Book Cooking with the 60 minute Gourmet

Download or read book Cooking with the 60 minute Gourmet written by Pierre Franey and published by Crown. This book was released on 1999 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three hundred newly discovered recipes drawn from Pierre Franey's famed "60-Minute Gourmet" columns in The New York Times The master chef's legions of fans will be delighted to learn of such surprising culinary good fortune. Prepared with Pierre Franey's characteristic flair and ebullience, this new collection offers three hundred recipes that appeared in The New York Times but were never before published in a cookbook. These recipes are as delicious as those in his two earlier 60-Minute Gourmet collections and combine everything that was great about Pierre Franey's cooking: fresh, flavorful, low-fat ingredients, ease of preparation, and the commandment "Don't spend all evening in the kitchen!" Following a successful career as a restaurant chef, Pierre Franey became a food writer for The New York Times in 1975, when he accepted the challenge to write a regular column featuring recipes that would take less than one hour to prepare. Though he was initially concerned that the time limit might detract from the quality of the dishes, he quickly recalled the delicious foods prepared in his childhood home in France, which often took very little time to cook. Over the two decades that his column appeared, he developed thousands of dishes that can--indeed, must--be made in only minutes to bring them to a state of absolute perfection. Cooking with the 60-Minute Gourmet is a dazzling collection of great recipes. The book opens with appetizers, salads, and soups, then moves into meats, poultry, seafood, pasta, and, finally, desserts. Among the many delectable recipes are Green Bean and Red Pepper Salad, Lobster and Wild Rice Salad, Double Veal Chops with Braised Spring Vegetables, Sirloin Steak with Crushed Peppercorns, Roasted Baby Chickens with Spicy Mango Barbecue Sauce, Shrimp with Snow Peas and Tomatoes, Fettuccine with Goat Cheese and Asparagus, Broiled Fennel and Zucchini with Parmesan Cheese, Summer Fruit Salad, and Poached Pears in Red Wine and Cassis. A special tribute to Pierre Franey is offered in a fond Foreword by his lifelong friend the master chef Jacques Pépin. The recipes have been collected and updated by Bryan Miller, a longtime collaborator of Franey's, with help from Claudia Franey Jensen, one of père Franey's daughters, who has also contributed an Introduction. As a step-by-step guide and an inspiration for better eating, this great cookbook will soon be considered a must in every home cook's library.

Book Pierre Franey s Cooking in France

Download or read book Pierre Franey s Cooking in France written by Pierre Franey and published by Alfred A. Knopf. This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this companion book to Pierre Franey's new Public Television series, he revisits his native land to bring to the American home cook some of the classic regional specialties of France -- and to search out some of the latest and most brilliant culinary refinements. Franey reports on each of France's major gastronomic areas. He includes his own recipes as well as specialties confided to him in grand restaurants, bistros, and out-of-the-way villages: such mouth-watering delights as cassoulet and confit from Languedoc, hearty choucroute from Alsace, ratatouille from Provence, coquilles Saint-Jacques from Normandy. He revels in foie gras in Gascony and visits the luxuriant grazing land of Charolles that produces the famous charollais beef. We watch the harvesting of truffles in the Perigord, discover the secrets of the rich sauces of Burgundy, and relish the culinary wonders of Lyon. We discover the Cognac country of Charente, the vineyards of Bordeaux, and the precious caves of Champagne. The France we visit here is a land flourishing with cooks of every category, from the practitioners of traditional peasant cuisine to the most innovative chefs at work today. Franey meets -- and presents recipes from -- the legendary Pierre Troisgros and Alain Ducasse, as well as Pierre Gagnaire, whose restaurant in St. Etienne recently received a coveted Michelin third star. We share the secrets of Jean-Marie Miquel, whose restaurant in the town of Najac is one of France's newly discovered treasures, and of Marceline Jacomet, a fabulous cook in a rustic corner of Provence, who prepares duck as you've never tasted it. In Paris we learn about the explosion of new bistro cooking from great chefslike Joel Robuchon and Michel Rostang, whose hearty stews, pates, and roasts are taking on new and deserved cachet. In this book, the American cook (and reader) gains a greater appreciation of the French ardor for produce -- cheese, wine, meat, fish, herbs, vegetables, everything that makes eating in France the great joy it is today -- which underlines the principle, too often paid only lip service, that at the heart of great cooking is the use of the best possible ingredients, fresh as can be and with a minimum of processing. Here we have the very best of French cooking from one of America's great chefs.

Book Mastering the Art of French Cooking  Volume 1

Download or read book Mastering the Art of French Cooking Volume 1 written by Julia Child and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 857 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The definitive cookbook on French cuisine for American readers: "What a cookbook should be: packed with sumptuous recipes, detailed instructions, and precise line drawings. Some of the instructions look daunting, but as Child herself says in the introduction, 'If you can read, you can cook.'" —Entertainment Weekly “I only wish that I had written it myself.” —James Beard Featuring 524 delicious recipes and over 100 instructive illustrations to guide readers every step of the way, Mastering the Art of French Cooking offers something for everyone, from seasoned experts to beginners who love good food and long to reproduce the savory delights of French cuisine. Julia Child, Simone Beck, and Louisette Bertholle break down the classic foods of France into a logical sequence of themes and variations rather than presenting an endless and diffuse catalogue of dishes—from historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas. Throughout, the focus is on key recipes that form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves to an infinite number of elaborations—bound to increase anyone’s culinary repertoire. “Julia has slowly but surely altered our way of thinking about food. She has taken the fear out of the term ‘haute cuisine.’ She has increased gastronomic awareness a thousandfold by stressing the importance of good foundation and technique, and she has elevated our consciousness to the refined pleasures of dining." —Thomas Keller, The French Laundry

Mencken on the hot dog; M. F. K. Fisher in praise of the oyster; Ralph Ellison on the irresistible appeal of baked yam; William Styron on Southern fried chicken. American writers abroad, like A. J. Liebling, Waverly Root, and Craig Claiborne, describe the revelations they found in foreign restaurants; travellers to America, including the legendary French gourmet J. A. Brillat-Savarin, discover such native delicacies as turkey, Virginia barbecue, and pumpkin pie. Great chefs and noted critics discuss their culinary philosophies and offer advice on the finer points of technique; home cooks recount disasters and triumphs. A host of eminent American writers, from Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Walt Whitman to Thomas Wolfe, Willa Cather, and Langston Hughes, add their distinctive viewpoints to the mix. American Food Writing celebrates the astonishing variety of American foodways, with accounts from almost every corner of the country and a host of ethnic traditions: Dutch, Cuban, French, Italian, Jewish, Chinese, Irish, Indian, Scandinavian, Native American, African, English, Japanese, and Mexican. A surprising range of subjects and perspectives emerge, as writers address such topics as fast food, hunger, dieting, and the relationship between food and sex. James Villas offers a behind-the-scenes look at gourmet dining through a waiter’s eyes; Anthony Bourdain recalls his days at the Culinary Institute of America; Julia Child remembers the humble beginnings of her much-loved television series; Nora Ephron chronicles internecine warfare among members of the “food establishment”; Michael Pollan explores what the label “organic” really means. Throughout the anthology are more than fifty classic recipes, selected after extensive research from cookbooks both vintage and modern, and certain to instruct, delight, and inspire home chefs.
