Pendant les processus de changement institutionnel, notamment dans les champs culturels, les acteurs combinent / hybrident souvent des marqueurs existants et des marqueurs nouvellement inventés, qui relèvent de logiques institutionnelles concurrentes. Malheureusement, nous savons très peu de choses des processus par lesquels les acteurs hybrident ces marqueurs. Les acteurs hybrident-ils les différents types de marqueurs au même moment ? Selon la même ampleur ? Le statut des acteurs affecte-t-il les processus d’hybridation ? La lutte qui marqua le champ de la Grande Cuisine Française au cours de la seconde moitié du 20ème siècle, entre Cuisine Classique et Nouvelle Cuisine, fournit un contexte empirique original pour explorer ces diverses problématiques.

  • Washoku Guidebook(PDF : 3629KB)
    和 食 Traditional Dietary Cultures of the Japanese Itadaki-masu WASHOKU - cultures that should be preserved What exactly is WASHOKU? Maybe even Japanese people haven’t thought seriously about it very much. Typical washoku at home is usually comprised of cooked rice, miso soup, some main and side dishes and pickles. A set menu of grilled fish at a downtown diner is also a type of washoku. Recipes using cooked rice as the main ingredient such as curry and rice or sushi should also be considered as a type of washoku. Of course, washoku includes some noodle and mochi dishes. The world of traditional washoku is extensive. In the first place, the term WASHOKU does not refer solely to a dish or a cuisine. For instance, let’s take a look at osechi- ryori, a set of traditional dishes for New Year. The dishes are prepared to celebrate the coming of the new year, and with a wish to be able to spend the coming year soundly and happily. In other words, the religion and the mindset of Japanese people are expressed in osechi-ryori, otoso (rice wine for New Year) and ozohni (soup with mochi), as well as the ambience of the people sitting around the table with these dishes. Food culture has been developed with the background of the natural environment surrounding people and culture that is unique to the country or the region. The Japanese archipelago runs widely north and south, surrounded by sea. 75% of the national land is mountainous areas. Under the monsoonal climate, the four seasons show distinct differences.

  • The Art of Naming Dishes
    www.bu.edu/bhr Published by the Boston University School of Hospitality Administration Fragments of The Past: The Art of Naming Dishes By Peter Szende and Namrata Sridhar Winter 2020 © Copyright 2020 by Boston University From the start, menus have been a customer’s first impression into the restaurant’s culinary experience. Menus that have been carefully designed have drawn the customer’s eye to specific dishes and provide guidance when selecting a meal. (e.g. McCall & Lynn, 2008) Restaurant menu experts have begun to find that using consumer psychology to design their menus have a direct impact on guest purchases and total revenue. These experts have noted that how a menu item is named can influence the guest perception of the dish. “A highly descriptive name can help create value by priming the guest with positive affects.” (Yang, 2013, p. 8) While descriptive menu labels have been in the center of attention of researchers, the history and practice of naming dishes received little attention. A Brief History of Menus In part, based on Marco Polo’s travel notes in China, we could believe that during the Southern Song Dynasty, the commercially lively 13th century Hangzhou had an important restaurant scene where customers, after being seated at taverns, were handed a menu to choose dishes according to their preferences (Gernet, 1962, Szende, Pang, & Yu, 2013). Similarly, the first menus in Europe appeared at the end of the middle ages. A medieval text written in 1393 “Le Ménagier de Paris,” (The good wife’s guide) presents menus for various occasions and feasts.

  • Reinventing Classics: the Hidden Design Strategies of Renowned Chefs
    Reinventing classics: the hidden design strategies of renowned Chefs Marine Agogué(1), Armand Hatchuel(2) (1) HEC Montréal (2) Centre de GestionScientifique, Mines ParisTech, France Abstract Reinventing classics is a well-used yet complex design pattern. Indeed, a reinterpreted classic needs to relate to the original object while simultaneouslychallenging the initial model and providinga new and fresh look tothe well-established classic. However, this design strategy remains understudied, and we aim to contribute to the literature by addressing the lack of theoretical models for reinventing classics. Reinterpreting tradition is a key process for chefs in the culinary world.Our paper explores how design theories elucidate how chefs reinterpret classics and innovate in their kitchens by stepping away from tradition. Our contribution to the study of design is two- fold.First, from a methodological point of view, we used a framework based on C-K theory and axiomatic design theory to conduct a comparative analysis of recipes for 30 dishes that were reinterpreted by the renowned chef Alain Ducasse. Second, our study identifiedtwo design regimesused by chefs to reinvent classics by focusing on the nature of the set of functions a recipe aims to fulfill. The first regime consists of retaining the same functionsfrom the original recipewhile changing themeans to achieve them. The second requires changing the set of functionsby removing old ones, adding new ones and occasionally designing new ways to achieve the functions. 1. Introduction: modeling culinary innovation Reinventingclassics is a well-known design strategy used in many fields: Fiat redesigned the myth of the Fiat 500, Picasso proposed his own version of Manet’sLuncheon on the Grass, and Murakami drew cherry blossoms on the iconic Louis Vuitton Speedy handbag.

  • Part 3 TRADITIONAL JAPANESE CUISINE
    Part 3 TRADITIONAL JAPANESE CUISINE Chakaiseki ryori is one of the three basic styles of traditional Japanese cooking. Chakaiseki ryori (the name derives from that of a warmed stone that Buddhist monks placed in the front fold of their garments to ward off hunger pangs) is a meal served during a tea ceremony. The foods are fresh, seasonal, and carefully prepared without decoration. This meal is then followed by the tea ceremony. (Japan, an Illustrated Encyclopedia , 1993, p. 1538) Honzen ryori is one of the three basic styles of traditional Japanese cooking. Honzen ryori is a highly ritualized form of serving food in which prescribed types of food are carefully arranged and served on legged trays (honzen). Honzen ryori has its main roots in the so- called gishiki ryori (ceremonial cooking) of the nobility during the Heian period (794 - 1185). Although today it is seen only occasionally, chiefly at wedding and funeral banquets, its influence on modern Japanese cooking has been considerable. The basic menu of honzen ryori consists of one soup and three types of side dishes - for example, sashimi (raw seafood), a broiled dish of fowl or fish (yakimono), and a simmered dish (nimono). This is the minimum fare. Other combinations are 2 soups and 5 or 7 side dishes, or 3 soups and 11 side dishes. The dishes are served simultaneously on a number of trays. The menu is designed carefully to ensure that foods of similar taste are not served. Strict rules of etiquette are followed concerning the eating of the food and drinking of the sake.
