French's: The art of elevating American cuisine since 1904

Don't let the name fool you: French's is a true icon of American gastronomy. While the brand originated at the legendary 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, it has evolved over the centuries, becoming much more than just a mustard maker. Today, French's is the official partner of bold flavors and crunchy textures.

Present in almost every American home, the brand has established itself as the specialist in "Flavor Enhancers." From the hot dog at the baseball stadium to the family Thanksgiving casserole, French's provides that finishing touch, that tangy or crunchy "little something" that transforms a good dish into a memorable feast.

The French's DNA: Authentic taste, without compromise

French's philosophy is comprehensive: to offer the best condiments for everyday cooking. The brand's DNA is based on the "Real Ingredients" commitment.

Whether it's for its sauces or toppings, French's champions authentic taste. The brand is a pioneer in rejecting artificial flavors, chemical colors, and glucose-fructose syrup in its flagship products. The goal is simple: when you add French's, you're adding real Grade 1 mustard seeds or real onions, for a healthy, honest, and delicious result.

A complete range for seasoning and "crunching"

Although the yellow bottle is its emblem, French's has developed a family of essential products that cover all the needs of BBQ and "Comfort Food" cooking.

The Mustards: Beyond the iconic Classic Yellow (mild and creamy), the range expands with bold variations. Consider the Spicy Brown , more robust for deli sandwiches, or the Honey Mustard , a perfect dip that combines the strength of mustard with the sweetness of honey, ideal for dipping chicken nuggets.
Crispy Fried Onions: This is the brand's other huge success. French's has elevated the fried onion to an art form. Not just a garnish, it's a key ingredient that provides an irresistible salty crunch. Available in Original or flavored versions, they are essential for adding texture to soft dishes (mashed potatoes, soups, salads, burgers).
Worcestershire & BBQ Sauces: Less well-known in Europe but cult favorites in the USA , French's liquid sauces (like their famous Worcestershire) are powerful marinades used to tenderize meats and give that deep "Umami" taste to stews and grilled meats.

At the heart of US culinary traditions

French's is the common thread that links the different American culinary traditions. In summer, it reigns supreme on the grill : yellow mustard is inseparable from the hot dog and the hamburger, providing the necessary acidity to cut through the fat of the meat.

In winter, it becomes the star of casseroles . The famous "Green Bean Casserole" (green bean gratin with creamed mushrooms), a traditional Thanksgiving dish, wouldn't be complete without a generous layer of French's fried onions on top. The brand has managed the remarkable feat of being indispensable year-round, from summer picnics to festive dinners.

Why adopt the French's range in Europe?

For both amateur and experienced cooks in Europe, French's products are invaluable tools. French's mustard makes it possible to create emulsified salad dressings that aren't overpowering, ideal for children. Fried onions, meanwhile, are a lifesaver for many everyday dishes. Just a handful is enough to transform a simple vegetable soup or pasta dish into a flavorful and textured meal. It's that finishing touch of American flair that makes all the difference.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Are French's Fried Onions ready to use?

Absolutely. They're already fried, seasoned, and crispy. Don't cook them again (except for a few minutes in the oven on a gratin). Use them as a garnish just before serving.

What is the difference between Classic Yellow and Honey Mustard?

Classic Yellow is a "standard" mustard (vinegar, mustard seeds, turmeric), tangy and not very sweet. Honey Mustard is a true condiment sauce: it contains real honey, is milder, thinner, and is often used as a dip.

Can you cook with French's mustard?

Yes! It's an excellent ingredient for chicken or pork marinades. The vinegar tenderizes the meat, and the turmeric gives it a beautiful golden color when cooked, without the harshness of strong mustard.
