Urban France Trip 2019
On Friday we headed to the school of “Gastronomes à Recouvrance” to bake macaroons. First, we made the cookies in our chosen flavors: passionfruit, raspberry, pistachio, and chocolate-caramel. After making the cookies, we made fillings to match. Lastly, we used pastry bags to pipe filling into the cookie sandwiches before we plopped the delicious treats into our mouths.
On my first full day in France, I headed off to the local farmers’ market with my host family. If you’re thinking of the farmers’ market in downtown San Francisco, think again—this one was distinctly French with fresh baguettes, flowers, and music. My favorite part of the outing was exploring the fromagerie filled with French cheeses.
