| Synopsis: |
"Chez Jacques" is a visual autobiography of one of America's most beloved cooking teachers, cookbook authors, and television personalities. Here, Jacques Pepin presents 100 of his favorite recipes culled from a lifetime of cooking professionally. The book highlights the food rituals that have shaped Pepin's life, from picking the first dandelion greens for a spring salad to mushrooming in the woods in summer. This storytelling format allows Pepin to present the recipes in a narrative way. The recipes follow the organisation of the simple meals Pepin enjoys at home. From the special truffle and pistachio sausage to a variation on the elegant lobster souffle he first made while working at the Plaza Athenee in Paris as a young man. Scattered throughout are fascinating essays in which Pepin shares his thoughts on various aspects of food history and cooking. With more than 200 stunning photographs, the book is a sentimental journey, a treasury of wonderful recipes and a gorgeous gift for food lovers. |
