#11 - Fascinating history of French food

In this episode we'll be talking about a topic that's on
everyone's lips in France - great classic French food! And
especially food that has a fascinating history, cheese that has a
6000 year old past, stew that helped save a town from a siege by
their dastardly enemy hundreds of years ago, mouth-watering cakes
that were made by accident but passed into legend.


Some dishes are just a bit more special because of their
heritage, it makes them taste even more delicious. Plus we'll
share some of the places where we've eaten these dishes so that
you can enjoy them at their best too. And if you're feeling
peckish at the end of the podcast, there are hundreds of great
recipes on the website!

And in the Q&A section a listener asks "Do the French really
take a two hour lunch break?" Find out as Janine Marsh, author
and editor of The Good Life France Magazine, and Olivier Jauffrit
of radio ParisChanson.fr titillate your tastebuds with talk of
all things tasty and tempting in this flavoursome French food
episode!
