Following Chefs Loiseau, Ducasse and Sarran, prune kernel oil is going to make an appearance in the menus created by Michel Troisgros, in his three-star restaurant in Roanne, in the Loire.

Nathalie Barrère, who markets this superior quality product on the Vidalou estate, certainly has something to smile about. This oil is the fruit of an adventure that began in 2001, thanks to the determination and creativity of Jean-Pierre Clavié, its founding producer. This cold-pressed kernel oil can be used for both cooking and seasoning. Indeed, it is here that it truly finds its flavour dimension, especially when used in desserts. For the Perles de Gascogne company, in Pujols, this is a new stage in their conquest of the international market of food & wine.
