I didn't know a single thing about Ranhoffer and Antoine Careme, nor Sauce Bigarde or why the word espangnole was used. I had a vague idea of what terrapin was but looked it up to make sure. <br /><br /> I'd also never heard about the canvasback duck eating celery before! I didn't know that Heston Blumenthal fed his Christmas goose fennel pollen, either.<br /> <br />Its nice to know that conservationism was taken seriously way back in 1890. <br /> <br />Now I must go back & follow your links & hopefully will stumble across even more amazing bits of information...thank you for sharing them & your delicious looking recipe.<br />Thank you, too, for your kind words about my scones & jam.<br /><br />RettRettabughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09974677657528087286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-33527324438732155172010-02-14T07:07:28.551-08:002010-02-14T07:07:28.551-08:00Thank you for your recipes, for your photos, for t...Thank you for your recipes, for your photos, for the atmosphere I find in your blog, I love it<br />And the sauce bigarrade is so extraordinary !!!<br />Have a good valentine's dayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15650973472672436563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-1434687621273814022010-02-14T06:45:34.847-08:002010-02-14T06:45:34.847-08:00Ju> Most kind...
