Cassoulet
Cassoulet (/ˌkæsəˈleɪ/, also UK: /ˈkæsʊleɪ/,US: /ˌkæsʊˈleɪ/; French: [kasulɛ]) is a rich, slow-cooked stew originating in southern France. The food writer Elizabeth David described it as "that sumptuous amalgamation of haricot beans, sausage, pork, mutton and preserved goose, aromatically spiced with garlic and herbs". It originated in the town of Castelnaudary in the Aude department in the Occitanie region. Variants of the dish are local to other towns and cities in the Aude.
