French Dishes
 
Cooking is something that i do for fun, although ive never really bought any literature on it. After becoming interested in French culture i decided to look for some recipes. Tomorrow night im making a traditional dish called Coq au Vin and gonna try to make a dessert called Clementine Clafoutis.
I was wondering if anybody else shared this interest, and would recommend some French Dishes, or anything food related.

Peace :p

Lately I've been wanting to learn to cook past throwing something into the microwave, and have looked at some French dishes. Coq au vin has been something I've wanted to try for some time, both preparing and eating.

There are some pretty good websites out there with nice detailed recipes, just takes a quick search.

Also, look up the show Good Eats. Alton Brown has done episodes on both coq au vin and crepes.

Chicken cord en bleu, is that a French dish?

Did you meant Cordon Bleu? According to Wikipedia Germany it comes from Switzerland.

Try it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_cuisine
But I think the most dishes won't smell you, too exclusive (at least that's my opinion). :D

don't limit yourself to only French food (although I highly recommend Ratatouille and salade nicoise, that i can make both myself ;))

look at other european food too, like sangria compote, tapenade, Russian blini, casseroles, etc. also i highly recommend the middle eastern shawarma, pita sandwiches, and tabbouleh.

I become paranoiac! This afternoon my sister told me that she'll make Cordon Bleu this evening. Ok, now I sit on my portion and well, it's not one of my favorite foods but I think you can eat it without dying. :) ;)
