The town of Castelnaudry (11 Aude, Languedoc) celebrates its 10th Fete du Cassoulet designed to reinforce its claim to be the birthplace of Cassoulet. Cassoulet is a rich and filling stew of haricot beans, duck confit, garlic sausage and pork. It can also include Toulouse sausage, mutton or goose, depending on the region in which it is made.
Rick Stein visited the Cassoulet Festival as part of his French Odyssey
