Desc:Synchronous twice a week. This class explores both historically and experientially the fine arts of French cooking. Students will investigate food culture from various perspectives, including recipes from the chefs of kings, famed literary homages, excerpts from contemporary writers, films, and cooking shows. They will present online food blogs or videos sharing their attempts to master an aspect of the historical, regional, or contemporary food culture we have studied; cooking is optional, but creativity is a plus. Topics to be explored include Terroir; the slow food movements; La table d'hote; the role of the cafe and the market in French and Francophone cooking; and reflections on our own national food cultures. Students will gain the necessary vocabulary and cultural knowledge to be able to converse about cuisine with ease with people from any Francophone country, preferably over a long meal.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
