Ep 281 The Escoffier Series, Ch 13, Vegetables and Farinaceous Products

Eating Liberty podcast from the Culinary Libertarian

The Escoffier Series continues as we move into chapter 13.

Vegetables is a massive category. Escoffier makes no efforts to be complete simply because there's always innovation that he could never account for.

We start the chapter with his list of vegetables (gnocchi and polenta and noodles is for later). Boiling, blanching he calls it, is the first cooking method. Is salted water really necessary? Is it important to keep the water boiling?
