Bouchée à la Reine |
Whichever Queen the Bouchée à la Reine was named for, must have had a very big mouth. Seriously, I suspect that the name is actually a corruption of Lorraine, which is the home of this puff pastry case, filled with a comforting mushroom sauce—just right for a November picnic. In Anglosaxonia, we tend to use the Belgian name for this, vol au vent, which is just what I was about to do in the picture as it's windy in Paris today.
