英语词汇carême的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Carême. “The king of cooks and the cook of kings” was born in Paris on June 8, 1784, in his own words one of 25 children “of one of the poorest families in France.” Marie-Antoine Carême worked from the time he was seven as a kitchen scul- lion. In his teens he was accepted as an apprentice chef and af- ter much study under many masters went on to found la grande cuisine française, classic French cooking as we still know it to- day. Carême’s creations reflected his considerable artistic abili- ties, his pastries often looking more like sculpture than food. His supreme taste and meticulous standards illustrated in his many books, as well as his 48-course dinners, made French cuisine sovereign throughout Europe. Among other notables, Carême cooked for Talleyrand, the future George IV of En- gland, Czar Alexander I, Lord Castlereagh, Baron Rothschild (the world’s richest man), and France’s Louis XVIII, who grant- ed him the right to call himself “Carême of Paris.” But his motto was “One master: Talleyrand. One mistress: Cooking.” Mon- arch of the entire culinary empire, his name today symbolizes a great chef. He died on January 12, 1833 while sampling a quenelle of sole prepared by a student in his cooking school. Someone wrote that he had died “burnt out by the flame of his genius and the heat of his ovens.”
