Gabriel Gaté

A Taste of France takes the reader on a gastronomic tour of regional France, introducing the classic recipes from each region. Compiled by Gabriel Gate, this book is a must-have for lovers of French cuisine. This beautiful cookbook is illustrated by Antonia Pesanti, who has spent much time travelling around France. Antonia interprets French life through her drawings, from the pretty patisserie windows to the charcuteries and street markets.

A collection of over 200 regional French recipes, this book celebrates the diverse gastronomy of France. This is real food: delicious recipes that celebrate the beauty of cooking what is ripe and in season. While the appeal of this collection rests firmly on its recipes, the photographs of France transport the reader to this idyllic world where Gabriel Gaté is the perfect host. Enjoy with him country-style pâtés and terrines; tians and gratins; crepes and mousses; Fish Stews from the Languedoc, Normandy and Provence; fricassees and casseroles like cassoulet, coq au vin and poule au pot; roasts and tournedos; and brioche, gateaux, soufflés and tarts from every region of France. This cookbook brings to life the seasonal dishes that bring the warmth of rural France into your home.
