France has a culinary tradition that is among the most renowned in
the world - from the sun-drenched specialities of Provence, through
the lusty, full-bodied dishes of Burgundy at the country's heart,
to the classic seafoods found along the Atlantic coast. Each area
has its own atmosphere and distinctive cooking style, based on the
flavoursome provincial produce - pungent cheeses, aromatic herbs,
delicate butters and creams, fresh fish and shellfish plus an array
of game, poultry and meats of the highest quality. Influenced by
geography and tradition, these regional dishes combined with the
classic cuisine create a culinary heritage rich in variety and
character. This book provides a comprehensive collection of the
very best of France. There are recipes for every occasion and for
every level of expertise, including rustic regional specialities
such as Cassoulet and Moules Mariniere, extravagant classic dishes
such as Lobster Thermidor and Pheasant Breast with Apples, as well
as lighter, contemporary creations such as Grilled Goat's Cheese
Salad. Over 900 step-by-step photographs clearly illustrate the
recipe methods, ensuring perfect results, whether you are
attempting a hot souffle, cooking crepes for the first time, or
brushing up on your pastry skills. The informative introduction
gives a fascinating insight into the background of this most
revered of cuisines, while stunning photographs of every finished
dish are sure to inspire you to perfect familiar dishes and try out
new ones. The cooking techniques are clearly explained throughout
and there are useful cook's tips and a comprehensive glossary of
unfamiliar terms, so even if you are a beginner in the kitchen, you
can easily recreate the authentic flavours of France in your own
home.
