Barefoot in Paris – Ina Garten
Hearty boeuf Bourguignon served in deep bowls over a garlic-rubbed slice of baguette toast; decadently rich croquet monsieur, eggy and oozing with cheese; gossamer creme brulee, its sweetness offset by a brittle burnt-sugar topping. Whether shared in a cosy French bistro or in your own home, the romance and enduring appeal of French country cooking is irrefutable. Here is the book that helps you bring that spirit, those evocative dishes, into your own home. Ina Garten is one of America's most loved culinary icons and the author of five previous bestselling cookery books. Her Barefoot Contessa cookery programmes are screened each day on UK TVFood. Ina writes a column on entertaining for America's Home Beautiful magazine and lives in East Hampton with her husband Jeffrey. |
