1. The rhythm of the day and meals in France
French people eat three basic meals: breakfast, lunch and late dinner. Afternoon is usually a small snack. Breakfast, in comparison to other European countries, is not the most important meal of the day. It is considerably smaller and lighter, most often served sweetly. Between 12:00 and 14:00 the meal is lunch. Interestingly, despite the changes taking place around the world, these hours are still regular and up-to-date.2. What a typical French breakfast looks like
In France, in the morning, it's roasted, almost always served on a dessert.. in a typical French breakfast, there's no room for meat, cheese or eggs.3. La tartine
This name is translated as tost, but it is not the typical square, soft pastry. French la tartine is usually a quarter of a baguette cut along the length. This is how you get rectangular curds, which are usually lubricated with butter and/or jam. Small curds are cooked in coffee. French people love jams, jams and marmalades, often prepare them themselves.4. Forests and forests
In a free translation, it means "from Vienna". These are all the sweet, sweet pastries associated with French breakfasts. How did the sweet baked goods from Vienna get to Paris? Most likely thanks to the candy maker Auguste Zang. In the early 19th century, his bakery was established in Paris.5. The most popular pastries
It comes from an Austrian yeast rogalica called kipferl. In France, it is made from French cake, which gives it a distinctive flavor. The most popular are 3 versions: simple croissants, butter and almonds, filled with cream and sprinkled with almond flakes and sugar powder.6. Pain au chocolat
Another French chocolate-flavored cake, often called simply chocolate croissants, but the shape of the roach in this case is not the rule.7. Pain aux raisins
It's similar to the one above, but it's got roosters in it, and they're often shaped like a snail.8. This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union
Baked French pastry topped with apple juice.9. Brioche
a slightly sweet yeast dough with a thin, golden skin inside it is soft and delicate usually a single shape is formed by many spheres which, as they grow, combine with each other and when they are roasted, they are easily separated.10. Pain au lait
Bread and cakes with milk additives are often called butterbreads in Poland. Contrary to popular belief, these products are not eaten every day, for the French, they are typical ingredients for a weekend breakfast.11. Des biscottes
They can be found in almost every French home because they can be stored for a long time, and they are an emergency option, for example, if you don't buy them, you can eat them just like you can fresh bagels with butter and/or fruit butter.12. It's a warm drink
Coffee is usually drunk for breakfast, but more gently than later in the day. Coffee is served in bowls to facilitate the roasting of sweet pastries. Instead of coffee, also to children, chocolate is served to drink, milk or orange juice, rarely apple or pineapple juice.13. What about French toast?
French toast, or crummy bread wrapped in eggs and fried in fat, is a dish that is also enjoyed in other countries, but in France it is rarely served for breakfast. It is much more common at lunchtime.14. Whether it's always been this way, or whether it still is
The typical French breakfast known today became popular in the 19th century. The tradition of baking bread dates back to the 16th century, however. Then instead of coffee (which is not yet known) butter-sweetened bread was milked in the milk. Before the 1800s, breakfasts were usually more abundant, especially for physical workers and children.15. Can French breakfast be healthy?
Typical French breakfasts are very sweet and high in carbohydrates. Sweet pastries also contain a lot of fat, and are also often greased with butter. Such a meal delivers a huge dose of animal fat and simple carbs. It's definitely not for everyone. Taking inspiration from France in the morning should certainly be given up by people with carboxylic disorders and cardiovascular disease. Sweet pastry can also be one of the main sources of trans fat when using low-quality hard margarines for their production.
