Product Description

Author Camille Le Foll invites readers back to her grandmother’s kitchen to learn all about the wonders of blinis and crepes. She explains the differences between the two (and between both of these and pancakes) and then offers 30 recipes that home cooks will rush to try out. The choices range from savory to sweet, from Buckwheat Blinis with Smoked Haddock to Apple Crepes caramelized with butter, from zucchini pancakes to the most fabulous flaming crepes Suzette ever. It’s all irresistible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Tasty !, January 6, 2007

By	KDMask (Rochester, Planet Fab, NY) - See all my reviews

I bought this as a gift and I have to say it's one of the more beautiful cooking books I've gotten recently. Delicious looking photos and step by step instructions are included for every mouth watering recipe. I especially like the fact that the differences between crepes, pancakes and blinis are discussed. Both savory and sweet recipies are included. Easy to follow instructions for novices and more advanced cooks alike.

A well written, nicely illustrated and, more importantly, the content is brief and to the point, explaining all we need to know about crepes and blinis. The recipes included are, in my opinion, the best and most practical of the thousands of recipes available. Highly recommended.
