You find the darnedest things in a French supermarket chain store. For instance, canned petit salé and lentils. Who'd've ever thought of that? Why I haven't had petit salé and lentils since . . . the last time I was in Paris!
Accompanying a petit salé is not such a straightforward proposition as accompanying a cassoulet. In the interests of not over-taxing my diminishing memory, I've narrowed my choices down to reds from the Loire or Beaujolais. However, other reds or even Chardonnays could be appropriate.
Loire reds are harder to come by than Beaujolais, so I chose a representative of the former: Bourgeuil. Bourgueil is a cabernet franc wine which may have up to 10% cabernet sauvignon.
Price for wine and canned good: $8.50.
