Meals in French. French cuisine menu. Other traditional French dishes

Recipes for these treats were born in the provinces and in royal castles from delicacies and village provisions, centuries ago. It is not for nothing that French chefs know the secrets of preparing a huge gastronomic assortment, nevertheless, strictly observing some nuances... First of all, food is served in small portions, which is apparently why French women are distinguished by their slender figures. It should also be noted that soups are prepared thick, but easy to digest.

The five most commonly used ingredients in recipes are:

Another point - when frying the meat, they add wine, which evaporates, having time to imbue the product with an unusual taste. French chefs always remember the Burgundian proverb: “drink white wine in the morning, red wine in the evening, so that the blood is good” - therefore, a filled glass always decorates interesting presentations. The description of the characteristic features would not be complete if we did not mention Roquefort cheese and Provencal sauce, famous both here in Russia and throughout the world. Desserts deserve special attention: airy, melting in the mouth, conducive to dreams, they make you want to enjoy the amazing taste forever. You can do all this at home, feeling the Parisian flavor. You can quickly master any recipes for French cuisine. Maybe it's time to surprise your loved one with a romantic dinner with the aroma of an original combination of spices?

L'alimentation est très importante pour chaque organisme. L'alimentation et la santé sont des moments qui jouent un rôle vraiment grand dans la vie des êtres vivants. Nous vivons pour être sains et pour avoir la possibilité de travailler, d'aimer, d'élever les enfants et de faire quelque choses utiles pour les autres. L'alimentation se révèle saine si on respecte l'équilibre alimentaire: il est à noter qu"on recommande de consommer ni trop peu, ni trop beaucoup. En plus, le plus important c"est de consommer tout ce qui est nécessaire pour l 'organisme: par example, de la viande, du poisson, des legumes, des fruits, des products du lait...

L'alimentation a l"influence considérable sur la dureté et la qualité de la vie humaine. Il faut accentuer l"attention sur ce qu"en combinaison avec les exercises de corps on peut prolonger la vie active d"une personne. En ce qui concerne aussi l"alimentation saine il est à éviter les produits nuisibles pour l"organisme humain comme: le tabac et l"alcool. En plus, on ne doit pas se limiter par une liste stricte de produits alimentaires: l'alimentation doit se composer de tous les produits se revélant utiles pour l'organisme. On peut construire quelques règles principales à suivre:

  • consommer au minimum cinq fruits et légumes par jour;
  • faire les exercises de corps chaque jour;
  • manger à temps et en quantité suffisante afin d"avoir de la force et de l"énergie;
  • se réposer un peu après la journé

Donc tout le monde doit suivre les points affichés ci-dessus: l’alimentation rationnelle est surtout indispensable pour les enfants, les personnes âgées et tous qui travaillent.

Chaque personne doit prendre le repas quatre fois par jour: le petit-dejeuner, le déjeuner, le dîner et le souper. Il est surtout utile de prendre le repas toujours en même temps parce que la santé est le trésor de chacun.

Translation

Nutrition is very important for the body of any person. Nutrition and health are aspects that play a truly significant role in the life of living beings. We live to be healthy and to be able to work, love, raise children and do something useful for other people. Nutrition is healthy if you maintain balance: it should be emphasized that it is recommended to eat neither too little nor too much. In addition, it is extremely important to eat what the body needs: for example, meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, dairy products...

Food has a significant impact on the length and quality of human life. It should be noted that in combination with physical exercise, a person’s active life can be extended. As for a healthy diet, you should avoid foods that are harmful to the human body, such as tobacco and alcohol. In addition, there is no need to limit yourself to a certain list of food products: it should consist of all products that are beneficial to the body. It is necessary to propose several rules that must be followed:

  • eat at least five fruits and vegetables a day;
  • do physical exercise every day;
  • eat on time and in sufficient quantities to have strength and energy;
  • rest a little after a working day.

In general, everyone should follow the above points: rational nutrition is especially necessary for children, older people and everyone who works.

Every person should eat four times a day: first breakfast, breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is especially useful to always eat at the same time, because health is a treasure for every person.

Food is something without which our life is impossible. Food plays an important role in a child's life. Food not only provides him with the substances necessary for life. Food is also a source of all kinds of sensations and impressions. Smells, colors, tastes... Hard, soft, liquid... Children learn about the world while eating. Let's learn to talk about this in French too

  • To use the materials correctly, please read
  • To properly prepare your child for lessons, read
  • Don't skip topics, do them sequentially. But it is possible and advisable to return to the topics covered periodically.
  • To start each lesson off right, use language transition rituals. You can read about them in Introductory Lessons
  • If you are just starting to learn this language yourself, then it will be useful for you to read

Tasks

Tasks can be done in any order or combined with each other.

№1

Tell your child phrases from the templates, combining different words. Speak whole phrases, not individual words (“C’est une pomme”, not just “pomme”). Be sure to accompany your words with positive emotions and actions. Show real and toy food, photographs or pictures of food and how people eat. Use toys to show similar situations, how they prepare food, eat, treat each other, put away dishes and wash dishes. Accompany each action with the appropriate phrase:

  • - Veux-tu manger une pomme? (Do you want to eat an apple?)
  • - Oui. Je veux manger une pomme. Donne-moi une pomme, s’il te plaît (Yes. I want to eat an apple. Give me an apple, please)
  • — Prend cette pomme (Take this apple)
  • — Merci (Thank you)

Don't translate anything. Repeat each phrase several times. It is not necessary to use all the phrases and words in one lesson. One such task should last no more than 3-7 minutes, then finish the lesson or move on to any other task. Use toys, make scenes and mini-dialogues with them to show your child the principle of this task.

№2

Go with your child to the kitchen! Cook together! Set the table together! Wash the dishes together! And comment on all your actions in French.

Example:

1. Cooking together

  • — Faisons une tartine (let's make a sandwich)
  • - Nous prenons un pain. Nous coupons une piece de pain. Nous mettons cette pièce de pain sur la plaque jaune. Nous prenons un beurre. Nous coupons une piece de beurre. Nous mettons cette pièce de beurre sur cette pièce de pain. Nous prenons un fromage. Nous coupons une piece de fromage. Nous mettons cette pièce de fromage sur cette pièce de pain. C'est tout! Nous avons une tartine. Veux-tu manger cette tartine? Prend-le. (We take bread. We cut off a piece of bread. We put this piece of bread on a yellow plate. We take butter. We cut off a piece of butter. We put this piece of butter on this piece of bread. We take cheese. We cut off a piece of cheese. We put this piece cheese on this piece of bread. That's it. We have a sandwich. Do you want to eat this sandwich? Take it!)
  • — Cuisinons les crêpes (let's prepare pancakes)
  • - Nous prenons une poêle et le mettons ici. Prenons aussi les œufs, le lait, la farine, le sel et le sucre. Nous mélangeons le tout... (take a frying pan and put it here. We also take eggs, milk, flour, salt and sugar. Mix everything...)

2. Set the table

  • - Aid-moi à mettre la table s’il te plaît! Prend ces tasks verts. Mett-le sur la table s’il te plaît. (Help me set the table, please! Take these green cups. Place them on the table, please)
    - Merci! Tu m'as aidé à mettre la table! (Thank you! You helped me set the table)

3. Wash the dishes (you wash real dirty dishes yourself, the child can wash clean dishes in a basin with clean water nearby, or toy dishes in a basin nearby - this is useful not only for the development of vocabulary in French, but also for the development of fine motor skills

  • — Faisons ensemble la vaisselle (Let's wash the dishes together)
  • - Je vais prendre une tasse. Cette tasse est sale. Tu as bu le lait de cette tasse. Je les lave. Maintenant, il est propre. Et nous voyons - cette tass est bleu. (I take a cup. This cup is dirty. You drank milk from this cup. I wash it. Now it is clean. And we see - this cup is blue)
  • - Je prends un plaque... (I take the plate)
  • - Je prends une cuillère.. (I take a spoon)
  • - Qu'ai-je pris? Qu'est-ce que c'est? C'est vrai! C'est un couteau. Je vais laver un couteau. Je lave le couteau. Maintenant, le couteau est propre. (What did I take? What is this? That's right! This is a knife. I will wash the knife. I wash the knife. Now the knife is clean.

This way you can do your homework and study. When a child passes new words “through his hands,” that is, he picks up objects and names them. He remembers words better thanks to his associative memory.

№3

Have tea parties and feasts with toys. Select appropriate dialogues?

  • - Buvons du thé. Veux-tu boir du thé noir ou vert? (Let's have some tea. Do you want to drink black or green tea?)
  • - Je veux boire du thé noir. (I want to drink black tea)
  • - Je te donne une tasse de thé noir. Veux-tu du thé avec du sucre ou sans sucre? (I give you a cup of black tea. Do you want tea with sugar or without sugar?)
  • - Je veux boire du thé avec du sucre. (I want to drink tea with sugar)
  • - Ok. J'ai mis du sucre dans ta tasse. (Okay. I put sugar in your cup)

Play the same principle in a cafe or restaurant

№4

Look at different pictures and photographs depicting dishes, food, and how people eat. Paintings by great artists with still lifes and depictions of a meal are very suitable. At the same time, you can start introducing your child to painting. Name all the objects you see. Describe their color and size. List people and say what they do.

Your family photos can also be used.

№5

Read any poem to your child, show pictures of food and perform the necessary movements according to the text. You can sing each verse to any melody. Repeat the poem several times at a time. Connect toys to the game. Let them do the movements too. You will find the poems below.

№6

Draw, sculpt and make colorful crafts as much as possible. Draw food, furniture, your kitchen, how you have breakfast and lunch. Make fruits, vegetables, dishes, treat toys with what you made. Name colors and sizes.

The funnier and more unusual your drawings are, the better. Surprise your child. Only bright and positive impressions make a child remember something and make him want to repeat after you.

№7

Watch the video, sing along (at least only those words that you know) and perform the movements.

New vocabulary

  • You should know these new words before starting lessons with your child.
  • You can learn words not all words at once, but in groups of 3-5 words, and gradually add them over several days
  • The third column shows the transcription in Russian letters. Attention! Not all French sounds can be expressed in Russian letters! This is especially true for nasal sounds (when the syllable ends in n), the burry French r, as well as some vowels. To avoid mistakes, be sure to read
  • For new vocabulary, use only those products that are familiar to your child. You can add something else that your child likes.
  • If your child already knows how to count. Begin actively in this topic (if you have not done so before) to use numbers in French (1 - un, 2 - deux, 3 - trois, 4 - quatre, 5 - cinq, 6 - six, 7 - sept, 8 - huit, 9 - neuf, 10 - dix). If your child does not yet know how to count, you can still use numbers up to 5 when necessary.

Quick Grammar Help

  • to you: s’il vous plaît

2. Fused article (the preposition de merges with the definite articles when they come after it):

  • de + le = du

1. Lesson summary.

A textbook of the French language for the 6th grade of general education institutions “Blue Bird”. Authors: N.A. Selivanova. A.Yu. Shashurina.

There are a sufficient number of restaurants in France that offer their visitors menus in foreign languages, including Russian. Most cafes limit themselves to English as a second language. But, unfortunately, the better the restaurant, the less likely you are to find a menu in any language other than French. This is what the rules of etiquette dictate.

We dedicate this article to how to properly understand the French menu, even if you don’t know a word in this language.

First rule: there is always a menu at the entrance to a French restaurant.

In any French restaurant or cafe there is always a menu, which is located immediately at the entrance to the establishment. There you can easily see the list of dishes and prices. And you will immediately understand whether it is worth going to this establishment or not.

Rule two: distinguish between the menu and the map

The word “menu” in Russian and French means different things. What we call a “menu” the French call “ La carte "(la kart). And here is the word " Menu " means what we usually call a “business lunch” or a similar set. Usually this is a set of 2-3 dishes, which is valid on certain days and times and costs less (fixed price) if you ordered it all separately. The title " Formula du jour ". So be careful. If you ask the waiter to bring exactly the “menu,” he may misunderstand you, decide that you have already made your choice and start bringing food (this is rare, but it happens).

La Carte de Vins- This wine map.

There is also such a subspecies "Une degustation" - This tasting of several dishes, or, for example, types of beer. They will bring you a little of everything.

Rule three: Find out what is written on the French menu

French food can include numerous sections. They will be arranged in the following order (they should be used in the same order):

  • un apéritif - aperitif. This is a cocktail or a small portion of strong alcohol (whiskey, vodka, etc.) that the French take before dinner. It is believed that an aperitif allows the appetite to run wild.
  • un amuse-bouche or amuse-gueulesnack. As we would say, for one tooth.
  • une entrée- it is too snack, but already more. This includes fairly satisfying dishes, but in small portions. For example, there may be onion soup or salad.
