OBS

Cuisine: French for the art of cookery.

CONT

Of all the genres of food, French cuisine is perhaps the most renowned in the world. While French cuisine can be traced to its roots, chefs today have developed a tendency to experiment with influences from around the world, ranging from Indian spices such as curry and Middle Eastern ones like cumin.

CONT

La cuisine française connaît [...] des différences régionales : les régions du Nord font plutôt de la cuisine au beurre ou à l'aide de graisses animales, tandis que celles du Sud utilisent davantage d'huile. [...] même la cuisine du Sud-Ouest, célèbre pour sa gastronomie à base de foie gras et de confits, serait bénéfique : la graisse d'oie aurait des vertus insoupçonnées, qui la rendraient aussi bonne pour la santé que l'huile d'olive.
