Scenarios about 'nouvelle cuisine'
Nouvelle cuisine refers to a modernist approach to cooking and food presentation that emerged in France during the 1960s and 1970s, emphasizing lighter, more delicate dishes with fresh ingredients and simpler preparation. This culinary movement, pioneered by chefs like Paul Bocuse and Michel Guérard, represented a significant departure from the heavy, flour-based sauces and lengthy preparation times of classical French cooking. In alternate history scenarios, nouvelle cuisine often serves as a cultural touchpoint for exploring how gastronomic innovations reflect broader social changes and cross-cultural influences.
