I'm French and raclette technically comes from Switzerland :) we do love it though ! And it's typically served with charcuterie, not that many vegetables
@Camille-2850 It's more complicated that that. Savoie (my region of France) is ethnic Italian, became French in 1860, but was previously part and unified with the compte de Genève. We are ethnic Italian, Swiss previously, French currently.
As a French viewer, i am so goddamn envious, the things you all eat are really like "Not everyday" food, like escargots and foie gras, they are tradionnals christmas/new year party food, the raclette is SOOOO good in winter, and my god the wine ! i would sale my liver to actually taste a wine like that ! Thank you for making me hungry !!! As a Recommandation : Why not expand this theme of 3000$ food with Italian, Greek, Finnish, Swedish, Norway Food, i'm pretty sure they have raw diamonds in terms of cooking we don't actually aware of.

Actually, frogs and Burgundy snails are protected in France now cause most of them are on the endangered species list in France and are not to be "harvested" except during a few month in the year and one can not sell them, only personal consumption. So the ones you'll eat in restaurants will certainly be imported from Asia or Eastern Europe and mostly frozen although there are more and more Escargot farms but they will be of Petit Gris escargots as Burgundy snails can't be farmed. So they are not that popular among French eaters as you guess most people do not go in the wild to gather snails or frogs, so most people have never tasted them. Frog legs are more often on the menu of Chinese restaurants than in the French cuisine venues (except touristy places).
@@alfabeth4236 I think I have seen something about there being farmed snails or something using some of the old caves for cheese making, so maybe a dual purpose to keep the dish alive while the population recovers??

hello everyone, I'm French and it's fun to see the American reaction to discovering French culinary culture. I admit that it's amusing to see certain reactions, unsure and then approved afterwards. Thank you for enjoying each dish of this culture
Je suis content de voir une vidéo qui montre quand même des produits d'une certaine qualité et aussi que les gens ont l'air d'être plus intéressés qu'en mode "c'est dégoûtant" comme on peut le voir sur d'autres vidéos.
Having the foodies Brian, Ashley and Jamie on was fantastic. Watching their ecstatic responses was brilliant. Pairing Ashley and Jamie was very entertaining
What a waste, opening a bottle like chateauneuf du pape of this age whitout a carafe decantation of about at least 2 hours before consumption. As a french, i am chocked.
chill, they bought it, they do what they want, at least they drink it. (i'm french btw) i really apreciate how they really look for the real stuff, and how to eat it. very respectful of our culture. that's rare
@@derbygagnant7458 Je parle de décanter le vin, pas de le carafer. Et c'est moi qui n'y connais rien... Avant de ramener sa science, il faudrait apprendre à lire correctement.
Raclette with a charcuterie platter (only cured meats) is on another level. We never eat that much cornichon or onions by the way. There are a few differences between regions and families, but we eat raclette with crème fraiche, a platter of cold cured meats, viande des grisons, jambon de parme, jambon blanc, coppa, I do like my bacon, of course potatoes which are the stars of the show... The pickles are there to clean the palate, and cut through the richness. It's my favorite winter dish. We put the machine in the middle and we all get busy cooking with our little cast iron skillets, it's super fun. It's what you want, how you it. I loved seeing my country's food being represented like this, although some of this I have never tried (frog legs is quite uncommon in my experience).
La raclette originelle, c'est juste du fromage, des pommes de terre, des oignons et des cornichons marinés (elle vient du Valais, en Suisse). On peut y ajouter ce que l'on veut, mais ensuite, cela n'a plus grand chose à voir, surtout si l'on met sur un même plateau de charcuterie des produits qui viennent de France, d'Italie, de Suisse… On ne sait plus bien où l'on est 🙂 Mais l'essentiel est que vous vous régaliez, et je ne porte aucun jugement !!! 😉
That was a good episode and I'd watch expensive stuff from other countries. I'd also like a show with Ashley and Jaime travelling the world trying different foods - starting with Canada
This is the first video about our cusine that i find very well made and with good products so well done. What were those white things in the plate during raclette ? I couldn't recognize. I'm glad that they overall appreciated our cuisine that is very underrated just because we eat non conventionnal things to other people in the world (snails, frog legs etc...)
Thank you all for this video; it was really cool to see you enjoying our food so much, even if it was not always easy to taste our improbable mixtures like snails, frog legs, fois gras…As a French woman, it is always nice to see foreigners eating our traditional dishes and enjoying them.
I love Jaime. I feel the exact same way about food. I had escargot for the first time recently. My son to me to a French cafe near where we live in North Carolina. It came out on a dish already out of the shell and had a puff pastry on top. Absolutely delicious. I, too, compared it to a sautéed mushroom. SO GOOD!
Les gars, vous êtes vraiment durs dans les commentaires. Bon ok la raclette elle n'est pas super orthodoxe, mais sinon la vidéo est sympa, les produits sont bien mis en valeur et ont l'air d'avoir été bien sélectionnés et préparés, c'est pas des ersatz achetés en supermarché. Les réactions semblent honnêtes, sans a priori, et surtout positives et bienveillantes. Vous feriez peut-être bien de vous en inspirer, sinon faut pas s'étonner que les français passent pour des connards arrogants...
@@maths8458 Effectivement, tiré de Wikipedia: "Un autre usage récent est d'accompagner la raclette de charcuterie. C'est une pratique très répandue en France notamment, où cela est devenu un essentiel de la raclette, mais les Suisses n'y adhèrent pas. " Mais du coup, vu que la vidéo est sur la cuisine française, ils auraient quand même dû leur présenter la version française, donc avec charcuterie, celle que 95% des français consomment.
Thank you for trying a proper raclette with the machine and all 😀 that's way too much pickles and oignons though, we usually eat the cheese with the potatoes and cold cuts only. The pickled ones are for cleansing the palet a bit from time to time 😅
This raclette was painful to watch. Green onions and pickles are side dishes, not to be consume with the cheese, but when you're waiting your cheese to melt. And where is the charcuterie ? Raclette without charcuterie, it's like a Texas barbecue without meat.
Traditionnellement, à l'origine, la raclette est constituée de fromage fondu raclé sur des pommes de terres, et accompagné de petits oignons et cornichons marinés. Inventée en Suisse, la raclette est passée en France, où on a ajouté de la charcuterie. Mais une "véritable" raclette, c'est juste le fromage, les patates et les légumes au vinaigre.
Problem with the cannelés pastry is that they need to be eaten the very same day because "real" ones have a slight but really enjoyable crunch to them and it's lost after a few hours. Very simple and unpretentious delicacy that is surprisingly very difficult to make and that I only eat when visiting Bordeaux because you have 2 chains of shop that focus on that and just that and get it right each time. Everywhere else it's a bit meh. Fun video :)
The name of the steak tartare comes from the Tatars, anient turkish horse riding nomad tribes who used to tenderize their meat by placing it under the saddle on the back of their horses
Jamie and Ashley was just generally enjoying the food together and rating then high as they eat happily❤️ I loved the paiting. I wanna see them do a punishment together though🤣 for sure some punishments won't even bother them hahahaha
hello , I'm French and it's fun to see the American reaction to discovering French culinary culture. i take some pleasure to see american shoked by the french culinary culture and i would a episode 2. The france got many dishes delicious and strange : the sausage from toulouse , tartiflette, kouin aman, one from the many , very many alcohol from region, the desserts "opéra"... each region in france have his culinary culture diffrerent from other , you can do a video reaction on each region from france dishes and the dishes are different at all
Btw, i'm Indonesian. I hope you make another episode for Indonesian food.. ❤ Here my suggestions : Rendang or Nasi padang with Rendang, Kangkung Terasi, Bakwan Jagung, Soto Ayam, Baso, Tongseng sapi, Avocado Juice, Kepiting saus padang, Sate Ayam or Sate Kambing, some Manado dish, Mie Ayam, Kentang Balado, Sop Buntut, Sei Sapi, Telor Balado, Nasi Tim Ayam.. Wow I'm so excited and share all of my favorite foods 😂 Or Japanese food ❤
@@cocob777 La raclette, qui est par ailleurs originaire de Suisse, est à l'origine du fromage fondu sur des pommes de terre. L'addition de charcuterie est très récente, française, et les Suisses ne suivent pas cette mode.
@@heliedecastanet1882 Je sais je suis Suisse aussi et pas de charcute avec la raclette. Je soupçonne les restos français d’avoir rajouter ça pour vendre plus. Nous la raclette c’est une truc à la maison.
@@cocob777 Excusez-moi : mon message s'adressait à l'origine à Benjamin Delpech ! Je me suis emmêlé les pinceaux ! 😉 J'avoue que je préfère aussi la raclette à la mode suisse. On apprécie d'autant plus le fromage quand il ne vient pas être percuté par toutes cette charcuterie. Et puis, reconnaissons-le, les Valaisans qui ont inventé ce plat avaient, je pense, bien compris qu'au niveau des protéines, il y avait largement assez avec le fromage. Pourquoi rajouter toute cette viande ? 😁
Raclette without charcuterie ... are you out of your mind, that is half the experience. And for you people outside France, don't expect the food there to be as good as what they had here ... they had one of the best of each (3000$ sounds a bit overpriced, but hey, not my money) Nice video though
It really depends, charcuterie is a recent addition to raclette. I'm personally not a fan associating the two . I eat it seperatly from the cheese if there's any. But it's true that my case is uncommon from my experience. They still got the essential : the cheese and the potatoes.
1:17 Tou can have good wine from even ten to twenty euros though. And really nice ones under 80€ . Most people don’t buy that expensive of a bottle unless it’s really grand occasion or if they are rich af. The best is to visit the vineyard and buy directly from them !
sur une pierrade, le jambon cru prend tout son goût et tu recouvres de fromage, coppa, pancetta, grison, miam miam leur assiette m'a fait péter un câble
What is great about the dish of snails is the garlic and butter-based sauce that comes with it, which is actually called snail butter. Just a note, you don't pick them up with your hands; there is a specialized clamp to hold them, as they come out of the oven very hot!
Je suis toujours heureux d'être fier de mon pays....mais il faut avouer qu'elle met le paquet ! On leur sert des plats sortis d'un étoilé Michelin, sans parler du vin.... j'aurai aimé être à leur place 🇨🇵🤤🇨🇵
i discover randomly this video, i'm french and it's give the need to bring this peoples in france for make them a tour of the best foods places in france.. they was so delightful, enjoying the food. that i want they discover even more of our "gastronomie" . you made me proud of our food!! Thank you edit: some mistakes was made with the raclette.. pickles and onions are not really with what we serve them ( potatoes and "charcuterie" it's the must you need )
Eat foie gras with red wine ! Sacrilège !! You need a sweet white wine like Jurançon, Sauternes, Montbazillac, Pinot gris or Gewurtzraminer (old grape harvest).
Ce sont malheureusement idées reçues.Tu n'ajoutes pas du sucre sur du sucre. Il faut un blanc sec sur du foie gras. De même qu'avec le fromage c'est du blanc dans 80% du temps. Et pas du rouge.
i'll say this. I'm in france, it makes almost 2 years, and still not tried it but I'm curious. but I'm curious as well of the escargot but for that I'm really bias because I'm portuguese and our snails are so good, and if escargot tastes as they describe I'll be a bit dissapointed, not much because I love the flavours they described it
So true... it's a "cliché" about french cuisine... but if you ask french people who eat that, it's maybe 10% of people... and probably under that. At the opposite, it's probably 70-80% for raclette, we love that in winter. or summer. ANYTIMES (the "authentic" in winter, and in a burger, a pizza... the rest of the time)
Ok so I'm gonna be mad here, practically all dish presented are things we eat in france ONLY on occasion, and those are REAAAALLY expensive (aside of the sardines and raclette), for the raclette, where's the charcuterie that goes with it? WHY do you eat it with only pickles and pickled onions along the potatoes??? if you wanted to present france with the food, you could have went with Cassoulet, boeuf Bourgignon, pot-au-feu, coq au vin, quiche, choucroute, aligot, bouillabaisse and many more dishes that ARE affordable by people, not just the fancy stuff you only see in restaurants. remember y'all, France is not all about the high class food, you mostly find the good stuff in the country side cooked by grannies and moms. Avec beaucoup d'amour d'un français qui espère une représentation moins cliché et élitiste de la France
Les légumes farcies (c'est mon plat préféré je suis Provençale), les civets, la blanquette, les poissons, les coquillages, les cailles, les bons poulets fermiers, les tourtes ... il y a beaucoup de plat unique à tomber par terre et pas forcément cher !
@@genevievetaulier2892 Oui, mais ces plats ne sont pas forcéments exclusifs à la france. Poulets, coquillages et Tourtes par exemple sont consommés dans le monde entier, et les USA les connaissent bien.
Consider that raclette was originally a poor farmers' dish. Cheese and potatoes were available nearly year round when other foods like meats or fresh vegetables simply weren't available or at least affordable for the poor. Now it has become this insanely overpriced treat and celebration.
@@VvVActiviX and so many pickles and onion!!?? my perfect plate: 1 or 2 potato, viande des grisons and some ham and Raclette Cheese... with maybe 1 cornichon...

It is a daily culinary adventure. When I gave my cat her French Pate today, I thought that smells not bad......It is a French cat, only the best.....
I love how tinned fish is a luxury dish but not in France haha
y'a conserve et conserve, et oui les conserves de poisson tu peux en trouver des très cheres en épicerie fine, y'en a même des millésimés, juste que globalement on prends celles d'auchan
@@pbz4994 ah ouais parce que les Saupiquet à 2 euros t'en trouves pas au Ritz mdr
@@pbz4994 pour avoir regardé le prix de ce qu'ils ont gouté, c'est plu cher que ce que tu trouves à carrefour mais c'set 3.80€/100g pour les piments d'espelette et 4.90€ pour 115g pour celles à la tapenade ils ont pas cherché très cher non plus mdr
as a french man thank you for the reaction.
but you forgot the meat for the raclette.
Ashley and Jaime are so pure and lovable with how grateful their reactions are. 💖
hello everyone, I'm French and it's fun to see the American reaction to discovering French culinary culture.
I admit that it's amusing to see certain reactions, unsure and then approved afterwards.
Thank you for enjoying each dish of this culture
Je suis content de voir une vidéo qui montre quand même des produits d'une certaine qualité et aussi que les gens ont l'air d'être plus intéressés qu'en mode "c'est dégoûtant" comme on peut le voir sur d'autres vidéos.
Je suis entièrement d’accord avec toi, on voit qu’ils respectent le produit et qu’ils veulent simplement le faire découvrir aux gens
Having the foodies Brian, Ashley and Jamie on was fantastic. Watching their ecstatic responses was brilliant. Pairing Ashley and Jamie was very entertaining
you clearly put effort into sourcing good product and it shows !
What a waste, opening a bottle like chateauneuf du pape of this age whitout a carafe decantation of about at least 2 hours before consumption. As a french, i am chocked.
chill, they bought it, they do what they want, at least they drink it. (i'm french btw) i really apreciate how they really look for the real stuff, and how to eat it. very respectful of our culture. that's rare
@@derbygagnant7458 Je parle de décanter le vin, pas de le carafer. Et c'est moi qui n'y connais rien... Avant de ramener sa science, il faudrait apprendre à lire correctement.
@@hasturx1 Bien préparé en amont et versé correctement ça ne pose aucun problème de le mettre dans des verres. Mais ça n'en a pas l'air...
The older the wine the less you need to carafe it !
And decantation is not necessary at all.
jamie's reaction is just GOLD! she should be in all food episodes!
“Ethically sourced” foie gras is hilarious but okayyyy 😂😂
Their is a way!! Their is a guy who does this in France! Look him up!
Raclette with a charcuterie platter (only cured meats) is on another level. We never eat that much cornichon or onions by the way.
There are a few differences between regions and families, but we eat raclette with crème fraiche, a platter of cold cured meats, viande des grisons, jambon de parme, jambon blanc, coppa, I do like my bacon, of course potatoes which are the stars of the show... The pickles are there to clean the palate, and cut through the richness. It's my favorite winter dish. We put the machine in the middle and we all get busy cooking with our little cast iron skillets, it's super fun. It's what you want, how you it.
I loved seeing my country's food being represented like this, although some of this I have never tried (frog legs is quite uncommon in my experience).
creme fraiche with raclette???? that's a crime!!!
@@eclime565 nah, you have a bit, on the side. The cold cream with the hot cheese is actually divine. Or with the potatoes, to make them creamier.
@@Kavriel j'ai jamais vue de la crème fraiche avec une raclette sacrilège a mon avis tu est ce type de personne a faire des pate au sucre
@@azuyka2875 si tu veux!
La raclette originelle, c'est juste du fromage, des pommes de terre, des oignons et des cornichons marinés (elle vient du Valais, en Suisse). On peut y ajouter ce que l'on veut, mais ensuite, cela n'a plus grand chose à voir, surtout si l'on met sur un même plateau de charcuterie des produits qui viennent de France, d'Italie, de Suisse… On ne sait plus bien où l'on est 🙂 Mais l'essentiel est que vous vous régaliez, et je ne porte aucun jugement !!! 😉
If you want to try French food you need to go to France. It's the best way.
Naw we do have the same ingredients here lol
@@KalEL224 Not realy and, by the way, you have not the skills.
@@KalEL224il a raison lol
That was a good episode and I'd watch expensive stuff from other countries. I'd also like a show with Ashley and Jaime travelling the world trying different foods - starting with Canada
Jaime and Ashley made this episode outstanding!😂
They're foodie MVP's.
Jaime and Ashley paired together People vs Food?! Yes!!!!
❤❤❤❤ them together!!!
This is the first video about our cusine that i find very well made and with good products so well done. What were those white things in the plate during raclette ? I couldn't recognize. I'm glad that they overall appreciated our cuisine that is very underrated just because we eat non conventionnal things to other people in the world (snails, frog legs etc...)
C’était des petits oignons, les boules blanches, tu en trouves parfois dans les bocaux de cornichons :)
@@Aspett0 Ah oui c'est vrai maintenant que tu le dis ahah
Thank you all for this video; it was really cool to see you enjoying our food so much, even if it was not always easy to taste our improbable mixtures like snails, frog legs, fois gras…As a French woman, it is always nice to see foreigners eating our traditional dishes and enjoying them.
I love Jaime. I feel the exact same way about food. I had escargot for the first time recently. My son to me to a French cafe near where we live in North Carolina. It came out on a dish already out of the shell and had a puff pastry on top. Absolutely delicious. I, too, compared it to a sautéed mushroom. SO GOOD!
The french translation for Joe is : « Beauf »
Un gros beauf !
Ashley, Izzy Iman and Jaime are triple knockouts
Jamie is the best reacter of all time. Her facial expression are great.
Les gars, vous êtes vraiment durs dans les commentaires.
Bon ok la raclette elle n'est pas super orthodoxe, mais sinon la vidéo est sympa, les produits sont bien mis en valeur et ont l'air d'avoir été bien sélectionnés et préparés, c'est pas des ersatz achetés en supermarché.
Les réactions semblent honnêtes, sans a priori, et surtout positives et bienveillantes. Vous feriez peut-être bien de vous en inspirer, sinon faut pas s'étonner que les français passent pour des connards arrogants...
Raclette without any charcuterie???
No cooked ham? No dried ham? No Sausisson? WTF?
yes, how to destroy a recipe? Ask Americans. There is no pickel and no onion in "raclette", and no skin on potatoes. And where is the "charcuterie".
And why so much pickles ?? Cornichons and pickled onions goes with the charcuterie And why no bread too ?
Traditionnaly there are no charcuterie in the raclette.
@@maths8458 Effectivement, tiré de Wikipedia:
"Un autre usage récent est d'accompagner la raclette de charcuterie. C'est une pratique très répandue en France notamment, où cela est devenu un essentiel de la raclette, mais les Suisses n'y adhèrent pas. "
Mais du coup, vu que la vidéo est sur la cuisine française, ils auraient quand même dû leur présenter la version française, donc avec charcuterie, celle que 95% des français consomment.
Thank you for trying a proper raclette with the machine and all 😀 that's way too much pickles and oignons though, we usually eat the cheese with the potatoes and cold cuts only. The pickled ones are for cleansing the palet a bit from time to time 😅
Also why did you cut the cheese tasting part ? 😂🥲
Jamie would be the best person to go on a food exploration tour with...her pure joy for food is awesome...and hilarious!
This raclette was painful to watch.
Green onions and pickles are side dishes, not to be consume with the cheese, but when you're waiting your cheese to melt. And where is the charcuterie ?
Raclette without charcuterie, it's like a Texas barbecue without meat.
exactement ahahah j'ai halluciné
j'approuve, les cornichons et les oignons c'est justement pour accompagner la charcuterie !
@@stein4491 Et c'est pas les trucs ultra nécessaires. J'en met jamais dans mes raclettes perso. Patates, charcuterie, fromages... ni plus ni moins
Traditionnellement, à l'origine, la raclette est constituée de fromage fondu raclé sur des pommes de terres, et accompagné de petits oignons et cornichons marinés. Inventée en Suisse, la raclette est passée en France, où on a ajouté de la charcuterie. Mais une "véritable" raclette, c'est juste le fromage, les patates et les légumes au vinaigre.
@@heliedecastanet1882 Tu vas lâcher ta petite rengaine pro-Suisse sur toute la page ? :D
Problem with the cannelés pastry is that they need to be eaten the very same day because "real" ones have a slight but really enjoyable crunch to them and it's lost after a few hours. Very simple and unpretentious delicacy that is surprisingly very difficult to make and that I only eat when visiting Bordeaux because you have 2 chains of shop that focus on that and just that and get it right each time. Everywhere else it's a bit meh.
Fun video :)
Love the format!! You should do the same with Italian cuisine😋
The name of the steak tartare comes from the Tatars, anient turkish horse riding nomad tribes who used to tenderize their meat by placing it under the saddle on the back of their horses
Jamie and Ashley!! Perfect duo for this episode
what do you mean cheese is served with pickels and veg in a raclette ? it's definitly charcuterie, not onions or pickles
True, but that's honestly not a bad idea
Not true. Charcuterie is optional but not traditional. Onions and pickles are a must with it
C'est faux. La raclette de mange avec des pommes de terre, des oignons et des cornichons et rien d'autre.
What is this amount of pickles ???!!!! In France we eat it with potatoes, all kinds of hams and one or 2 cornichons but not like that lol
SCANDALE
As a french woman, I am so happy you all tried really quality real traditional french food
De qualité ? Tu plaisante ?
I usually don't comment. But because I'm French, I'm really happy they enjoyed our cuisine
I laughed when i saw the cheese board with caprice des dieux! Hahaha, after that i was expecting (mostly afraid) kiri and babybel. 😅
Le plus dure pour eux, ça va être de retourner à leur cuisine de tout les jours xD
Not really.
Oui les pauvres avec leurs cheddars sans goût
Cela ne sera pas difficile ils n ont pas de gastronomie à part dans quelques coins spécifiques
Jamie and Ashley was just generally enjoying the food together and rating then high as they eat happily❤️ I loved the paiting. I wanna see them do a punishment together though🤣 for sure some punishments won't even bother them hahahaha
love it when reactors try foods with no punishment. You really get to see their joy
Jaime and Ashley, the best react couple
Le mec qui arrive en cours de vidéo il a vraiment un palet de doberman
C'est un zgueg il doit bouffer que des conneries sans goût ou alors il n'aime juste pas la France.
c'est un vrai connard, oui
Mon chien a plus de goût que lui !
8:36 charcuterie board ?? But the only charcuterie present are saucisson and rillettes.
hello , I'm French and it's fun to see the American reaction to discovering French culinary culture.
i take some pleasure to see american shoked by the french culinary culture and i would a episode 2. The france got many dishes delicious and strange :
the sausage from toulouse , tartiflette, kouin aman, one from the many , very many alcohol from region, the desserts "opéra"...
each region in france have his culinary culture diffrerent from other , you can do a video reaction on each region from france dishes and the dishes are different at all
It's actually spelled Kouign Amann ;)
Btw, i'm Indonesian. I hope you make another episode for Indonesian food.. ❤
Here my suggestions : Rendang or Nasi padang with Rendang, Kangkung Terasi, Bakwan Jagung, Soto Ayam, Baso, Tongseng sapi, Avocado Juice, Kepiting saus padang, Sate Ayam or Sate Kambing, some Manado dish, Mie Ayam, Kentang Balado, Sop Buntut, Sei Sapi, Telor Balado, Nasi Tim Ayam.. Wow I'm so excited and share all of my favorite foods 😂
Or Japanese food ❤
The French are frenching, they really love their food with art.
Escargot is absolutely amazing. If you don’t try it, you don’t know what you’re missing.
Une raclette sans charcuterie, c'est pas une vraie raclette.
Faux
La vraie raclette c'est celle que tu aimes ;)
@@cocob777 La raclette, qui est par ailleurs originaire de Suisse, est à l'origine du fromage fondu sur des pommes de terre. L'addition de charcuterie est très récente, française, et les Suisses ne suivent pas cette mode.
@@heliedecastanet1882 Je sais je suis Suisse aussi et pas de charcute avec la raclette. Je soupçonne les restos français d’avoir rajouter ça pour vendre plus. Nous la raclette c’est une truc à la maison.
@@cocob777 Excusez-moi : mon message s'adressait à l'origine à Benjamin Delpech ! Je me suis emmêlé les pinceaux ! 😉
J'avoue que je préfère aussi la raclette à la mode suisse. On apprécie d'autant plus le fromage quand il ne vient pas être percuté par toutes cette charcuterie. Et puis, reconnaissons-le, les Valaisans qui ont inventé ce plat avaient, je pense, bien compris qu'au niveau des protéines, il y avait largement assez avec le fromage. Pourquoi rajouter toute cette viande ? 😁
I swear the new chefs are going all out. The food episodes after revamping have all looked freakingly delicious
Raclette without charcuterie ... are you out of your mind, that is half the experience.
And for you people outside France, don't expect the food there to be as good as what they had here ... they had one of the best of each (3000$ sounds a bit overpriced, but hey, not my money)
Nice video though
It really depends, charcuterie is a recent addition to raclette. I'm personally not a fan associating the two . I eat it seperatly from the cheese if there's any. But it's true that my case is uncommon from my experience. They still got the essential : the cheese and the potatoes.
1:17 Tou can have good wine from even ten to twenty euros though. And really nice ones under 80€ .
Most people don’t buy that expensive of a bottle unless it’s really grand occasion or if they are rich af.
The best is to visit the vineyard and buy directly from them !
Raclette without some good cold cuts (ham, raw ham, sausages, salami, coppa...) is pure evil.
sur une pierrade, le jambon cru prend tout son goût et tu recouvres de fromage, coppa, pancetta, grison, miam miam
leur assiette m'a fait péter un câble
We need more of this Jaime -Ashley combo in the Food episodes.
I am literally here for it. 😋🤤 🍴 🍷
What is great about the dish of snails is the garlic and butter-based sauce that comes with it, which is actually called snail butter. Just a note, you don't pick them up with your hands; there is a specialized clamp to hold them, as they come out of the oven very hot!
Izzy is my spirit animal.
Princess Izzy is the absolute best and French Food looks so good and amazing and she's gonna enjoy all this amazing food ❤❤
Je suis toujours heureux d'être fier de mon pays....mais il faut avouer qu'elle met le paquet ! On leur sert des plats sortis d'un étoilé Michelin, sans parler du vin.... j'aurai aimé être à leur place 🇨🇵🤤🇨🇵
wtf is this raclette where is the charcuterie ????
pas de charcuterie dans la vraie raclette traditionnelle suisse. A la limite, un peu de viande séchée mais c'est tout.
@@Agatha-Raisin La raclette la plus répandue est avec de la charcuterie en tout genre désolé pour les puristes
@@Agatha-Raisin sauf que la c'est une raclette savoyarde :p déso les suisse mais la on vous a spoilé le plat
i discover randomly this video, i'm french and it's give the need to bring this peoples in france for make them a tour of the best foods places in france.. they was so delightful, enjoying the food. that i want they discover even more of our "gastronomie" . you made me proud of our food!!
Thank you
edit: some mistakes was made with the raclette.. pickles and onions are not really with what we serve them ( potatoes and "charcuterie" it's the must you need )
Eat foie gras with red wine ! Sacrilège !!
You need a sweet white wine like Jurançon, Sauternes, Montbazillac, Pinot gris or Gewurtzraminer (old grape harvest).
Tu as bon goût mais j'ai jamais vu les repas de noel où on fait super gaffe à ça, à part si t'as une cave vraimennnt
Avec un blanc vendange tardive, une tuerie.
Ce sont malheureusement idées reçues.Tu n'ajoutes pas du sucre sur du sucre. Il faut un blanc sec sur du foie gras.
De même qu'avec le fromage c'est du blanc dans 80% du temps. Et pas du rouge.
Le foie gras c’est infect avec du vin blanc surtout sucré
Most of french people haven’t tried frog legs. The one who eat that a lot are tourists trying to have an « authentic french experience »😂😂.
i'll say this. I'm in france, it makes almost 2 years, and still not tried it but I'm curious. but I'm curious as well of the escargot but for that I'm really bias because I'm portuguese and our snails are so good, and if escargot tastes as they describe I'll be a bit dissapointed, not much because I love the flavours they described it
So true... it's a "cliché" about french cuisine... but if you ask french people who eat that, it's maybe 10% of people... and probably under that.
At the opposite, it's probably 70-80% for raclette, we love that in winter. or summer. ANYTIMES (the "authentic" in winter, and in a burger, a pizza... the rest of the time)
I'm French and I used to eat this on a regular basis during my childhood. I must admit that last time was a long time ago though.
We had frog legs served at the school cafeteria a few times when I was in middle school in south western France
@@ABdesp eh ben dis donc…ca devait etre une école assez cossue alors
Never put ice with escargots: eat them warm, with the butter, on a slice of good baguette.
Je crois que c'est du sel nn? mais j'en ai vu plusieurs faire ça jsp pq. A moins que ce soit pou les refroidir du four...
Ok so I'm gonna be mad here, practically all dish presented are things we eat in france ONLY on occasion, and those are REAAAALLY expensive (aside of the sardines and raclette), for the raclette, where's the charcuterie that goes with it? WHY do you eat it with only pickles and pickled onions along the potatoes??? if you wanted to present france with the food, you could have went with Cassoulet, boeuf Bourgignon, pot-au-feu, coq au vin, quiche, choucroute, aligot, bouillabaisse and many more dishes that ARE affordable by people, not just the fancy stuff you only see in restaurants.
remember y'all, France is not all about the high class food, you mostly find the good stuff in the country side cooked by grannies and moms.
Avec beaucoup d'amour d'un français qui espère une représentation moins cliché et élitiste de la France
Well, the title of this video is about French expensive delicacies, not daily cuisine.
Les légumes farcies (c'est mon plat préféré je suis Provençale), les civets, la blanquette, les poissons, les coquillages, les cailles, les bons poulets fermiers, les tourtes ... il y a beaucoup de plat unique à tomber par terre et pas forcément cher !
@@genevievetaulier2892 Oui, mais ces plats ne sont pas forcéments exclusifs à la france. Poulets, coquillages et Tourtes par exemple sont consommés dans le monde entier, et les USA les connaissent bien.
@@loganlee2028 Non pas vraiment car nos produits sont de bonne qualité, sans hormones, sans OGM... la qualité et les sauces ça change le goût.
I love almost all of these foods!! Glad to see the joy of others especially those trying them for the first time!!
Brian is French or deserves to have the bi-nationality. As a Frenchman myself, I loved his reaction to all the meals presented to him. 😊
Joe a définitivement un palais de dobberman.
Consider that raclette was originally a poor farmers' dish. Cheese and potatoes were available nearly year round when other foods like meats or fresh vegetables simply weren't available or at least affordable for the poor.
Now it has become this insanely overpriced treat and celebration.
Euuuuuuuuh it's the worst plate for a raclette i've Seen in my life
No Meat?! wtf is that
