問題詳情
Once, food was defined by a very small geographic zone, prescribed by the products and traditions in that area.Where there were wars, food was modified. Arabs conquered Europe; cane sugar went with them. The Chinese enteredJapan and the soybean entered the Japanese diet. Immigration left a mark, too. Jews fleeing Portugal brought chocolate tosouthwestern France. African slaves brought frying and okra to the Caribbean and the American South. It seemed everytime a royal marriage was arranged in France, the cuisine gained a few ingredients and dishes. Modern historians questionthe influence of Catherine de’ Medici when she arrived in Paris in 1533 at the age of 14, with an extensive Italian cookingstaff. The event probably did not revolutionize French cooking as is sometimes suggested, but it did bring the artichokenorth. And when Louis XVI married Marie Antoinette from Lorraine, sauerkraut became fashionable in Paris andremained popular far longer than she did.
