SUMMARY

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER For more than 60 years, Mastering the Art of French Cooking has been the definitive cookbook on French cuisine for American readers. It deserves a place of honor in every kitchen. “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 “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
