Calling all guru chefs...I'm in need of HELP! I'm writing a paper on aspics and chaud froid for school and I'm having trouble finding any information on their origin. Any other information on this topic would be very helpful. Thanks!
Don't know where it originated but I know that aspic was used to preserve food, prevent it from drying out keeping in the foods moisture and freshness. Chaud-froid, means hot-cold. It's made hot but served cold. Used for buffet displays or as coating meats puoltry and game. Hope this helps.
