French Countryside Cooking: Inspirational dishes from the forests, fields and shores of France

by Daniel Galmiche

Overview

A Michelin-starred chef offers a fresh, sustainable approach to French country cooking—revealing how simple, local ingredients can create sophisticated dishes and reduce food waste.

Daniel Galmiche—a Michelin-starred chef and author of the French Brasserie Cookbook—reveals how to make authentic French dishes using the ingredients found in the rural parts of the country—from orchard to meadow, river to seashore—in sustainable and stunningly inventive ways.

French cooking centers around one maxim: start with quality ingredients, and the resulting flavor and freshness will shine. Daniel shows how to showcase even the humblest of ingredients and offers tips on how to source them sustainably and seasonally: Spice a peach to make a mouth-watering accompaniment to duck. Use a chicken carcass to create a beautifully clear and nourishing broth. Home-smoke cod fillets with fennel-infused smoke and serve with a warm bean salad.
 
With recipes organized by ingredient origin and tips on how to master chef-level techniques without fancy equipment, this beautiful cookbook will help you whip up authentic French cuisine—and reduce food waste—with simplicity.
