Synopsis

Christian Constant is one of the top chefs in France. At his luxurious contemporary Parisian bistro, Le Violon d'Ingres, recently awarded the coveted Michelin star, he prepares dishes that are refined and inventive, but still informed by the traditions and techniques of classic French cuisine. When he's not at the stoves at his restaurant, Constant loves cooking at home. His cuisine au quotidienne as he calls it - "everyday cooking" - focuses on fine products prepared in simple, savory ways. In his first cookbook to be published in the United States, Constant presents his personal repertoire of recipes for the home. Many of his inventive dishes are easy and quick to prepare, such as Cream of Pumpkin Soup with Croutons, Chives, and Diced Gruyere; Tomato Tart with Black Olives and Parmesan; Marinated Scallops with Lime and Dill; and Caramelized Rice Pudding Scented with Vanilla Bean. Everyday French Cooking also offers a handful of special occasion recipes, including Quick-Roasted Foie Gras with Caramelized Grapes and Roast Rack of Lamb with Spices, Figs, and Honey. The recipes are enhanced with charming full-color illustrations of their key ingredients.
