is what I want! I’m a French teacher. Back in November, I decided that after 11 years of teaching French, I want to be a French chef. I begin my journey in a French culinary institute in August 2021. 👨🏻🏫👉🏻👨🏻🍳
I have a similar dream, only I want to be a waiter!
Bonne chance
@@Karla.Martin Merci. I begin Monday. 👨🏻🍳
So how's it going so far?
@@serotoninsyndrome I'm enjoying myself. We've made, among other things, Cream of Mushroom Soup, Quiche Lorraine, and Cauliflower au Gratin. Yummy!
Wonderful to know a little about the origin of haute cuisine.
Nice background music. Anyone knows the title?
Can anyone here recommend a TV series or stand alone documentary that speaks about French haute cuisine, like the history and origins, the masters, etc? Has France24 made one?
Hello *ThisPanda,*
There are a few cooking video playlists in my YT channel, in the very last section of the homepage (at the very bottom of the page) if that helps (including one that talks about the history of cooking).
It's a series of several episodes which starts in antiquity until the French Revolution. This is the last playlist in the *"CUISINE, RECETTES."* section (you must therefore click on the small arrow on the far right to scroll through the playlists that are not directly visible).
The playlist is called: *“GASTRONOMY - L'HISTOIRE EN CUiSINE”*
But, most of the videos are in French. However, on some of them, you can select automatic translation in the settings of the video window. If you don't know how to enable automatic translation, ask, I'll explain.
Have a pleasant week.
Cheers,
Anthony Bourdain part unknown
Haaaaaa@@derekb.e1151Are you fkn kidding ?
So few as far as I can tell documentaries on the history of French cuisine ( or European for that matter) with such a rich history behind it…..
I travel through France twice a year and have never managed to find this wonderful French food, I have however been abused by a French Waiter for not speaking perfect French
In what city were u ?
@@kitty_k4to Hotel Restaurant Donibane Saint-Jean-de-Luz we Arrived in the afternoon ordered drinks, then got changed and went down for dinner, at this point we hadn't spoken a word of English but got a bit stuck with the menu so we asked for help, the waiter went berserk screaming in France you speak French, France is the greatest country in the world. I'm very glad we chose to live in Spain. France is just a place you have to travel through to get somewhere else !!!
@@fincaman2 I was asking the city- 😭
@@kitty_k4to Saint-Jean-de-Luz
@@fincaman2 A lot of french can get like that, they want to have an immense pride in France and through the language, it's getting quite old in a modern Europe, mind you I'm speaking from a Nordic perspective where English is embraced to a very high degree.
Fifteen firty free? Cafrin?
French food honestly feels a bit overrated. So little flavours and herbs and the flavours are always so muted. For a European cuisine, I'd definitely go Italian or Greek. french food is kinda like the Japanese food of East Asian cuisines. Pleasant, enjoyable but unsurprising. Maybe it's cos french techniques have so permeated all western foods that now it's become very common fare.
do you even Petit Salé bro ?
Italian cuisine is probably the most blend in the world, WTF are you talking about?! Take your French-bashing elsewhere.
Jealousy, ignorant and stupidity😂😂
Maybe you had bad cooking. You wouldn't judge all Italian food by Olive Garden.

During the 15th and 16th centuries the French were influenced by the progressing culinary arts in Italy. Much of this happened because of Catherine de' Medici (a Florentine princess) who married Henry duc d'Orleans (who later became King Henry II). Italian cooks were light years ahead of French culinary specialists. These chefs had started making a variety of dishes including manicotti and lasagna. In addition, they had tested the use of divine ingredients like garlic, truffles, and mushrooms.
When Catherine wedded King Henry II, she brought her Italian cooks to France, introducing Italian culinary practices to the French court. Despite the fact that the culinary cultures of these two nations are vastly different, the French owe a lot of their culinary advancement to the Italians and their innovations in the 1500s.
they were still eating with their hands ! she introduced.... the fork !
Lol you went to every video about French cuisine to make this comment didnt you
and now you make pizza and pasta while in france we cook.
T@@giovannidifabrizio4360 This is not True.... one of the Italian spread myths around Catherine de Medicis : it was Catherine of Hungary who did in the 12th century.... at a time where florentines where still eating with their hands. and its backed by historical studies... not RUclips university...
Everey princess in Europe who married abroad went with her court and chefs...Garlic truffle and mushrooms can be find in recipes as early as the 5th century in Franc. and the French cuisine was created under the merovingian dynasty... and perfectionnée by Alienor of Aquitaine in the 12 th century.... Catherine of Medicis has a first meal at the Tour d'Argent restaurant in Paris... a fine dining restaurant that still exist to this day.
Fun Fact: Lasagna is an ancestral greek dish.... Oh and while France existed as kingdom at the time Italy didn't... so the odds that aFlorentine lady raised in Rome bought a Bolognese (enemy city of Firenze) dish with her at the time... is as realistic as the sun rising at noon.
PS: you should study French cuisine History... it exists since antiquity and has a wide range of variety than what you imagine
lol not him killing himself bc the fish was late 😢
Food is first and foremost nourishment and Joy! when Foods are labeled Fine or Fancy, an unjustified claim, it's no longer Food.. it's an over-exaggerated belief reflecting a serious "superiority" complex
Tellement fière la cuisine française est très bonne :) 🇨🇵
La grecque et la japonaise également évidemment
La française est evidenment pire que l’Espagnole, on doit l’admitter
@@lucacardoza2533 l'admettre * ;)
Pour toi mon coco mais clairement pas pour tout le monde ;)
@@ChachouLP c’est evident que c’est mon opinion et pas l’opinion de la population mondiale 🥸
@@lucacardoza2533 effectivement. Pas besoin d'avoir la rage contre une cuisine que tu n'aimes pas.
Passes ton chemin et fais ta vie ;)
Japonaise oui grecque j’en doute ... et la personne qui parle de l’Espagne a peut être confondu avec l’Italie......😂

Iam chef ruthresh
Without prioritizing the french culture ,France wouldn't be France.
must reek of garlic
French people are great in selling cheap products at high prices.
Hats off this special talent
Cheap products ? 😂
Best joke ever
Cheap products???? Mind of a moron
It’d be nice, but i hate having my food fingered.
Why has this come up in my feed anyway?
French cuisine is bland and horrible compared to others, good techniques, but all appearance and superficiality and no taste
@D Anemon you can't even imagine how much. I lived there for 10 years. It was revolting 😂🤢
@D Anemon first of all, you didn’t say where. Second of all, I SAID it doesn’t matter, it’s all atrocious. I’ve had everything from cassoulet in languedoc to boeuf bourgignon in burgundy, and it’s all ABSOLUTE CRAP couldn’t be any worse
🤣🤣🤣 so fake
@@Karla.Martin why? Ok then, ur fake
Don’t bother! Then Frenchies hate criticizing ! They think their s*** doesn’t smell lol
The origin of haute arnaque french cuisine is just a scamm and overrated , a lot of decoration for nothing …
ouii bcp de deco de presentation et un gout tres moyen c ca la cuisine francaise.
Food and Drink as ancient Symbols, Not modern! Mealtimes are events when the whole Family or community comes together. Eating food can also be an occasion for sharing, for giving to others, like Parents give food to their children, a mother gives her milk to her infant, making food a Symbol of Love and Security! Two thousand years ago Jesus taught us to share food with others. He used food for both instruction and revelation, and food items bear a religious symbolism in the way they are made or the way they are eaten. In Christianity bread and wine have a symbolic meaning. Indeed, many dietary habits are derived from religious laws with certain foods chosen or avoided according to religious beliefs.. In modern destructive societies Food indicates the "status", "power" & "wealth" of Individuals, violating Human development and changing human nature!!!!
it's not so much "french" as it is marketing, much of which is done by anglophones
French food is too goddamn overrated!
I travel through France twice a year and have never managed to find this wonderful French food
Let people enjoy the french culinar culture lmfao like, 💀 stop being jealous
@@kitty_k4to no ! Nobody is jealous. Only the French think the world is jealous of them because They are a bunch of arrogant snobs
imagine MICHELIN a TYRE Company that has the right to award Stars to Restaurants around the world and make or break culinary careers!??
@@viktorcederberg129 lol hahaha
Exactly 😆
Superficial, noisy feature, unworthy of French cuisine.
Superficial ? Can you explain in what French food is superficial ? 😂
Where do you come from ?
@@ChachouLP sorry, you read my comment but superficially. I love French cuisine and grew up with it. I would die without it. It is sublime and profound and one of the greatest cultural achievements of mankind. I shall defend it where I can and fight on barricades for it. Against you maybe. Because I resent the way it was presented in this feature.
@@danyelnicholas French food is crap
@@ChachouLP everything the French do is superficial
@@lucacardoza2533 You're Italian , aren't you ? 😂
You don't like French food okay I'll sleep well tonight don't worry for that :)
I'm proud of French gastronomy/ cuisine 🇨🇵
Any food is better eg Mexican juisine, Hungarian.
