Inspired by his gastronomic journey through the waterways of Southern France, Rick Stein’s French Odyssey is a delightful exploration of French culinary traditions. Rick’s gastro-tour took him along the Canal du Midi, from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, as he sampled the local delicacies. Among the recipes he’s gathered here are the classics—Pissaladière, Bouillabaisse, Cassoulet, Tarte Tatin—as well as new takes on traditional ingredients, including Rabbit with Prunes and Polenta, Seared Foie Gras on Sweet Corn Pancakes, and Prune and Almond Tart with Armagnac.

This review is from: Rick Stein's French Odyssey: Over 100 New Recipes Inspired by the Flavours of France (Hardcover)
Rick Stein has provided us with another wonderful book to drool over. Not only does this have "fancy" dishes but also some of the classic peasant dishes as well. I loved my copy so much that I got it for a Christmas present for a friend who loves cooking as much as I do.
