Talk:Coq au vin

Untitled
Coq au vin is definitely not a soup - it's a stew. The category should be renamed "Soups/Stews" or a separate "Stews" category should be created. Babyluck 15:55 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Techniqually, Coq au vin is not merely chicken, it is only the male, or rooster (Coq in French). Otherwise, it would be Poulet au Vin -Random observer — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chicdat (talk • contribs) 07:00, 29 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Of course coq literally means "rooster". But in fact, coq au vin is made with all kinds of poultry. It's a name, not a description. The Hungarian wine called "Bull's blood" isn't made out of bull's blood, either. The Trésor de la langue française says that coq au vin is "fait à partir d'un coq, d'un poulet ou d'une autre volaille". I've added that info to the article. --Macrakis (talk) 16:19, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
