MEAT DISHES
The produce displayed in a French butchers shop is different from that in other countries. Meat is expensive, and butchers are expected to provide quality, choice and good service. The cuts, whether large or small, are always beautifully presented, and even stewing cuts, although they may be bony and gelatinous, are still carefully trimmed. There will be a wide choice of offal, too, as well as numerous kinds of sausages. Slow cooking methods like braising and casseroling are popular and meat is often marinated, while the more tender cuts are cooked quickly to keep the full flavour and succulence of the meat
