Laika… Will try!! Sounds like an interesting pairing. As per the butter, it’s true you don’t find it much any more. But you can always ask for it!

Olive oil and Roquefort. Mmmm, yum!!! If you still haven’t tried this combination, you must…

As for butter, I always hate not having some at the table in French restaurants before the actual meal. Not even in Normandy, butter ‘country’. Shame…

Hello guys,

I live in Jaen and my family owns an olive trees explotation. We produce olive oil right from the fruit. No chemichal process or any bull. Olive juice. In spain producers are having tough time ’cause we can not compete with the big distribution companies which buy low cuality olive and make the big money. I am thinking to move to paris and sell my own oil like a peasant in the market. I could sell 5 liters bottle between 50 and 60 euros.

Well, yes…I mean “don’t be Hatin’ ” in the very urban sense…as in “don’t be disrespectin’ on the butter just because it comes from a well fed cow and it’s all fattening and filling.” Should I throw in a couple of snaps as well? Read the article, we were speaking identical languages. What I enjoy most is that French butter is for eating, (elegant,delicate) not for cooking (certainly not the expensive imports we get in the States.) Do not start me…I would go on and on about all butter’s (French and otherwise) virtues. Enough….moving on…

ah… butter. I miss butter, there is no butter here in Japan. And good bread.

I love butter. Olive oil too, but butter more.

Martine… Thx for sharing!
Elizabeth… Thank you for these praises for French butter. I like it too. And don’t worry – it’s not about hating, it’s about assering superiority: très différent!

Too bad…French butter is the finest in the world. (One can argue Irish and English butter have more distinctive flavors) Oh well, more for me! : )
But butter cohabitates with olive oil in anyone’s pantry. no need for anyone to be hating!
