Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Maison du Miel's heather honey ice cream

    • cespitler on November 03, 2012

      As a new beekeeper and a big fan of ice cream, I couldn't wait to try this recipe. The first time I followed the recipe as written and found it had too much vanilla and not enough honey flavor. The honey from my bees isn't that dark, rather a beautiful golden color. So, the second version was adjusted to use just one vanilla bean and just over 1/2 c of honey. Fantastic! My advice is to adjust the recipe based on the strength of your honey.

  • Ambassade D'Auvergne's lentil salad with walnut oil

    • cespitler on November 03, 2012

      I love this dish. It's just what I like about lentils--earthy and hearty. The vinegar adds a great contrast to the depth of the lentils. I've made a vegetarian version of this dish and it holds up well.

Publishers Text

Celebrated author of Foodlovers' Guide to Paris and French food authority Patricia Wells explores the mouth-watering food of Paris in this unique collection of recipes, resources, and tips.

One of the world's most respected and trusted authorities on French cooking, Patricia Wells now offers a fascinating culinary exploration of the city she calls home--Paris. Both a recipe book and a culinary guide, this volume covers all facets of the city's dynamic food scene, from the three-star cuisine of Joel Robuchon to traditional bistro favorites, as well as prized dishes of butchers, cheese-makers, and market vendors.

Each recipe has been carefully adapted for the home kitchen, resulting in dishes that are at once simple, authentic, and deeply flavorful. A joy for the home cook, the traveler, and the armchair Francophile.
