Publishers Text

Behind the grandeur of haute cuisine stands its less famous but equally delectable foundation: the delicious and varied styles of rural French home cooking. Many of the most renowned dishes got their start as recipes handed down from mother to daughter in the family kitchen. And, even today, the tradition of carefully and lovingly prepared meals continues. Take an insider's view of the state of the ordinary country kitchen--from the rich simplicity of Norman food to the abundance of southern Provence. This unique record of 200 authentic and original recipes is the result of a year spent touring the country and sharing the best each home chef had to offer. Now you yourself can take pleasure in delicacies such as Chicory Braised with Smoked Bacon and Port, Authentic Breton Pancakes (with apples and Calvados), a Truffle Omelet, and more. Stunning photographs and a multitude of sidebars make this a wonderful gastronomic voyage! 208 pages (all in color).
