Canut

The canuts (French: [kany]) were Lyonnais silk workers, often working on Jacquard looms.

[citation needed] The canuts were Lyonnais silk workers in the 19th century, often working on Jacquard looms primarily in the Croix-Rousse neighbourhood.

According to historian Gérard Cholvy, the revolts had a profound effect on the French scholar Frédéric Ozanam.

Laurent Mourguet was an unemployed canut when he created the character Guignol and his eponymous puppet show for children, supposedly in his own image.

The dish is a base of fromage blanc, seasoned with chopped herbs, shallots, salt, pepper, olive oil and vinegar.
