It is impossible to talk about Auvergne without mentioning
the local products for which it is famous: the five AOC cheeses
(Saint-Nectaire, Cantal, Salers, Fourme d’Ambert and Bleu
d’Auvergne). Salt pork products (Oh! That delicious Auvergne
ham and all those sausages!), washed down, in moderation, by good
wines: Saint-Pourçain, Châteaugay, Madargues, Boudes
or Corent.
Other delicious products are also found on the Auvergnat table,
such as the green lentils of Le Puy-en-Velay, tripoux (sheep tripe
parcels), etc. After beginning your Auvergnat meal with a Gentian
or a Salers, you will no doubt enjoy a little glass of Velay Pagès
verbena liqueur at the end, in moderate amounts, of course.
