Book Description
Los Angeles Times, October 15, 2003
Altogether, it's a terrific, definitive collection of the most classic French baked goods, charmingly written, and gorgeously photographed...
Product Description:
How can one experience the wonderful
freshly baked products of a French bakery without visiting France? Simply by following the instructions and guidance of Pascal Rigo, offered here in more than 70 recipes, many illustrated with color photographs. He, along with his crew of bakers and
pastry chefs, has poured into this book the secrets of ancient family recipes, the knowledge of experienced professional cooks, and the traditions and techniques of various French regions. The result is chewy, dark, and rich breads like Pain au Levain;
light crisp ones like Pain de and#201;pi; buttery croissants to dip into cafe au lait; savory Quiche Lorraine and sweet fruit tarts; as well as tempting desserts including pound cake, poached pears, and Pots de Creme.
