Time to Go to France




It's time to go to France; you know why? Because last night I used up the last of the cocoa powder I bought in Beaune, and I'm out of the sea salt I brought back from the last trip; I buy the same brand here in the same packaging, but it is invariably larger in texture and clumpy. I still contend that they keep the best stuff in France; like the Dutch, making cheese in black or red wax rind to code if it's for domestic consumption or export??
Anyway, here is a photo of my empty cocoa bag from Beaune. I'll stock up in a few weeks...
The pots are for the fresh mustard from Maille in Dijon. Those get consumed or given as gifts very quickly as they have a definite shelf life.
