French Food Blogs
I’ve recently found some great food blogs and although strictly speaking they’re not about ‘French’ food, they have a French flavour to them. I think these blogs are definitely worth sharing, particularly if you enjoy your food like I do and they’re a little bit quirky, giving snippets about the writers, so giving the blogs a personal touch.
French Laundry at Home is an excellent account of one lady’s efforts to reproduce the dishes made at the exclusive French Laundry Restaurant in California, which has received many food awards globally and in the top 10 best restaurants in the world. Evidence on the blog shows that she must be a great cook to be able to successfully make what look like quite complicated recipes.
Whisk: A Food Blog is a well written account of the author wishing she had followed a cookery school course, so has set up her own cookery school at home and teaching herself from a variety of sources including Le Cordon Bleu.
La Tartine Gourmande is a food blog written in French and English, so each recipe is in both languages. Some of the recipes are a little bit different, and with great photography, makes the food look very appetising!
I’m going to be looking out for French language food blogs too, so will do a food blog update in another post!
Chocolate and Zucchini as well as davidlebovitz.com are two other of my favorites with Tartine gourmande that you’ve mentioned. I’ve just seen a wonderful receipe on Clafouti there with photos to die for.
