A gourmet basket of Lyon and the Rhône department, filled with products from small, authentic producers from this region, which will take you on a voyage of discovery of the generous gastronomy of Lyon, with some very fine gourmet discoveries..
Winegrower : Domaine Bourbon, Exploitation Viticole Familiale Bio, Jean-Luc, Dorian and Delphine Bourbon.
2stars in the Guide Hachette des Vins 2023.
North of Lyon, the Beaujolais AOC is home to a number of nuggets wines... On their family-run organic estate since 2022, where the golden-yellow limestone known locally as "pierres dorées" outcrops, Jean-Luc, Dorian and Delphine work their grape varieties with the utmost respect for the environment and their vines, limiting yields and producing delicious wines from Gamay, the king of red Beaujolais grapes.
To accompany your Lyonnais gourmet basket tasting, we've chosen their Cuvée Claudius, made from the estate's best Gamay plots. Long vatting and ageing in oak barrels give this wine roundness and silky tannins, while retaining the fruity, gourmet touch of Gamay. A far cry from Beaujolais nouveau!
Enjoy it with the sausage or quenelles in your gourmet box.
Artisanal producer: Maison Duculty.
To get your gourmet basket of Lyon off to a good start, here's a classic local aperitif: sausage, but not just any sausage: from Maison Duculty, charcutiers for 5 generations! This family perpetuates the traditional production of dry sausage in the heart of Pilat in the Rhône-Alpes region. The one we've chosen is natural and handcrafted in the old-fashioned way, using only the finest cuts of fresh pork and no coloring agents. This local delicacy is best enjoyed in very thin slices (2 mm) at room temperature.
Important: this sausage, like all natural sausages, does not go mouldy, or it will need to be stored for a number of years! However, it is possible and common to find a bloom (white, even greenish) forming on the natural casing of the sausage. This is penicillium, a derivative of penicillin, the same as that found in Roquefort cheese, for example. It's very healthy, and a sign of good quality sausage as long as it doesn't develop a bad smell! As for the skin, yes, it can be eaten (like that of chorizo, sausages and black pudding), but we advise you to remove it to appreciate the full flavor and finesse of this artisanal sausage. Store in its canvas bag (included in this gift box!) at the bottom of your fridge.
Artisan : Y a que de belles gourmandises, Hervé Rolland Confiturier - Biscuitier.
Tasty and crunchy, these crunchy crackers made by Hervé subtly incorporate perfectly the sweetness of onion.
Addictive as an aperitif spread, for example with our artisanal pheasant terrine!
Artisan : Les Saveurs du Lyonnais, Artisan - Charcutier Christophe Granjon.
Based in Brindas, a small village near Lyon, our craftsman uses carefully selected regional meats to create delicious terrines without the addition of coloring agents, preservatives or additives.
In this unctuous terrine, the pheasant is enhanced by a fruity touch that will delight you on toast.
Artisan caterer: Daniel et Denise, Traiteur & Bouchon Lyonnais. Chef Joseph Viola, Meilleur Ouvrier de France.
What would a gastronomic trip to the Lyonnais region be without a pike quenelle?
Spoon-formed, gourmet and airy, with a well-balanced taste of pike, the quenelle is an emblematic dish from Joseph Viola, Meilleur Ouvrier de France, who has jarred his cuisine and served it in their Lyonnais bouchons to our delight. It's fine and richly flavored, with the master stroke of preserving a beautiful texture despite the jarring: a real gourmet success!
Reheat over a low heat in a pan or in the oven, and you're ready to go.
Artisan : Y a que de belles gourmandises, Hervé Rolland Confiturier - Biscuitier...
Pink pralines, those almonds surrounded by delicious bright-red sugar, are obviously a staple of Lyon's gastronomy. But we wanted you to discover them with that touch of originality that makes all the difference.
In homage to the most Lyonnais of sweets, our artisan has concocted this praline jam, a delight on toast or simply... with a spoon!
Artisans: Biscuits et Gourmandises, Artisan - Biscuitier, Samantha Bellencontre and Frédéric Biard.
Here's another way to discover pink pralines. Samantha and Frédéric have opted for an eco-responsible approach, choosing for their recipes ingredients largely sourced from Lyonnais producers or manufacturers located less than 100 kms from their workshop, and refusing to include chemical additives, preservatives or artificial flavoring in their creations. The result is cookies that are reminiscent of childhood, but with a touch of originality that makes all the difference.
Here, a delicious cookie with chips of pink Lyon pralines that add a crunchy note to the softness of the cookie: we love it!
Every month, we have our new gourmet boxes tested by independent testers (we don't pay them! We just send them one of our boxes), specialized in the world of gourmet boxes, to get external opinions (we'd obviously give them 10/10 every time...) and publicize our latest gourmet baskets, because we're proud of them, and we have to play the game of criticism...
The excellent results of the test of our Box gourmande sud-ouest du Gers on the Laboxdumois website: not bad!
