This classic collection of heritage recipes represents the best of French home cooking as passed down through generations of food-loving families. Inspired by their mother, who passed on the secrets of her native Normandy cuisine, the book has been put together by Michel and Albert Roux, founders of The Waterside Inn and Le Gavroche.
A highly personal choice of French regional cooking from two popular French chefs who are true authorities on French cuisine. Divided into 12 regional chapters, each introduction gives an overview of the area and its culinary traditions. There are 150 recipes in total, each as diverse and interesting as the regions from which they came.
