Fruits and legumes exotiques
Naturellement curieux et gourmand, l'homo sapiens n'a pas attendu la mondialisation et la globalisation pour mettre sur sa table les bananes, le gingembre, les oranges, l'ananas. La technologie aidant, la carambole, la chayote, le dourian, l'igname et une centaine d'autres fruits et légumes répertoriés dans l'ouvrage de Jean-Louis Thémis sont venus enrichir le patrimoine de l'Occident, toujours avide de saveurs nouvelles. |
