Always self-confident, this 40-year-old father is an unrivalled handyman. However, for this resident of Barvaux, decorating hasn't always been his first passion. Today, our decorating enthusiast has found his own style. He prefers raw materials and natural elements. This week’s theme suits him like a glove. Geoffrey has every intention of winning this week's competition and becoming the ace decorator. And to win, he's going to have to convince Laetitia.
This week, it is 80 kms from the capital, in Fontainebleau, that Julie is putting down her bags. Fontainebleau, a name famous throughout the world, a magical name which evokes for some a forest, for others a castle, a name which still shines with its royal history. The forest of Fontainebleau has inspired the art world since the beginning of the 19th century. Landscape painters such as Corot and Millet drew inspiration for their works there. But Fontainebleau has many other treasures in its bag, and gastronomy is part of its heritage. This is what Julie will discover through three recipes: Quail with grapes, raspberry and poppy pie and crayfish grave.
It is in Giverny that Julie's journey begins, the place whose name resounds as the cradle of Impressionism has kept a moving authenticity. Its fame is strongly linked to the historical presence of Claude Monet and to all the fabulous witnesses left by him. Claude Monet also left his mark on the cooking in Giverny. His recipe books are there to testify to this. It’s with these notebooks that Julie will be inspired to fill hers, on the menu: Rabbit in compote, andouilles puff pastry with camembert, and apricot charlottes.
Julie heads for Burgundy to discover ancient breeds of poultry reintroduced to France thanks to the work of breeder Fred Ménager. We'll then move on to Auvergne to discover how the famous Label Rouge is awarded and the role of certifying bodies ... because it's important to know what ends up on our plates. Julie also travels to the Drôme to cook guinea fowl, before heading to the Périgord to prepare a turkey stew. Julie will then head back up towards the center to discover an amazing fly maker who uses rooster feathers!
Summer is the season when vegetables abound in the garden, but it would be a shame not to savor those that the cooler seasons have to offer: soups, pies, stews or gratins highlight seasonal vegetables, perfect for a nice warm up. To begin this new journey, Julie will cook salsify. This little tour of France will also allow us to meet gardening goldsmiths who sculpt winter vegetables and fruits. Finally, we will conclude as usual with a recipe from a chef, who will go out of his way to create a seasonal recipe for us.
Today, Julie takes us on a tour of spices and aromatic plants. Spices are a call to travel, to faraway lands and to the unknown. In the kitchen, they bear witness to our relationship with others, reflecting our vision of the world. Julie's journey will introduce us to the famous black pepper, thanks to Erwann de Kerros, an insatiable pepper seeker. Aromatic plants will also be in the spotlight, as we pick them with Edouard Loubet in the Luberon...

Today, Julie sets on the roads of France to talk about an essential product on French tables: cheese.

With nearly 1,000 varieties (soft cheeses, cooked, blue-veined, pressed cheeses…), the French are the biggest consumers of cheese in the world!
