History of the Cassoulet:
It is the most famous meal of the Occitan Cuisine. The official Cassoulet Academy is located in a town between Toulouse and Carcassonne, Catelnaudary.
If you ask people, many would say it is the traditional dish of the south west of France. Although this meal is originally from Occitanie, it is today worldwide famous!
Ingredients:
Ingredients can be different but the goal is the same: use locally produced goods when you can! You can add any meat you can find around the place you live: lamb, pork ring, sausages, etc... as long as you keep the main ingredients: beans, preserved meat (confit), and pork sausages.
The influence of Prosper Montagné:
Prosper Montagné was a French chef who was from Carcassonne.
The members of the Universal Cassoulet Academy try to be respectful of the history of the dish and try to remain loyal to the "Trilogy" Prosper Montagné described: "Cassoulet is the good of Occitan cuisine, a God with three hearts: Castelnaudary, the Father; Carcassonne, the Son; Toulouse, the Holy Spirit: they are all Cassoulet!"
