Book Description

Little Cookbook Library February 1, 1996
With such traditional and contemporary dishes as Tarte Tatin, Croissants, Ratatouille and Salade Nicoise, French cuisine is rightly regarded as one of the richest in the world, and these recipes add up to a repertoire that most would be happy to eat day after day. Once easily available in any number of modest restaurants, today they are more often found in the home; all the more reason, then, to cook them yourself!

5.0 out of 5 stars French Cooking Made Easy, June 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Little French Cookbook (Hardcover)
A Little French Cookbook is excellent for those who are overwhelmed by the thought of French cooking.

The recipes are classics, and are easy to follow. For example, the croque-monsieur is an excellent choice for lunch or a quick supper. Tarte Tatin is delicious (this is like an upside down apple pie); we tried this out after tasting in a restaurant while on vacation in Montreal. Another favorite in our house (which includes a French husband) is the salade verte which gives the traditional vinaigrette recipe.

The recipes are prefaced by brief 'historical' descriptions which tell of the recipes' origin.

This review is from: Little French Cookbook (Hardcover)
I love the recipes in this book which are simple, and the length does not overwhelm. I especially love looking at the pictures which evoke France.
