Gourmet's Basic French Cookbook
Author: Louis Diat
Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 688
Book Description
Even before his death a few years ago, Louis Diat of the Ritz had already become something of a gastronomic legend in the tradition of the great chefs who left behind them written records of their culinary achievements. He wrote his first book in 1941, and it was my privilege to be invited to work with him on this and on his later books, as well as on the articles he contributed to Gourmet Magazine over a twelve-year period, beginning in 1946. Gourmet's Basic French Cookbook, subtitled Techniques of French Cuisine, is the natural and fitting culmination of Monsieur Louis' lifelong career as a chef and teacher of chefs. Montmarault, the small Bourbonnais town where Louis Diat was born in 1885, lies very close to the vineyards that produce some of the finest wines in the world, and boasts as neighbors such famed centers of gastronomy as Dijon, Lyons, and Moulins. In this milieu, it was almost inevitable that every man should be a connoisseur of fine wines and fine food and every woman a good cook, and that every second young boy should aspire to become a great chef. The road to such culinary heights was not open to everyone. The boy had to have genuine talent, and he had to undergo an arduous apprenticeship at no small expense. The ambitious young Louis was fortunate; his father could afford to pay the fee for his two years' training as an apprentice at the Maison Calondre in Moulins. And that he did have genuine talent is a matter of record.

Chez Panisse Cooking
Author: Paul Bertolli
Publisher: Random House Incorporated
ISBN: 9780394569703
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
"Extraordinary," "poetic," and "inspired" are only a few words that have been used to describe the food at Chez Panisse. Since the first meal served there in 1971, Alice Waters's Berkeley, California, restaurant has revolutionized American cooking, earning its place among the truly great restaurants of the world. Renowned for the brilliant innovations of its ever-changing menu, Chez Panisse has also come to represent a culinary philosophy inspired by nature -- dedicated to the common interest of environment and consumer in the use of gloriously fresh organic ingredients. In Chez Panisse Cooking, chef Paul Bertolli -- one of the most talented chefs ever to work with Alice Waters -- presents the Chez Panisse kitchen's explorations and reexaminations of earlier triumphs. Expanding upon -- and sometimes simplifying -- the concepts that have made Chez Panisse legendary, Bertolli provides reflections, recipes, and menus that lead the cook to a critical and intuitive understanding of food itself, of its purest organic sources and most sublime uses. Perhaps best described by Richard Olney, "Paul Bertolli's cuisine is what 'health food' should be and never is: a celebration of purity. The food is imaginative but never complicated; it is art." Enhanced by Gail Skoff's breathtaking hand-colored photographs, Paul Bertolli's recipes remind us of the simple and passionate joys in cooking and of the inspiration to be drawn from each season's freshest foods: glistening local salmon creates a wildly colorful springtime carpaccio or is grilled later in the season with tomatoes and basil vinaigrette; autumn's fresh white truffles are sliced into an extraordinarily textured salad of pastel hueswith fennel, mushrooms, and Parmesan cheese; figs left on the tree until they grow heavy and sweet appear in a fall fruit salad with warm goat cheese and herb toast. Season by season, Chez Panisse Cooking will captivate the senses and imagination of the cook with such entrancing recipes as Sugar Snap Peas with Brown Butter and Sage; Buckwheat Cakes with Smoked Salmon, Creme Fraiche, and Capers; Grilled Fish Wrapped in Fig Leaves with Red Wine Sauce; Lamb Salad with Garden Lettuces, Straw Potatoes, and Garlic Sauce; Marinated Veal Chops Grilled over an Oak Fire; or Seckel Pears Poached in Red Wine with Burnt Caramel. Here, some of the restaurant's most remarkable recent menus for special occasions are recreated, from a White Truffle Dinner to the Chez Panisse Tenth Annual Garlic Festival, to a supper for poet Vikram Seth that began. with "The Season's song, a summer ballad/Tomatoes, basil, flowers, beans/In unison dance, Lobster Salad..." Many of these recipes reflect Paul Bertolli's love of northern Italian food; for other dishes, the inspiration is French; in all, there is a keen awareness of the abundance of uncompromisingly pure, seasonal ingredients to be found in America. Above all, the Chez Panisse recipes are meant to inspire the cook to create his or her own version; to awaken the senses to the nuances of taste, texture, and color in cooking; to "discover the ecstatic moments when the intuition, skill, and accumulated experience of the cook merge with the taste and composition of the food." Since its original publication in 1988, this classic cookbook has proved to be indispensable to the shelf of every serious cook and every serious cookbook reader. "From the TradePaperback edition.
