The Le Minage media library, in Montbron, recently organized a meeting with residents of the retirement home and some residents of the neighborhood to talk about recipes from their childhood. During this memory exercise, Marie-Claude spoke of the rabbit stew that her mother simmered on the corner of the wood stove near Grassac. Andrée, who for more than ten years ran the restaurant Le Bon Coin, near Lindois, detailed the recipe for cream puffs: 85 wheat flour, egg sugar, butter and a hint of baking soda. soda. Inexhaustible, she continued with the recipes for Burgundy snails and the dishes and desserts that she cooked for the Christmas holidays. Renée was a specialist in beef cheeks with carrots, snails in Périgourdine or Pineau style, as well as Caen-style tripe. All to be enjoyed with the family, of course. Mauricette made the audience salivate with her fruity but not acidic lemon meringue pie thanks to some pastry chef tips. These ladies were accompanied by Noée and Édith, manager and facilitator of the media library, and Catherine, the facilitator of the retirement home.
