This beautiful book captures the essence of living well, the French way. Containing over 80 recipes, some dating back to the fourteenth century, as well as traditional tips ranging from how to clean copper to making the perfect eau de cologne, 'En Cuisine' takes you into the heart of every French home – the kitchen – and makes you feel welcome.
Anecdotes from the author's time in France are interspersed throughout the book, together with memorable quotes from famous gourmands and fascinating insights into various aspects of French culinary culture. For example, did you know that only women are allowed to harvest the premier fleur de sel (white salt), as men are not considered to be fastidious enough? Recipes, anecdotes and quotes are all complemented by the author's stunning original artworks.
Truly a book that appeals to all the senses, 'En Cuisine' belongs on the bookshelf of every Francophile or lover of good food.
