  • robm on September 07, 2011

    For anyone who loves French cuisine, but has been intimidated by seemingly complicated recipes and techniques, this is the book for you! These are simple, straightforward, unfussy recipes for everyday French home cooking. The book avoids expensive, de luxe ingredients like caviar, foie gras and truffles that would be appropriate for haute cuisine. This is cuisine menagere, designed for busy French cooks who also have jobs and other demands on their time, yet who want to produce classic French comfort foods. You'll find recipes for favorites like boeuf bourgignon, potato gratins, coquilles St. Jacques, pâtés and terrines, soupe a l'oignon, etc. calling for short lists of ingredients and techniques most cooks already know. For a grand dinner party or other special occasion by all means hit the haute cuisine cookbooks, but for delicious everyday fare this book will more than fill the bill!
