Around My French Table: More Than 300 Recipes from My Home to Yours

When Julia Child told Dorie Greenspan, "You write recipes just the way I do," she paid her the ultimate compliment. Julia's praise was echoed by the *New York Times* and the *Los Angeles Times,* which referred to Dorie's "wonderfully encouraging voice" and "the sense of a real person who is there to help should you stumble."

Now in a big, personal, and personable book, Dorie captures all the excitement of French home cooking, sharing disarmingly simple dishes she has gathered over years of living in France.

*Around My French Table* includes many superb renditions of the great classics: a glorious cheese-domed onion soup, a spoon-tender beef daube, and the "top-secret" chocolate mousse recipe that every good Parisian cook knows-but won't reveal.

Hundreds of other recipes are remarkably easy: a cheese and olive quick bread, a three-star chef's Basque potato tortilla made with a surprise ingredient (potato chips), and an utterly satisfying roast chicken for "lazy people."

Packed with lively stories, memories, and insider tips on French culinary customs, *Around My French Table* will make cooks fall in love with France all over again, or for the first time.
