This post is a bit of a departure from my previous short essays. In this one, I will mainly share some great links to distinctly European traditions and history.
First, a wonderful little blog with the purpose of educating you about 18th century French cuisine. Great articles about foie gras. I have this feeling that you really haven’t lived until you’ve had fattened goose liver. I’ll let you know if my gut is correct, if I’m forturnate enough to have some.
Here is another blog where you can find many recipes, European gastronomic curiosities, and related historical facts. Where else can you find a recipe for whale goulash?
How about This Day in European History?
The incomplete, but worthwhile Encyclopaedia of the Celts. Poor Diarmuid, you’ve really got to watch out for those wild boars. As a companion to this link, visit Who Were the Celts?
I leave you, for now, with the World of the Ancient Britons and English Heritage.
