Explore the food of France's borderlands with acclaimed chef Alex
Jackson in his second cookbook Frontières. This is a book about
the cooking of France’s borderlands: from the geographical to the
historical, linguistic and metaphorical. In it, Alex Jackson sets
out to investigate the cooking of these borderland areas with a
view to exploring the similarities between the food on either side
of the borders. From the Riviera, where the border has shifted many
times but the cooking remains of a delicious whole, to the Occitan
valleys of the Italian Alps, the Franco-German cooking of Alsace,
and Marseille, one of the most important ports of the
Mediterranean, and its historic (and current) links with North
Africa. Alex explores how French cuisine has been influenced
through history and that many of these dishes are part of a shared
tradition of western European and Mediterranean cookery. With over
80 mouth-watering recipes and fascinating introductions to each
region, Frontières will take you on a delicious gastronomic
journey through France's varied borderlands, adding many
interesting dishes to your repertoire along the way.
