Gastronomy has historically been a primary factor in defining French regional and national identity, and at the turn of the 20th century, accounts of regional recipes, products, manners and customs penned by local dignitaries became a competitive practice. Belon's Le Patissier contains classic French recipes for biscottis, croquettes, macarons, souffles, biscuits, meringues, chocolates, sorbets, syrups, and liqueurs.
