OUR FAVORITES
School tasting days
Monday 19th November at the school Saint Sebastien, Beaumes de Venise
The day was dedicated to the creation of a “sablé au safran” by the school children; all classes were present from infants to juniors. It started by working the saffron flower, by pruning them and drying them, then preparing the dough for the shortcake. The children proved to be extremely interested by this workshop, and their first steps in bakery were encouraging. They kept their chefs hats as a souvenir of this day, and will be able to use this recipe again at home under the watchful eyes of their mothers

Mr. Bastide and his magnificent courgettes flowers.
All year round Mr. Bastide supplies us with seasonal vegetables picked at maturity, only several kilometers from the restaurant.
Mr. Cecchine and his long black figs

Mr. and Mrs. Boyer and their herd of Aubrac (cows)
I remember well the meals that my grandmother, originally from Aubrac, used to prepare us. It is on Mr. and Mrs. Boyer’s farm, several kilometers from Laguoile, that we found a quality meat. It is thanks to these farmers that we benefit from a quality meat for much of the year.
Marie and François Pillet, their saffron from the Ventoux in Provence.

The products we use
Forgotten vegetables are honored at the Dolium
During the winter, parsnips, pumpkins, and the Jerusalem artichoke are in many of our recipes. We like to cook these vegetables, either in a soup, or to accompany meat or fish dishes. We like to use them for their taste, colour, and authenticity
