		The Prince de Cond's cook Vatel (1635-71) commits suicide by falling on his sword when the fish he ordered for a banquet honoring Louis XIV fails to arrive.
		Notable is the use of mushrooms and truffles, imparting more delicate flavors, and the use of butter in pastries and sauces instead of oil.
		Pierre Franois de la Varenne (1615-78) publishes the first cookbook to give an insight into the new cooking practices of the French: Le Cuisinier Franois.

	Cream (food)
		(Whipped cream is said to have been invented in 1671 by Franois Vatel for a banquet in honor of Louis XIV of France, though it's likely that it was actually known long before this.) If the whipping is continued, the fat droplets stick together and form Butter ; the remaining liquid is Buttermilk.
		This roughly doubles the cream's volume as air bubbles are captured in a network of fat droplets.
