The Foundation of French Diet

Are you keen on French diet? Do you know that French diet is characterized by an intense diversity? French diet is regarded as one of the world's most refined and well-designed styles of cooking. This is also considered because of its typical style recognized as "haute cuisine" and provincial styles.

Even some of the world's unsurpassed chefs, from the likes of Taillevent,
La Varenne, Carême, Escoffier, or Bocuse were recognized masters of French cuisine. Moreover, French diet techniques have been a major influence on virtually all Western diets. So, almost all culinary schools employ French cuisine as the basis for all other forms of Western diet.

Unknown to many, French diet originated from Italian diet or rather the Italian City States common cooking methods. This well-designed diet was brought to the French court during the marriage of Catherine de Medici to King Henri II of France. Catherine de Medici was so repelled by the diet methods of the French during that time that's why she brought her own chefs from Italy. These chefs taught the French chefs the Italian scheme of enhancing the flavors of the ingredients rather than hiding them giving birth to the so-called French diet.
