French cuisine? With snails? Brrrr.... Italy and pizza won.

What is good in snails is the butter with herbs that is with it. Snails themselves are tasteless.
Same thing for frog legs. Their taste is like rabbit a few, but their main interest is the butter with herbs.

Pizza and spaghetti and lasagne and the works completely rule over foie gras. French food is more varied and creative than italian food, but the basic italian brilliancies are just better on the whole.

More varied and creative. That's the point. Eating tomatoes on all recipes (pizza main ingredient, pastes or lasagne sauces) is not my way of life.
I like Italian food, don't misunderstand me, but I won't eat it every day.

Rilke isn't German!

Really ? Damn !

[quote author =Jacky]German litterature: Baudelaire and Rimbaud are nice poets, but their works are of little importance compared to those of Hesse, Novalis, Nietzsche, G?ethe, Hoffmann[/quote]
Or Marx & Engels... Ok, they were not poets.

But could you eat french food every day?

Sure. Except pastes once (or twice) a week if you consider them all Italian, even without tomato sauce.
My last menus these days as far as I remember them :
yesterday evening : baked beans with tomato sauce (ok, not French food, it's UK recipe)
yesterday noon : the remaining part of the roasted chicken, with french beans (green long beans) cooked with garlic and parsley
monday evening : pastes with gruyere cheese roasted on the top (we call it "gratin" in French, I don't know if there's an English word for this)
monday noon : ham sandwich with butter and gherkins (French spirit of "fast food")
sunday evening : pancakes party, with Nutella and Chantilly cream. Children love this.
sunday noon : roasted chicken cooked in the oven with salsify cooked with liquid fresh cream (cr?me fraiche in French)
saturday evening : pizzas (Oh, damn, some Italian food )
saturday noon : beef steaks with french fries
before that : I don't remember

For today noon, I have roasted potatoes cooked with onions previously fried, with Strasbourg sausages cooked with them.

Well it sounds good all of it. I haven't really tasted french food actually, but since I'm crazy about their cheese and redwine I think I will like it. I'll find something french to eat today

I tried to do chilli beans yesterday...Since the forum was down I had to try to remember the things I saw Zak put in...Now I see I forgot sour creme and corn 

[Akoss Poo a.k.a. Zorromeister]

Sour cream is not needed in chilli beans. There are some ppl who use some sour cream to prepare chilli beans, but it's not needed. Moreover, in my opinion it's a sin to put sour cream in it. Totally kills the taste of the spices in it.
