Edible French: Tasty Expressions and Cultural Bites

The idiosyncrasies of language can tell us a lot about a culture. In this delightful book, Clotilde Dusoulier, creator of the award-winning food blog Chocolate & Zucchini, delves into the history and meaning of fifty of the French languageâ€™s most popular food-related expressions.

Accompanied by beautiful watercolor illustrations by artist MÃ©lina Josserand, Edible French explores whimsical turns of phrase such as:

Tomber dans les pommes (falling into the apples) = fainting
Se faire rouler dans la farine (being rolled in flour) = being fooled
Avoir un cÅ“ur dâ€™artichaut (having the heart of an artichoke) = falling in love easily

A treat of a read for Francophiles and food lovers alike, Edible French is the tastiest way to explore French cultureâ€”one that will leave you in high spiritsâ€”or, as the French say, vous donnera la pÃªche (give you the peach).
