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

No markings, Fine, as New in unclipped Fine dust jacket with the red border to the front panel Patterned boards, xxxii, 684pp, xxxii index. B&W instructional drawings in text. This is the classic which introduced North Americans to the art and technique of French cooking. The recipes are clearly arranged with a master recipe introducing the technique and then recipe variations. This is the first volume, revised in Sept of 1983. David Rosengarten ( in TASTE) says that this book was for him, "the most important book" as "it was a book to work through systematically, not a book to surf...If one does work through this book page by page...one has taken the equivalent of a cooking course". A heavy book. (3.0 JM LVR 201/b5.
