Author's disclaimer
This Gastronomic Encyclopedia contains no recipe de Food, And this for two reasons
essential:
- on the one hand, it is creation and therefore matter, " the only star " according to the late and great chief Bernard Loiseau (1951 - 2003), who made the dish and whose precise knowledge seems to us more important than the indication (even very detailed) of how to prepare a dish.
- on the other hand, we find, discover (almost all) the receipts very well explained and illustrated (in photos, videos via Pinterest ou YouTube - for example - and live) on the internet and on the many gastronomic sites or via culinary blogs, constantly updated (by subscription to newsletter or flows rss in particular), but which do not necessarily provide relevant information on the origins, nature, definition and illustration of products et food, ingredients and materials mentioned and used in recipes.
For the constitution of this gastronomic work, we focused our research on the plurality of dishes and especially on the diversity of materials, ingredients and foodstuffs used and employed by chefs and their chefs de partie, to make them with their own. skillful and inexhaustible ingenuity, but also, and above all, those used by the peoples and communities of our planet with regard to the creations and preparations local culinary, traditional or artisanal, with a maximum of explanations and illustrations.
See Chefs and catering trades.
We have also dug, sought, investigated, investigated in fields as strange as foreign, on known things (the lollipops et cones, waters, tunes), or unrecognized as the cephalopods (cepion), your shape of urethane and mastic, whiffs, the oil of Sacha Inchi, the seaweeds (Cloud , wakame), the fruits (cocona, combawa, nashi, yuzu.) and exotic nuts (babassa).
Only two recipes " wink »Make the exceptions that confirm the rule; it is :
- the recipe for gloubi-boulga by Casimir, the imaginary character created for children by Yves Brunier and Christophe Izard.
- the recipe for caper sauce without capers created in 1938 by the French comedian and comedian Pierre Dac (1893-1975).
Without being a recipe, we must also take a look at the definition of papadom (cake Indian).
