Product Description
Book Description
Carol Colbert grew up in France, where she learned to cook from her mother, who had learned to cook from her mother. Their treasured recipes and timesaving secrets, simplified and refined over busy generations, are presented in this succinct introduction to preparing delicious French food. This is the hearty and wholesome French cooking found in bistros and homes across France, dishes such as Salad Nicoise, Cream of Asparagus Soup, Ham and Cheese Quiche, Beef Burgundy, Filets Mignon with Shallots and Red Wine Sauce, and Gratineed Scalloped Potatoes. With Colbert's time-tested techniques, even formerly intimidating dishes such as Cheese Souffl and Creme Brulee are easily conquered without stress or extravagant means. She also includes foolproof recipes for essential French sauces, from hollandaise sauce to irresistible Chantilly dessert sauce. With Easy French Cooking in hand, American cooks of any expertise - or none - can look forward to many a satisfying meal a la francaise. And afterward? A dessert of Pears with Ice Cream and Chocolate Sauce, of course.

An excellent addition to any French Cuisine cookbook shelf.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy French Cooking (Paperback)
Carol Colbert's Easy French Cooking holds no color photos but needs little embellishment. Over seventy recipes from the author's own country have been simplified from their original versions, some with substituted ingredients, and provide easy dishes in 3-6 steps.
