Poulardes A La Godard
EDITORS COMMENTS
- a delightful and elegant dish of poached hens from the late 19th century, as depicted in this photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online. Circa 1890, this image transports us back in time to an era of refined dining and exquisite culinary creations. The dish, named after its creator, Chef Georges Godard, was a popular choice among the French aristocracy and gourmands of the time. The hens, plump and perfectly poached, are arranged artfully on a large, ornate serving platter, their golden brown skin glistening with the rich, savory sauce that envelopes them. The dish is garnished with delicate sprigs of parsley, adding a touch of freshness and color to the presentation. The preparation of Poulardes A La Godard was a labor-intensive process, requiring the hens to be poached in a court-bouillon, a flavorful broth made from white wine, water, onions, carrots, celery, and herbs. The hens were then removed from the broth and the sauce was thickened with a roux, creating a velvety, savory sauce that coated the tender meat. This photograph is not only a testament to the artistry of Chef Georges Godard, but also to the importance of food as a symbol of wealth, status, and enjoyment in late 19th century French society. The intricate presentation of the dish, the rich, savory aroma, and the anticipation of the first bite would have made this a truly memorable dining experience for those fortunate enough to partake in it. Today, this image serves as a reminder of the beauty and elegance of historical culinary traditions, and the enduring appeal of a well-prepared meal.
