Summary
Celebrating the cuisine of rural France, a collection of simple, local-ingredient recipes is accompanied by lively essays and includes such fare as Hearty Pork and Vegetable Stew with Buckwheat Dumplings and Rubarb Tart from Louviers.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
As much a book of inspiration as a collection of over 250 uncommonly delicious recipes, French Farmhouse Cookbook captures the rustic and richly flavored farmhouse cooking that is the basis of French cuisine and a perennial inspiration of French chefs. The author visited and lived among farmers, cheesemakers, ranchers, and vintners from the Pyrénnées to Alsace-Lorraine, from Normandy to Provence. The result is a stunning portrait in recipes, lively essays, and a wealth of astucesótips passed down through generations of cooks. Here are dishes prepared by lifelong cooks--not chefs--intended to satisfy, not impress.

"Susan Loomis's new book is that rare thing: a cookbook that expresses accurately the milieu of its recipes. It is a timely and beautiful reminder that we have to connect back to the land in order to recover a sustainable future."--Alice Waters, author of Chez Panisse Vegetables.

Main selection of the Book of the Month Club's Good Cook Club. 55,000 copies in print.
