  • Cabécou: The Tiny Cheese with Big French Flavor
    In this deliciously cheesy episode, we shine a spotlight on Cabécou — a small but mighty goat cheese that’s full of character and deeply rooted in French culinary history. Often no bigger than the palm of your hand, Cabécou hails from the picturesque regions of Nouvelle-Aquitaine and the Massif Central. But don’t let its size fool you: this creamy gem has a rich past, a distinctive flavor, and a name steeped in the lyrical tones of the Occitan language. We’ll explore Cabécou’s fascinating origin story, tracing its roots back to the Middle Ages and the arrival of goats during the Arab invasion of southern France. You'll learn how its name — derived from “cabe” (goat) and “cou” (little) — offers a charming linguistic window into the local culture. Plus, we take a deep dive into the regions that nurture this cheese to perfection, from the wild, rugged landscapes of the Massif Central to the lush, goat-dotted pastures of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Of course, no episode of Fabulously Delicious would be complete without a sensory journey. Andrew describes the texture, taste, and ideal season for enjoying Cabécou at its finest — think creamy, nutty, and tangy notes that intensify with age. Whether you’re grilling it for a gooey treat, pairing it with walnuts and honey, or adding it to a simple cheese board, you’ll be inspired to savor this French treasure in your own kitchen. So grab your baguette, pour a glass of wine, and join us on this mouthwatering journey through the hills and markets of southwest France. Whether you're a seasoned cheese lover or just beginning your French fromage adventure, this episode will leave you dreaming of your next bite of Cabécou.

  • From Royals to the Stage: The Curious Origins of Crêpe Suzette
    In this episode of Fabulously Delicious, The French Food Podcast, we set the table for one of France’s most theatrical desserts: the Crêpe Suzette. A delicate pancake bathed in a luscious, citrusy, and buttery sauce, then flambéed with flair—this dessert is as much a visual performance as it is a culinary delight. But beyond the flame and flavor lies a mystery: who really invented it? Was it a young apprentice serving royalty, a Parisian actress with stage presence to spare, or a romantic royal rendezvous? Host Andrew Prior takes listeners on a journey through the tangled, tantalizing tales of Crêpe Suzette’s origin. From Henri Charpentier’s alleged kitchen mishap for the Prince of Wales, to the stage antics of actress Suzette Reichenberg and the culinary refinement of legendary chef Auguste Escoffier, this episode dives deep into competing claims, cultural context, and delightful drama. Even Larousse Gastronomique chimes in with its own skeptical take on the more romanticized versions. As always, Andrew spices up the storytelling with fascinating historical detail, a dash of wit, and plenty of gastronomic insight. Alongside the main origin stories, he shares how Crêpe Suzette evolved through time with creative variations across France—like the whisky-flambéed Micheline Crêpe from Bordeaux, or the fruity Laurette pancakes served with Bar-le-Duc jam. It's a delicious reminder that French cuisine is always reinventing itself while honoring tradition. Whether you’re a fan of flambé, a French food lover, or just here for the stories behind the classics, this episode is your perfect serving of dessert history with a side of showbiz. So, pour yourself a glass of something bubbly and enjoy the magic behind one of France’s most iconic sweets. Bon appétit! Looking to deepen your culinary journey beyond the podcast?

  • The Story of Marie Antoine Caréme
    Marie-Antoine Carême wasn’t just any chef—he was the chef des rois et le roi des chefs (the chef of kings and the king of chefs). In this episode of Fabulously Delicious: The French Food Podcast, we delve into the life of this trailblazing culinary artist who revolutionised French cuisine during a time of great upheaval, from the French Revolution to the fall of Napoleon. Known for his towering pièces montées and meticulous codification of French sauces, Carême helped lay the foundations for haute cuisine as we know it. But Carême's talents weren’t confined to the kitchen. He cooked for the likes of Napoleon, the future George IV of England, and Russian Tsar Alexander I, and spent significant time in the service of the famously strategic Talleyrand. Could it be that Carême’s placement in such elite circles had more to do with politics than pastry? A new Apple TV series hints at a fascinating subplot: was Carême a spy? In this episode, we unpack the facts and the fictions. Was Carême truly passing secrets along diplomatic corridors under the guise of preparing extravagant banquets? Or is this just a delicious layer of historical speculation? While the evidence is far from definitive, the possibility adds an irresistible flavour to the story of a man who cooked for the most powerful men in Europe. Join us as we explore Carême’s early life as an abandoned child in Paris, his rise through the culinary world, his groundbreaking contributions to French gastronomy, and the tantalising rumours that swirl around his legacy. Whether he was simply a chef or something far more mysterious, one thing is certain: Carême changed the way the world eats—and maybe, just maybe, the way it thinks.
