Cordon Bleu is an exquisite dish of French cuisine that combines tender pork, creamy cheese, and aromatic ham. Its history begins in Switzerland, where culinary masters aimed to create a dish worthy of the 'Blue Ribbon' (Cordon Bleu), a symbol of top culinary skill. The classic recipe is complemented by a crispy golden crust formed during frying with a mix of canola oil and butter. This preparation gives Cordon Bleu an appetizing texture: a crunchy exterior and juicy, tender filling with melting cheese inside. It is served with slices of fresh lemon that enhance its rich flavor. This dish is perfect for a dinner you want to turn into a true gastronomic delight.
