What is another word for ortolan?
Pronunciation: [ˈɔːtəlˌan] (IPA) 
Ortolan is a small, edible bird that has been traditionally hunted for centuries in Europe. In French cuisine, it was once considered a delicacy and a symbol of wealth and status. However, its consumption has been banned in many countries due to its endangered status. As such, there are several other words that can be used to describe similar food items, such as quail, partridge, and pheasant. These birds all have a similar size and texture, and are often cooked using similar methods, such as roasting or frying. Alternatively, vegetarian options could include mushrooms or stuffed peppers.
