Nivernais

Nivernais (/ˌniːvərˈneɪ/,[1][2] French: [nivɛʁnɛ] ⓘ) was a province of France, around the city of Nevers, which forms the modern department of Nièvre.

It roughly coincides with the former Duchy of Nevers.

[3] The raw climate and soils cause the area to be heavily wooded.

À la nivernaise refers to a cooking style involving a glaze, usually of butter and sugar, although sometimes involving butter and some other ingredient.
