Description
A beautiful new edition of the beloved cookbook capturing the spirit of Julia Child's debut television series.
The French Chef Cookbook is a comprehensive collection of more than 300 classic French recipes. The series, The French Chef, which made her a star, is now featured as the centrepiece of the television series Julia.
By 1963, Julia Child had already achieved widespread recognition as the bestselling author of Mastering the Art of French Cooking. However, it wasn't until her television debut with The French Chef that she became the superstar we know and love today. Over the course of ten seasons, millions of Americans learned not only how to cook but also how to embrace food. The series completely changed the way we eat and earned Julia a Peabody Award in 1965 and an Emmy Award in 1966.
From that success came The French Chef Cookbook, Julia's first solo cookbook, written with all the wit, wisdom, and joie de vivre for which she is rightly remembered. Organized by episode—"Dinner in a Pot," "Caramel Desserts," "Beef Gets Stewed Two Ways"—the book, like the television show on which it is based, is a complete French culinary education. It is packed with more than 300 delectable recipes, including timeless classics like Cassoulet, Vichyssoise, Coq au Vin, Croissants, and Chocolate Mousse.
The definitive companion to Julia's groundbreaking television series, The French Chef Cookbook is now available in a beautiful new edition, sixty years after Julia first took to the airwaves.
