I'm often asked: "so what's your favorite French dish?". And I usually gaze in indecision, eyes wide open, as if I had just been asked what the meaning of life was. Tricky question... There's so much to choose from! After pondering and some meditation, I decided to break down my thoughts into different food categories over time. So voila, in no particular order, here's my...
Top 5 French Comfort Foods:
- Le Gratin Dauphinois: Scalloped potato dish from my region, creamy and absolutely delicious.
- La Raclette: a dish of melted cheese, potatoes served with deli meat like saucisson –a type of salami- or ham and cornichons.
- A simple salad with butter lettuce and a sharp garlicky vinaigrette served with sautéed new potatoes (the tiny ones).
- Le Boeuf aux Carottes: a beef stew with carrots.
- A bowl of café au lait, a croissant and a fresh, still warm out of the bakery, crispy tartine of butter.
