Rails Elasticsearch analyzer mappings defined in model are not reported in elasticsearch

Question

In my Recipe model I have :

class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base

index_name "recipes-#{Rails.env}"

settings do
  mappings dynamic: 'false' do
    indexes :title, type: 'string', analyzer: 'french'
    indexes :description, type: 'string', analyzer: 'french'
  end
end

def as_indexed_json(options={})
  self.as_json({only: [:title, :description]})
end

Then in rails console, I launch Recipe.import. When asking to elasticsearch via curl or Sense GET /recipes-development/_mapping/, I get

{
   "recipes-development": {
      "mappings": {
         "recipe": {
            "properties": {
               "description": {
                  "type": "string"
               },
               "title": {
                  "type": "string"
               }
            }
         }
      }
   }
}

I have lost all informations about analyzer. Any idea would be appreciated

Before Recipe.import you have to execute

Recipe.__elasticsearch__.create_index! force: true
