French term or phrase: origine certifiée et contrôlée
Bonjour,

je me permets de poser à nouveau une question concernant la traduction que je réalise actuellement au sujet du foie gras. Il s'agit d'expliquer les normes et certifications qui permettent de garantir la bonne qualité du foie gras.

Une de mes têtes de chapitre s'intitule "Une origine certifiée et contrôlée".

Comment traduiriez-vous cela svp ?

Merci beaucoup par avance !

Belle journée à tous,

Santillane

disagree  Daryo: that' not what the ST says - you could "certify" something without doing any "control" [the ST says and insists on as a key point: "contrôlée"]; can't presume it's the same, same as you can "certify" something without it being "registered" anywhere

agree  Daryo: yes, it's related to that, but OTOH for this title you can't simply reproduce verbatim this designation.
