Exclusive collection of nine private French recipes from a Michelin chef
◎ Editor's Recommendation
☆ Bistro cuisine, Michelin for the common people.
Yves Camdeborde, known as the "bistro cuisine" master, once worked in a two-Michelin-starred restaurant. He has always advocated reducing intermediaries in food supply, giving producers' value due respect, and allowing more consumers to enjoy Michelin-level cuisine at affordable prices. This book includes nine of Yves's private recipes.
☆ A journey to discover the treasures of French countryside cuisine.
Why use dogs instead of pigs to find truffles? Where are the most difficult vineyards to cultivate in France? ... The authors spent two years visiting partners who have worked with Yves for over twenty years, traversing the most remote French countryside, to unveil the mystery of French cuisine and glimpse the world of diligent artisans behind the scenes and precious culinary treasures.
☆ A food documentary depicted in elegant watercolors.
Ferrandez's watercolor lines appear casual, yet they accurately capture the movements and spirit of people. The poetic and elegant color palette, just like the lives of the characters depicted in the book, is ordinary yet tranquil, with a strength and grace flowing in its serenity. The flowing imagery is like a documentary on paper.
◎ Content Introduction
Among them are shepherds, vegetable growers, wine farmers, butchers... They are all Yves Camdeborde's long-term suppliers, and they share with Yves their judgment on how to eat well and cook well. Accompanied by Yves Camdeborde, artist Jacques Ferrandez spent a year visiting Yves's favorite producers, presenting these encounters in image form: discovering truffle hunters, pike fishermen, and winegrowers across France. This is a beautiful tapestry woven with craftsmanship and hospitality.
