About Us

Welcome to Frogs in Britain, your insider’s guide to the real France for authentic recipes, cultural stories, events, and travel tips for you to find your inner frog!

We aspire to be the trusted, go-to source for authentic regional French cuisine, culture, and travel. We strive to be a warm, welcoming community where everyone can discover the hidden gems of France, learn from the stories of its villages, and bring the spirit of French village life into their own homes and gatherings.

What We Do

We love food, and we share lots of intimate recipes, but we also love the French culture and sight-seeing! So we designed this blog to make regional French cooking and traditions easy and enjoyable for you. Here’s how we do it:

  • Regional French cooking
    Our recipes are carefully selected to spotlight the unique dishes of France’s villages and countryside. With clear instructions and approachable methods, we help you cook with confidence, no matter your experience level.
  • Making ingredients accessible
    We provide ingredient substitution guides and UK-specific sourcing tips, so you can recreate authentic French flavours using what’s available at your local shop.
  • Telling the stories behind the food
    Every recipe comes with a cultural storytelling, tales of local traditions, history, or the people who make each region special.
  • Fueling your explorative mind
    Whether you’re planning a trip or just dreaming from home, our insider travel guides and recommendations help you discover the hidden gems of France.

Our Purpose

  • Preserving and sharing cultural heritage
    By spotlighting lesser-known traditions, recipes, and stories, we help keep the spirit of France’s recipe, culture and villages alive for future generations.
  • Cross-cultural understanding
    We bridge French and British cultures, encouraging curiosity, respect, and appreciation for the diversity of European traditions.
  • Inspiring French and British home cooks
    We inspire confidence and creativity in the kitchen, making regional French cuisine approachable and enjoyable for everyone.
  • Promoting sustainable, mindful living
    We encourage the use of local, seasonal, and accessible ingredients, supporting sustainable food choices and mindful consumption.
  • Building a community of frogs and froglovers
    Through shared recipes, stories, and events, we create a welcoming space where people can connect, learn, and celebrate together, bringing a little bit of Frenchness into everyday life in the UK.

Ultimately, our mission is to make the world feel a little bigger and a lot friendlier, helping you discover, cook, and celebrate the real France, no matter where you live.

So, pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass (of wine or tea, no judgement here), and join us on this delicious journey. Here’s to new flavours, old favourites, and the joy of discovering what makes France so wonderfully unique.
