Is France's most popular food Croisstants?
No. Croissants a yeast raised, butter-rich, flaky pastry which can be either formed in a crescent shape or as a straight rolled shape while a pastry commonly eaten at breakfast could not be described as France's most popular food. It is an item of what is called Viennoiserie which alludes to its supposed origin in Vienna. The popular legend is that these pastries are made in a crescent shape to celebrate the victory of the Viennese over the Muslim Turks at the siege of Vienna, the crescent referring to the Muslim crescent Moon symbol. Viennese pastry cooks later brought this style of pastry to Western Europe. In fact this type of flaky pastry is endemic to Central Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean. The same pastry is used in france to produce other baked products notably chocolate filled "Petits pains au chocolat" and the "pain au raisin" a spiral pastry filled with raisins and patissier's custard.These are commonly breakfast treats or morning snacks. Recently croissants split and filled with cooked ham and sauce bechamel have begun to be more common in bakeries and patissier's shops and are sold as a substantial lunch time snack but these are not a traditional part of French food. Curiously croissants prepared using butter and only butter "croissants pur beurre" are not crescent shaped but straight whereas crescent shaped croissants are prepared using margarine and some butter. The difference in shape is enforced by law as a consumer protection.
Croissants are a favorite pastry of what country?
France.
