Book Description
This edition is the official culinary guide of Auguste Escoffier. At the origin of the simplification of menus and light cuisine, there is a man: Auguste Escoffier (1846-1935). First cook, appointed officer of the Legion of Honor for having been ambassador of French gastronomy throughout the world, he is the precursor of modern cuisine, and all today's chefs recognize what they owe to his artwork. The Culinary Guide remains the reference work for all cooks, whether they are novices or experienced, but it is also an incomparable source of tasty discoveries for the amateur. A practical reminder, it includes more than 5,000 recipes, from sauces to appetizers, desserts to pâtés and terrines, roasts to soups, not to mention desserts, compotes, jams and even sandwiches. It allows everyone to easily cook a multitude of dishes. Published here in its integral version, what was one of the great bestsellers of the 20th century reveals the intimate conviction of this master of gastronomy: cooking is and will never cease to be an art.
