Synopsis

This is not an ordinary cookbook. Most cookbooks tell you to follow a recipe and you’ll create good food. They do not teach you how to cook; they teach you how to follow instructions. This cookbook is a workbook that teaches you how to cook, explaining the interplay between techniques, flavors, and how to combine them into a delicious dish, or how to adjust a recipe into something that better suits your family’s tastes.

Starting with the five basic flavors and understanding how they impact your food, to the power of sauces including the classic mother and daughter sauces; to the significance of the different cooking methods and what the essential tools are; to an overview of the cook’s larder, this book will make you a cook, not a recipe follower.

Are there times you wish you could cook with the ingredients you already have? The answer is you can, but you do need to learn certain techniques and basics so you have the knowhow you need to create quick and easy foods and taste combinations without fear of getting overwhelmed.

Imagine the freedom you’ll feel when you enter the kitchen knowing you can improvise with ingredients and flavors to create something that is not only healthy and really good, it’s fantastique! That’s when cooking is really fun!

The workbook gives you space to make notes of your successes, what didn’t work as well as what you wanted and what you may want to change the next time you make it. This process puts you in charge and gives you confidence so when your family and friends say, “Please make it, it’s my favorite!” you’ll know how.

Le Kitchen Cookbook has more than 100 recipes ranging from 24-hour Lamb (sure to become a favorite) to veal Moppet (tender veal in a cream sauce) to a delicious berry cobbler. This book will quickly become your go-to reference and a family treasure to be passed down to the next generation.

Adeline Olmer, a native of France, offers a collection of stories about the pleasure of food along with her recipes from a French perspective, explaining techniques, essential skills, and why they work. To have ease and fun cooking, you’ll want to develop those skills.

Adeline writes a weekly blog on French-Secrets.com about food and lifestyle with a French perspective.
