I don't think the scene with the pan was intended to infer one shouldn't clean their kitchen wear. Cast iron, which I assumed that was, must be seasoned to function properly. The fat actually binds with the surface. You definitely must rinse and wipe it down after each use, I actually heat mine in the stove too, but soap does spoil the season. This isn't a French thing, it's a cast iron thing 🙂.
I agree! In Europe carbon steel pans are also more common, which also require seasoning. But IMO cast iron is very popular in the US and it was more a commentary on how Emily doesn’t know how to cook.
In my family (mexican) one should always bend down to eat instead of sitting straight and making food travel from plate to our mouths. I find people who do it the way you describe have a higher risk of spilling food on their clothes. I guess it also has to do with regional cuisine. We eat a lot with our hands (tacos, gorditas, quesadillas, etc) and not bending over is a surefire way to get salsa on your shirt lol
It's crazy to me that French people have lunch breaks lasting more than an hour. That would be so nice! My workplace gives us 10 minutes during a 7 hour shift. Lol
@@dianana7371 yeah. Technically, the law in the US is that you get a half-hour lunch break if you work eight hours. Our work place gets away with it because most of our shifts are seven hours. But there have been a few days when I've worked upwards of 12 hours (double shift) and gotten no break, just snacking every now and then when I had a minute or two. (Also, this is a minimum-wage food service type place. Most of the employees are minors...) That being said, there are definitely worse places to work. Lol. Especially in the area I live in.
@@sagepearce5447 I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully things will change for the better in the future. Employees have rights and those rights have to be respected.
I would love to see a video about a typical lunch break in Paris (on a work day). Do you go to a restaurant for two hours with friends or do you go home? Also, how long are your work days then? Does having a long lunch break mean having a longer work day too? And do you clock out for lunch? We Americans are so envious of your two hour lunch breaks! We typically work 8.5 hour shifts and only get a 30 minute (unpaid) lunch break. By the time you go to the restroom and walk to the break room you're lucky if you have 15 minutes left to eat. Thanks for all of the great videos, Lucie! ❤️
Usually, people takes one hour to eat lunch, but it really depends on the job you are doing. Types of job can be divided between can & cannot manage my timetable. For the one who can't, it is up to their manager but it is at least 30 minutes, they usually work part time or 35 hours/week (for instance cashier, shop assistant, people working in factory).The second type are people who are free to manage their timetable (mostly office jobs) so you can take as long as you need, the essential is that you get your work done and your not late for meetings. Sometimes have a lot of work so I will eat in front of my computer, sometimes I will meet a friend and I will take two hours (workload varies between 35 to 80 hours a week). Company often provides lunch benefits that is: a cafeteria or meal voucher (both heavily subsidied, companies pay 50-60% of the lunch). It is common to go eat with colleagues at the company's cafeteria for more than one hour.
It depends on the company/possibly your manager, but it's a total myth that everybody takes a 2-hour lunch break. In all my experiences it was 1 hour. I would say the great majority of people don't go home, but I'm in Paris and this may be different for someone who lives elsewhere and may drive home for lunch...
I'm enjoying your commentary about French culture! I'd love to see a video that goes into more detail about the food etiquette and rules around food and eating in France.
What I like about your videos is that you give a lot of disclaimers and are very conscious about your opinions. They are very informative. Thank you for making them.
That’s how you care for cast iron because using soap will strip it of the seasoning and could ruin the pan or even cause it to rust but I’ve never heard about this as a method of care for non-cast iron pans
Same, you rinse the pan, clean with hot water, or just scrub it but not with soap if it can be avoided & wipe it clean... just the fry pan & our copper crepe pan, basically you just wiped that, put it away or hung it back up! As for table manners... Hands are kept above the table, after a few bites you put utensils down & you push food onto the fork, if you don't want more wine you put your hand over the glass, & you always have water. You eat with both knife & folk. You don't pick things up if, like you eat around the chicken bone like! Children eat with the family, that what makes it a family meal & you learn etiquette!
I think not having time to eat at lunch really impacts the relationship we have with food. If we had time to enjoy food and be mindful maybe we in America would not have such an obesity issue. What do you think?
i have a french friend in his 60's. he's told me very firmly that he observed his father drinking wine every. single. day. but never saw him drunk. ever. he thinks german people do that, lol! i'm sure there are drunks in france, but it was interesting the intensity he placed on it. btw: this old man does triathlons in his 60's. i'm 58, and no way i could keep up with him in even ONE of the events 🤣
My father (Italian, early 80s) drinks about 2 glasses of wine every single day of his life and has never been drunk in his entire life. For him the wine is part of the meal, like the bread is. I think it's more of a generational thing, as most younger people don't drink wine with every meal.
As far as the pan is concerned, he being a chef and using a cast iron pan explained to the girl that because of it being cast iron and not just any material, it shouldn't be washed with a sponge and soap because it would rust. I would have never thought that that was creating a cliche. But I'm really enjoying your channel, it's absolutely wonderful!
It’s Funny that outsiders think “healthy food” can’t be American. Is chicken rice and vegetables unhealthy and unamerican? We eat many of the same foods other European cultures eat. Like we don’t sit at home and eat fried food and sugar for all of our meals. It’s not healthy. Many Americans realize the importance of balanced meals.
@@Edukalebylucie it’s just that American diet isn’t just fried food. So why generalize American foods? Americans eat/ have access to many, if not all, of the same ingredient meals most European countries do.
@@Edukalebylucie It’s a shame that the rest of the world thinks of American food as being all fast food. The US is made up of immigrants from all over the world who brought their cuisine with them. The cuisine in Hawaii is different than the cuisine in Louisiana, with the former being more Chinese/ Japanese inspired while Louisiana has the French immigrants to thank for their cuisine. It’s not all fast food. Not to mention Mexican, Italian, Polish, Indian, Ethiopian immigrants who also brought their cuisine with them. It’s a melting pot. It’s not all McDonalds.
@@akiram6609 agreed. My family is Finnish and Korean, but have been in the US for 60+ years now. We never ate fast food growing up and I don’t feed my kids fast food either. I cook every meal we eat and maybe we go out once a month but I don’t get all these American stereotypes at all. I don’t even know people who go out to eat fast food all the time, for most I think it’s a treat to have on occasion.
@@breel4769 I agree. Always ate home cooked food growing up and still do today. I do not go to eat at McDonalds or to any fast foods places. I try to patronize locally owned restaurants many of which are owned by recent immigrants from all over the world. I especially enjoy Middle Eastern and Indian restaurants.
Yes! And how about food preferences in general? In the US we are very tolerant. In Spain, in my experience as a university exchange student, your preferences were really only respected if they were allergies or religious restrictions. I have heard stories of students living with Spanish host families who lied that the meal didn’t include pork for instance, for a vegetarian (by personal preference, not religious reasons) student. Being a picky eater was considered rude to the person preparing your meal. This was also back in 2013 and societal opinions may have changed.
@@mariahn5764 Spaniard here, and I've worked with host families at a study abroad company, so I know what I'm saying. No, it hasn't changed ^^'. In most host families, the cook is the mother, who usually is a pretty old lady. After our civil war, people in Spain suffered hunger for some time (let's say, 40s to early 60s). We had food rations for sugar, coffee, and other produce, and meat was scarce. That's also, sadly, the reason why Spanish people can't conceive a meal without animal protein. And the expansion of American fast food chains hasn't helped either. The thing is, families take it very personally when somebody wastes food or commodities. And although I don't always agree (I can be quite picky sometimes), I understand them, too. Besides, that's what true inclusion in the family is also about! ^^' Being picky isn't allowed in the family, and while you're there, you're family. I'm curious. In what Spanish city did you live? :) I hope you enjoyed your experience abroad!
He said in the scene it's a cast iron pan and it's true you are not meant to wash this pan with dish soap because it will ruin the pan's surface. I'm Canadian and my mom and grandma have always had this type of pan in our house and we were told not to wash it with dish soap. You can use baking soda and hot water to clean it. Hopefully the viewers of the show will understand this and not believe it's ALL pans or cooking utensils that French people don't wash! Very interesting video, I enjoyed the show but it is definitely not always accurate
I don't know if you've covered this yet, but I was wondering if you could address this aspect of food obsession. What is the French mentality for approaching desserts and other fatty foods? Like when you see a piece of cake, how do you stop yourself from feeling like you need to eat it all?
The "eating rules" are the same in Croatia! My parents would always tell me to never put my elbows on the table when I was younger and to sit up straight (no bending). But we call it Bonton. You would get a book as a child were all these things were written down, but I don't think that's still the case nowadays, though. Since a lot of these "rules" are a bit old-fashioned.
My mom would cook bacon and leave the grease in the pan. And she would use it as the cooking oil for the next meal. I never had an issue with it, but didn’t know any better either.
Ohhhh I’d like a video on why so many people in North America are gluten and dairy intolerant and how to fix it! My naturopathic doctor wants me off them but I refuse to stop eating bread 🤣
At work we only get 15 minute and a 30 minute. I even worked at a warehouse where they only give two 10 min breaks and everyone had to rush to the break room and hurry up and eat with no place to sit. It was awful. Americans are also too stressed out.
In the line of etiquette, I think that a lot of us Americans were taught how to do it properly. BUT we just pick and choose when to put out napkins on our laps, and when to completely remove our arms/wrists from the table. When I first went to France, I was actually taught that putting your wrists on the table is ok. Maybe it’s our eating style with silverware that makes it improper to have your left hand near the table? Does anyone else relate?
Wow 1-2 hours for lunch, how wonderful and so much better for you health. In UK employers only legally have to give you 20mins if you work over 6 hours, but if we're really lucky we will get up to an hour.
I started watching Emily in Paris because of this video, thank you for that. I saw the pan episode and I wanted to let you know that it was a cast iron pan that she was going to wash, and washing it, ruins it. There are people who use it over and over for decades and the food that's cooked in it tastes better and better. It's a bit disturbing, I know.
6:18 That's an iron skillet and you're not supposed to clean those with soap. That's what he was talking about. He's not talking about cookware in general, just that type of cookware and he's completely correct. I'm an American and even I know that.
I’ve travelled around Europe and the Americas and I have to say French food was my least favorite along with the Nordic countries and Mexico and Italy were my favorite. I live in the US and I don’t like a lot of the traditional “American” food, I mostly cook Asian and Hispanic influenced food at home. So much more flavor.
Never seen this story but. I will say that the Woman allows the man to pour the wine to be polite. It is an opportunity fir him to serve her. Now the why depends on the code of Chivalry being followed but always respect the Divinity of the Womb.
I watched the series. Absolutely hilarious. I hope that nobody really thought these things were real, like smoking instead of lunch and wine at breakfast... 😂
I think watching Emily have Pan au Chocolate every morning was reflective of how delicious it is and Americans are Breakfast/brunch people and love pastries. And if I were to go to France I would be going to a patisserie.
Another thing, we shop at grocery stores for everything, including produce, meats, etc., because we don't have the open daily markets like you do. I assure you a lot of us would go to those markets if they were available. It's like having a regular butcher, most areas here don't have a butcher shop.
In my family (African-American), there is a saying that “the older and dirtier the pan, the better your meat comes out (when you fry/sauté) and I think it’s both gross but true, but I’m a pescatarian now so I barely eat fried pork chops and stuff like that lol
I traveled the world and the best food by far is in New Mexico...yes the combination of Mexican and Native American is the best with chilis that only grow in the soil and sun that is unique to a little town called Hatch.
As an American, I feel like even Americans have a hard time generalizing American food when you're talking about real food like home cooking and not fast food.
From what I've seen living here in the US, most white, non-immigrant families really do eat takeout/frozen food/junk all the time with very little fresh produce. I had a friend tell me she tries to eat salad once a WEEK to "try to keep healthy", and another friend thinks eating a handful of lettuce a day with sugary cereal and desserts 2x a day is healthy
I don't think the scene with the pan was intended to infer one shouldn't clean their kitchen wear. Cast iron, which I assumed that was, must be seasoned to function properly. The fat actually binds with the surface. You definitely must rinse and wipe it down after each use, I actually heat mine in the stove too, but soap does spoil the season. This isn't a French thing, it's a cast iron thing 🙂.
Thanks for the tip!
I was going to say the same thing. That pan looked like cast iron, which my dad uses a lot (USA).
Yes exactly! Cast iron pans shouldn't be cleaned with soap like that and he said that as a chef and not as a french person
I agree! In Europe carbon steel pans are also more common, which also require seasoning. But IMO cast iron is very popular in the US and it was more a commentary on how Emily doesn’t know how to cook.
I was going to say the exact same thing, lol.
Tbh I think emilys boss smoking instead of having lunch is more reflective of the fashion industry rather than French people xx
I figured it was just an excuse to get her to leave her alone. In my mind she was actually going to have lunch just not with emily lool.
Instantly fell in love with your channel
Wow, thank you!!
Yeah same i m binging her whole channel>_

Another thing, we shop at grocery stores for everything, including produce, meats, etc., because we don't have the open daily markets like you do. I assure you a lot of us would go to those markets if they were available. It's like having a regular butcher, most areas here don't have a butcher shop.
In my family (African-American), there is a saying that “the older and dirtier the pan, the better your meat comes out (when you fry/sauté) and I think it’s both gross but true, but I’m a pescatarian now so I barely eat fried pork chops and stuff like that lol
Hahaha that's interesting!
As far as I know chefs do not clean up their pans. So for Chefs this should be true regardless of being a french
I think the pan scene was abt cast iron pans. You are not supposed to wash these with soap.
School lunches here are pathetic. The line is so long, if you don’t run to the cafeteria you could end up with only 10 mins to eat.
That sounds pretty bad :(
Did I miss where that shirt is from 😍??
Make video speaking french please
I might in the future if people are interested!!
Your English is impeccable
Thank you!!!
Is it true that when you go to Paris people are mean bc you don't know french or just because you aren't French.
Some people are haha
@@Edukalebylucie maybe the majority
Speakin of school lunch breaks... mine lasted for 10 mins
Viennoiserie=“pastries” in English
me in the U.K being given 15 minutes for a lunch break at work lmao
The French lunch sounds healthy to me. I've seen the opposite in America
I traveled the world and the best food by far is in New Mexico...yes the combination of Mexican and Native American is the best with chilis that only grow in the soil and sun that is unique to a little town called Hatch.
As an American, I feel like even Americans have a hard time generalizing American food when you're talking about real food like home cooking and not fast food.
From what I've seen living here in the US, most white, non-immigrant families really do eat takeout/frozen food/junk all the time with very little fresh produce. I had a friend tell me she tries to eat salad once a WEEK to "try to keep healthy", and another friend thinks eating a handful of lettuce a day with sugary cereal and desserts 2x a day is healthy
My modest opinion here ?😇💖 these scenes tell more abt Americans than abt French …….😁😁😆🤔
2 hours for lunch ?? that's so long tho i would be bored
Sometimes it is a bit too long!
Are you French or non-French?
I’m French 😊
Do you currently live in France? :) Also your accent sounds very American
Why is the narrative always, "French womrj don't get fat?"
Why isn't it, "French women and men don't get fat?" 🤷🏽♀️

Of Course Serveres are nice to you, Lucie, you ate an attractive person and charming. What about me?🤷
Love from India 🇮🇳
You are so so so prettaaaay 😁
omg i've never watched emily in paris but just from this it looks awful and soo ignorant
It's a nice show to relax to but it sure does have a lot of clichés, like a lot of other shows though !
I thought this then absolutely loved it. It’s filmed on location too so is gorgeous and it’s actually really good.
Im glad Emily in Paris has so many stereotypes of french people. Now the french know how it feels when they stereotype Americans. 😀
