Description

Note: This edition of The French Cookbook has been updated to include Metric equivalents.

French cuisine has long been recognized as among the finest in the world. Since the French consider cooking a creative art, they bring to it all the skill, time and patience they possess. This is the secret of true French cookery.

Typically French are the “marriage of wines and food” and the inimitable blending of seasonings and herbs. If you hesitate to use wine in cookery, remember: (1) A food cooked in wine doesn’t necessarily taste like wine; (2) The alcoholic content of wine tends to be lost in the air when heated.

Recipes in The French Cookbook are designed to bring French culinary art to the American kitchen.
