Croustipatates
Croustipatates are potatoes that are melt-in-the-mouth on the inside and very crispy on the outside, thanks to a double cooking process, first in water, then in the oven.
They're a perfect accompaniment to a variety of meat and fish dishes, but also a dish in themselves, with a little hot cancoillotte poured over them just before serving, for example.

As you can see, there's very little added sugar in this recipe, so it's a very chocolatey and bitter-sweet tart. November 16th 2013309 K 15 2 hours 30 min.

Bouquet garni
Used very frequently in French cuisine, a secret of French chefs, it adds flavour to a lot of recipes, and it's easy to prepare. The basic principle is to make a small bundle of herbs, bind them in green leek leaves and to tie it up, so that the whole thing can be removed and discarded easily after cooking.

Herb salad
Herb salad is a small salad made with leaves of all kinds of aromatic herbs, it's highly flavoured, and should be considered almost as a condiment. It really is a salad, the leaves are not chopped. October 13th 2010243 K4.6 25 min.
Vanilla sugar
Almost essential in patisserie, you can find it in expensive little sachets of about 10g. It's necessary to distinguish between the vanilla sugar which really contains vanilla, and vanillin sugar, purely chemical which has never seen a vanilla pod. Here is how to quickly make a whole jar full of your own vanilla sugar. August 12th 2018445 K 15 30 min.
