[Translator's note: the cervelas, so beloved of the Swiss, inspired the saveloy: that highly seasoned sausage, originally made with brains, now more of an overgrown frankfurter, served with chips as a staple of British takeaway fare.].

Not really a dessert, more a kind of sweet. After soakiing, strips of grapefruit skin are cooked very slowly to conservethem in sugar. It's a real treat with coffee at the end of a meal. December 20th 2018392 K 14 1 day 1 hour 25 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.
