The food of France gives you a real taste of a country that has made food one of the great joys of everyday life. Join our culinary journey from the restaurants of Lyon to the kitchens of Provence, through the vineyards of Bordeaux to the bakers of Paris, and discover the food that defines today’s French cooking: the freshest seafood with herb aioli, winter salt pork with lentils and a slow-cooking cassoulet, warm brioche and petits pot de creme.
Each recipe is photographed right as it is made, and is accompanied by useful hints on methods and ingredients. Beautiful photographs shot in France show how to choose the best produce: from market-fresh vegetables to seafood, regional cheeses and charcuterie.
To partner the delicious recipes, special sections throughout the book explore the essence of French food and drink. There are sections on cheeses, charcuterie, seafood, patisserie and breads; as well as a guide to enjoying the best of France’s wines and champagnes.
