A Few Good French Cuisine Recipes
If you love French food, then you should know that there are a few French cuisine recipes in particular that you may want to try out. These French cuisine recipes are not only beautiful and delicious, but easy to prepare as well.
Cherry Soup
This has always been one of the most popular French cuisine recipes to make at home. To prepare this dish, you simply need 1 ¾ lb black cherries, 3 tbsp. sugar, 2 tbsp. butter, 1 tbsp. cornstarch, water, 6 slices bread, and 2 tsp. kirsch.
To prepare you simply clean and drain the cherries and remove the stems. Next you want to place the cherries into a saucepan with the sugar and kirsch, and bring this mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once the mixture gets hot you want to allow it to cook for about 15 minutes, and then melt 1 ½ tbsp. of butter into a skillet. Add the bread slices and then sauté this until browned on both sides. Drain with a paper towel to remove some of the oiliness. In a bowl you want to blend 1 tbsp. of corn flour and 1 tbsp. water.
Now that you are almost finished, you want to remove the cherries and add the mixture of corn flour and water to the cherries. Return the cherries to the pan, just for a few seconds, and then put the bread slice into a bowl and pour the soup over the bed.
Frog Legs
Another of the most popular French cuisine recipes is frog legs. The ingredients are 12 frog legs, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp. lemon juice, 1 parsley sprigs, dried bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and oil. Start by preheating the oven to 375ºF, remove the skin from the frog legs and then wash them thoroughly.
Now you want to add the lemon juice, salt and pepper, then beat the eggs in a bowl and add the chopped parsley. Soak the frog legs in the eggs. Roll the frog legs into the crumbs, add oil to a pan and fry the legs here for about four or five minutes, until lightly browned.
There are many other delicious French cuisine recipes that you can prepare as well, but these two are definitely two of the most authentic and well-loved. Whichever French food you decide to prepare, the most important thing is that you use the freshest ingredients and put time and care when preparing the food.
