I know I’m hungry! aligot "aligot" Aligot is the French dish made of potatoes mix with melted cheese and French cream and butter, and a lot of yummy with salt and pepper! On mange de l'aligot à Noël. "We eat aligot for Christmas." bouillabaisse "bouillabaisse" So bouillabaisse is a French dish from South of France, from the city of Marseille, it's a fish stew and it’s tasty. camembert "camembert" A cheese, and depending on the quality already can get really smelly, so if it’s old and good it would be really smelly and gooey and when you slice it when it will go a little… clafoutis "clafoutis" Clafoutis is a kind of tart or pie, and usually we put berries inside, like cherries, or raspberries, or any berries, and mix of berries, you can also have some with apricot. Je mange des clafoutis en été. "I eat clafoutis in summer." crème de marrons "chestnut puree" So it's really just chestnut and sugar. I’m not really a fan of it, and some people just eat it like that out of the pot. La crème de marrons est très sucrée. "Chestnut puree is really sweet." fougasse "fougasse" You can put stuff in, like olives and dried duck meat. This one is really good, sweet one can be filled with raisins or some fruits maybe, or just the crispy kind of bread. ratatouille "ratatouille" Do you know the movie Ratatouille, with the tiny rat from Disney? So it's just a stew made with lots and lots of veggies. And you can also have it cold, like you make it, you make a big pot of it, then the day after you can eat it cold, and it’s really good, too. La ratatouille peut se manger chaude ou froide. "You can eat ratatouille either hot or cold." salade niçoise "salade niçoise" Niçoise means it’s from the city of Nice, which is in the South again. You can have olives, anchovies inside, cold potatoes. It’s called salad but there is no actual salad in there, you can have long green beans and it's really fresh and really healthy too. La salade niçoise vient de Nice. "Salade niçoise comes from Nice." soupe au pistou "basil soup" So it's a basil soup with olive oil, garlic. La soupe de pistou est faite avec du basilic.
