Follow Franck Daumas, live from Beaufort-sur-Gervanne, in the “Val de Drôme”.

We were, live from the chocolate factory “La Frigoulette”. for a “Carte Blanche” to Drômois chocolatier Bernard Xueref.

Bernard had invited around him: the MOF chef Alain Berne, the breeders Clémentine Rigaud and his dad Sébastien, (Ferme Rigaud) and the entire Frigoulette team: the chocolatier-sommelier Etienne, Marina, Laurence, Laetitia and Emilie.

A special program, to highlight the good local products of Beaufort-sur-Gervanne, Lamb meat from Ferme Rigaud, chocolates from La Frigoulette and excellent Flacons.

On the menu: Food / Chocolate / Wine Pairings, and Lamb accompanied by its small vegetables and its “Pincée Gourmande….

The MOF chef Alain Berne, (from the Paul Bocuse Institute) had cooked a shoulder of lamb, in black garlic syrup, cooked all night over low heat, served with small butternut flans stuffed with “Tartinail” of Frigoulette.

As for Etienne, he had prepared a “Vegan” chocolate mousse for us that we tasted with the famous “Pincées Gourmandes” from La Frigoulette, Gourmet Pinches with Lime, Basil and Mint. A real treat !!!
