Synopsis:
When one thinks of great food, one invariably thinks of France. After all, this is the birthplace of some of the world's greatest chefs, such as Auguste D'Escoffier, and a major influence on many others, such as Julia Child. THE FOOD OF FRANCE is the second in a series of richly photographed cookbooks that examines the food of different countries. Lush images and information on France and its internationally renowned gastronomic culture make this book much more than a cookbook. Pictorial essays presented in gatefold spreads highlight food journeys that share the traditions behind France's best-known exports, including cheese and pastries. A glossary of French food and cooking terms will help transform a family meal into haute cuisine.
The Food of France gives you a real taste of a country that has made food one of the great joys of everyday life. It creates a culinary journey from the restaurants of Lyon to the kitchens of Provence, through the vineyards of Bordeaux to the bakers of Paris, to discover the food that defines today's French cooking: the freshest seafood with herb aioli, winter salt pork with lentils and slow-cooking cassoulet, warm brioche and petits pots de creme. 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 recipes, special sections explore the essence of French food and drink. Varieties of cheeses, charcuterie, seafood, patisserie, and breads have been photographed to make identification easy. Included are sections on such special topics as: Properly ripening a Camembert The baguette French chocolate Enjoying the best of France's wines and champagnes. This book feature more than 100 delicious recipes that highlight the country culinary treasures. With instructive color photographs throughout, each recipe helps readers choose and identify produce, from vegetables and flavorings to street snacks, sweets, and colorful and exotic fruits. Feature sections explore the essence of the food and cooking techniques.
