La Varenne followed his groundbreaking work with a second book, Le Pâtissier françois (Paris 1653), which is generally credited with being the first comprehensive French work on pastry-making. In 1662 appeared the first of the combined editions that presented all three works together. All the early editions of La Varenne's works--Le Cuisinier françois ran through thirty editions in seventy-five years--are extremely rare; like children's books, they too were worn to pieces, in the kitchen, and simply used up. Pirated editions of Le Cuisinier françois were printed in Amsterdam (1653) and The Hague (1654–56).

While working in London, La Chapelle published his text first in three English volumes in 1733 and then in four French volumes in 1735. Entitled Le Cuisinier moderne, the work was the forerunner of a lavishly illustrated series of cookbooks that might equally well be considered art books. Philip & Mary Hyman, Printing the Kitchen in Food: A Culinary History, p. 398. In 1742 he published Le cuisinier moderne, qui apprend à donner toutes sortes de repas, en gras & en maigre, d'une manière plus délicate que ce qui en a été écrit jusqu'à présent : divisé en cinq volumes, avec de nouveaux modéles de vaisselle, & des desseins de table dans le grand goût d'aujourd'hui, gravez en taille-douce ... / par le sieur Vincent La Chapelle in The Hague.

It is said that La Varenne's first training was in the kitchens of the queen Marie de Medici. At the time his books were published, La Varenne had ten years' experience as chef de cuisine to Nicolas Chalon du Blé, Marquis of Uxelles (marquis d'Uxelles in French), to whom he dedicated his publications and whom he immortalised in duxelles, finely-minced mushrooms seasoned with herbs and shallots, which is still a favourite flavouring for fish and vegetables. The Marquis of Uxelles was the royal governor of Chalon-sur-Saône, thought by some to be the birthplace of La Varenne. Le Cuisinier françois was reprinted in 1983,Three other French cookbooks are included: Le pastissier françois, Le confiturier françois and Le cuisinier friand, from a Rouen almanac of 1693.

Menon, La nouvelle cuisine (1742) The term "nouvelle cuisine" has been used several times in the history of French cuisine, to mark a clean break with the past. In the 1730s and 1740s, several French writers emphasized their break with tradition, calling their cooking "modern" or "new". Vincent La Chapelle published his Cuisinier moderne in 1733–1735. The first volumes of Menon's Nouveau traité de la cuisine came out in 1739.

The Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets notes that the "ubiquitous" crème brûlée appeared in the Dictionary, but that Elizabeth David had traced Nott's version to François Massialot's recipe in his 1691 Cuisinier royal et bourgeois, rendered as "Burnt Cream" in the English translation of his book, The Court and Country Cook of 1702. The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation comments that Nott seems to have plagiarized "heavily" from Robert May as well as Massialot, without explanation.

Soon there were imitators: Le Cuisinier françois méthodique was published anonymously in Paris, 1660. The English translation, The French Cook (London 1653) was the first French cookbook translated into English. It introduced professional terms like à la mode, au bleu (very rare), and au naturel which are now standard culinary expressions. Its success can be gauged from the fact that over 250,000 copies were printed in about 250 editions and it remained in print until 1815.

Once julienned, turning the subject 90 degrees and dicing finely will produce brunoise (3 mm × 3 mm × 3 mm). The first known use of the term in print is in François Massialot's Le Cuisinier Royal et Bourgeois (1722 edition). The origin of the term is uncertain, but may derive from the proper name Jules or Julien. A potage julienne is composed of carrots, beets, leeks, celery, lettuce, sorrel, and chervil cut in strips a half-ligne in thickness and about eight or ten lignes in length.

André Viard in Le Cuisinier Impérial, first published in 1806, gives a recipe for glace de cerises. Cherry ice cream has been produced in the United States since at least 1892. A version of the dish created in 1932 included bitter almond extract, which is used as an additive on sour cherries, and was described as providing the flavor of maraschino cherry to the sour cherries. It has become a tradition for cherry ice cream to be served at the International Cherry Blossom Festival in Macon, Georgia.

Although they were slow to be adopted, records of banquets show Catherine de' Medici (1519–1589?) serving sixty-six turkeys at one dinner. The dish called cassoulet has its roots in the New World discovery of haricot beans, which are central to the dish's creation, but had not existed outside of the Americas until the arrival of European colonizers. Haute cuisine (, "high cuisine") has foundations during the 17th century with a chef named La Varenne. As author of works such as Le Cuisinier françois, he is credited with publishing the first true French cookbook.

La Varenne was the foremost member of a group of French chefs, writing for a professional audience, who codified French cuisine in the age of King Louis XIV. The others were Nicolas Bonnefon, Le Jardinier françois (1651) and Les Délices de la campagne (1654), and François Massialot, Le Cuisinier royal et bourgeois (1691), which was still being edited and modernised in the mid-18th century. The cookbook was still used in France until the French Revolution. The seventeenth century saw a culinary revolution which transported French gastronomy into the modern era.

Georges Auguste Escoffier (; 28 October 1846 – 12 February 1935) was a famous French chef, restaurateur and culinary writer who popularized and updated traditional French cooking methods. Much of Escoffier's technique was based on that of Marie-Antoine Carême, one of the codifiers of French haute cuisine, but Escoffier's achievement was to simplify and modernize Carême's elaborate and ornate style. In particular, he codified the recipes for the five mother sauces. Referred to by the French press as roi des cuisiniers et cuisinier des rois ("king of chefs and chef of kings"Claiborne, Craig & Franey, Pierre.

These were known as hors d'oeuvre. Hors d'oeuvres were originally served as a canapé of small toasted bread with a savoury topping before a meal. The first mention of the food item was by François Massialot in 1691, mentioned in his book: Le cuisinier roial et bourgeois (The Royal and Bourgeois Cook) and explained as "Certain dishes served in addition to those one might expect in the normal composition of the feast". In the French publication Les plaisirs de la table, Edouard Nignon stated that hors d'oeuvres originated in Asia.

Founder of the eponymous gallery, Pascal Cuisinier was born in 1969 in Saint- Germain-en-Laye. After studying architecture, he specialized in 1930s French Decorative arts and worked at the Antica market of Saint-Ouen. He resumed his studies in plastic arts and art philosophy, and started work on a thesis entitled 'Towards an allographisation of contemporary plastic arts'. In 2006, he returned to Saint-Ouen, at the Paul Bert market, where he is recognized as the design specialist of the French generation born between 1920 and 1930,where the majority of production was produced between 1951 and 1961.

The first documented recipe is from 1651 in La Varenne's Le Cuisinier François for "asparagus with fragrant sauce": Not much later, in 1667, a similar Dutch recipe was published. Thus, the popular theory that the name comes from a recipe that the French Huguenots brought back from their exile in Holland is chronologically untenable. La Varenne is credited with bringing sauces out of the Middle Ages with his publication and may well have invented hollandaise sauce. A more recent name for it is sauce Isigny, named after Isigny-sur-Mer, which is famous for its butter.

The name origin of Mornay sauce is debated. It may be named after Philippe, duc de Mornay (1549–1623), Governor of Saumur and seigneur du Plessis-Marly, writer and diplomat, but a cheese sauce during this time would have to have been based on a velouté sauce as béchamel had not yet been developed. Sauce Mornay does not appear in Le cuisinier Royal, 10th edition, 1820. Perhaps sauce Mornay is not older than the great Parisian restaurant of the 19th century, Le Grand Véfour in the arcades of the Palais-Royal, where sauce Mornay was introduced.

"Châtaignes à la crème", recipe in Jourdan Lecointe, Le cuisinier des cuisiniers, Paris, 1844, p. 438 The Mont Blanc has three distinctive characteristics: it is sweet, it is made of chestnut purée in the form of vermicelli served as a mount or a ring, and it is heaped with whipped cream. A sweet dessert of puréed chestnuts passed through a sieve to make vermicelli shapes--but without the characteristic whipped cream of the Mont Blanc--is called in various French cookbooks starting in 1842 (compote de) marrons en vermicelle.A.

Chéon (1907), Maspéro (1912), and Cuisinier (1948) considered Nguồn to be more closely related to Mường while Mạc (1964), Nguyễn Đ. B. (1975), and Phạm (1975) connected it with Vietnamese. Later linguistic comparison by Nguyễn V. T. (1975) and Nguyễn Ph. Ph. (1996) suggest a closer link with the Mường dialects, and this is echoed by Barker (1993) (and others). Jerold A. Edmondson, Kenneth J. Gregerson, and Nguyen Van Loi mention that this language is of "great interest to those studying the history of Vietic languages" due to its distinct historical developments.See their page on Lesser Known Languages of Northern Vietnam: ling.uta.edu/~jerry/research/.

The first mention of the recipe appeared in Vincent De La Chapelles 1735 recipe book Le cuisinier moderne (the modern cook). La Chapelle presented two recipes for a gâteau de puits d’amour (puits d'amour cake) consisting of a large puff pastry vol-au- vent topped with a pastry handle and stuffed with redcurrant jelly, the ensemble was meant to resemble the bucket of a well. The other recipe is for the petits puits d’amour (small puits d'amour), a bouchée sized variant of the cake. In the eighteenth century, the puits d'amour caused scandal because of its name and presentation which alludes to the female genitalia; nevertheless it was very successful in the court of Louis XV's intimate dinners.

But the name Chantilly is first connected with whipped cream in the mid-18th century, around the time that the Baronne d'Oberkirch praised the "cream" served at a lunch at the Hameau de Chantilly--but did not say what exactly it was, or call it Chantilly cream. The names "crème Chantilly", "crème de Chantilly", "crème à la Chantilly", or "crème fouettée à la Chantilly" only become common in the 19th century. In 1806, the first edition of Viard's Cuisinier Impérial mentions neither "whipped" nor "Chantilly" cream, but the 1820 edition mentions both. The name Chantilly was probably used because the château had become a symbol of refined food;Alan Davidson, The Oxford Companion to Food, s.v. 'cream'.

The Sweet Art", 30 November 1872 The puff pastry technique which now characterizes the croissant was already mentioned in the late 17th century, when La Varenne's Le Cuisinier françois gave a recipe for it in the 1680 and possibly earlier, editions. It was typically used not on its own but for shells holding other ingredients (as in a vol-au- vent). It does not appear to be mentioned in relation to the croissant until the 20th century.

Recipe for "Asparagus in Fragrant Sauce", from La Varenne's, Le Cuisinier françois (1651) quoted in Harold McGee's On Food and Cooking (2004) It also contains the earliest recipe in print for mille-feuille. The cooking of vegetables is addressed, an unusual departure. In a fragrant sauce for asparagus there is evidence of an early form of hollandaise sauce: "make a sauce with good fresh butter, a little vinegar, salt, and nutmeg, and an egg yolk to bind the sauce; take care that it doesn't curdle..." La Varenne preceded his book with a text on confitures-- jams, jellies and preserves--that included recipes for syrups, compotes and a great variety of fruit drinks, as well as a section on salads (1650).

Cento favoli morali, Venice 1570, fable 11 The latter also provides the moral that fair speech is sometimes of great profit (un bel parlar à tempo è gran guadagno) while the similar story in La Fontaine's Fables, which he titles the Swan and the Cook (Le cygne et le cuisinier, III.12), comes to rest on the sentiment that gentle speech does no harm (le doux parler ne nuit de rien).French text online English versions of the fable were recorded by Roger L'Estrange (1698) and George Fyler Townsend (1867)Fables of Aesop and the latter's text was set as the final piece in Bob Chilcott's Aesop’s Fables (2008).Online performance Another fable based on the same folklore appears in the Perry Index as number 233Aesopica but was much less recorded.

In Frankfurt, the Bethmann family name is honored in Bethmannstraße, a short street in Frankfurt's old part of town; the Bethmann park in Frankfurt's Nordend district; and the Bethmannschule, a vocational school for office careers. A statue of Simon Moritz von Bethmann by sculptor Eduard Schmidt von der Launitz was erected on the centenary of his birth in the Friedberger Anlage, a landscaped portion of the razed city ramparts. According to a popular story, the Bethmännchen, a marzipan confection, was created in 1838 by the Paris pastry chef Jean Jacques Gautenier, then the head cuisinier in the Bethmann household. The four almond halves stuck onto the Bethmännchen were said to represent each one of the four sons, with one of the four almond pieces left off following the death of Heinrich in 1845.

Since 2006, Galerie Pascal Cuisinier has advocated the generation of French designers born between 1925 and 1930, who all followed a similar path of education. Trained at either the National School of Decorative Arts (École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs) or the Camondo School (École Camondo), they opened their agency in the early 1950s and then produced their first pieces. Modern and innovative, the pieces they designed were the start of what would become the method of production and distribution of furniture for the following decades, undertaking a shift from Decorative arts to design. Without becoming a group or an artistic movement in its own right, these young designers were a 'generational phenomenon': they shared the same editorial choices and marked their era by participating in an extraordinary artistic revival, typical of the 1950s and 1960s.

The formalized was a creation of the Baroque period, helped by the growth of published cookbooks setting out grand dining as it was practiced at the French court, led by François Pierre de la Varenne's Le Cuisinier françois (1651) and Le Pâtissier françois (1653). As in other matters of taste and fashion, France took over from Italy as the leader of Europe, and by the 18th century the French style was diffused across the rest of Europe, and those who could afford them hired French chefs.Strong, 228–31 Over the course of the 19th century, was replaced by service à la russe in grand dining. This had the advantage of making the food much hotter when it reached the diner, and reducing the huge number of dishes and condiments previously found on the table at the same time.
