New? Start Here

Hi there, and welcome!

I am Audrey Le Goff – the recipe developer, cook, baker, writer and photographer behind this food blog. I am a French native, born and raised in Brittany, on the Atlantic Coast of France. I am deeply passionate about food and love sharing this passion with others.

What is Pardon Your French all about?

Pardon your French is a blog devoted to bringing French flavors to your own kitchen. Here you will find classic French recipes, lesser-known regional dishes and a few modern takes.

Making French cooking easy, approachable and cliché-free is my priority. Being a home cook myself, I focus on sharing simple home-cooking recipes and techniques that are accessible to any home cook – while maintaining the authentic taste and look of the French dishes I grew up eating.

The recipes on this blog are developed and made using ingredients and products available in the US and Canada (and often available in other countries as well). I lived 12 years in Ontario, Canada – which gave me a great understanding of how to adapt French recipes for everyone, while keeping their authentic flavors. Recipes are offered in both metric and imperial measurements, along with Fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures.

The best way to start browsing this blog is to head straight to the home page, by clicking on the Pardon Your French logo at the top. Here you’ll will find the latest posts and recipes published.

If you are looking for a specific French recipe, like Beef Bourguignon, Ratatouille or Homemade Croissants, use the search bar at the top of the right sidebar.

And if you are looking for a dinner or dessert idea but don’t have anything specific in mind, visit the recipe index to see all the recipes classified by category.
