Cooking the French way
"The secret of fine French food", said a famous gastronome, "is primarily the careful selection of the ingredients" and this is much in evidence when you watch a French woman shopping. She uses her eyes, nose and fingers, as well as her head, to check quality and compare values before she buys. Having obtained the best possible raw materials the art of the French cooks is then directed to bringing out their full flavour. During the meal several dishes are served one after the other as individual courses, so that you, really taste and appreciate the flavour of each dish. Green salads tossed in oil and vinegar dressing at the very last minute are served frequently, after or with the main course. A midday family meal might start with a sliced tomato salad. Good fresh salad can form the basis for a meal. Not only, is it cooling and light on a hot day, it also contains many of the ingredients important for good health and digestion. And the French are really health conscious. The French divide salads into two large categories: first, the plain salad, consisting of one or more fresh greens with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, or a single cold cooked or uncooked, vegetable, similarly dressed and second, the combination salad, a mixture of various cold cooked or uncooked ingredients, dressed more elaborately.
"French dressings" are a mixture of oil, vinegar and seasonings. These ingredients do not mix well and dressing must be shaken before use. Suitable oils are olive, peanut and corn.
