The perfect gift for any follower of Julia Child and lover of French cuisine, this boxed set includes the complete Mastering the Art of French Cooking and its sequel. Volume One features 524 classic recipes, emphasizing that “anyone can cook in the French manner anywhere” with proper guidance. It serves both seasoned cooks and beginners eager to recreate the savory delights of traditional French cooking, from iconic dishes to simple spring-green peas. With over one hundred instructive illustrations, the techniques learned can be applied to other French cookbooks, enhancing their usability. Compiled from the expertise of renowned Cordon Bleu chefs, this volume remains a staple in American kitchens. Volume Two offers 257 additional recipes, showcasing the continued exploration by Julia Child and Simone Beck of classic dishes and regional specialties in France.
