Dishes unique to the 12 regions of provincial France such as Normandy, Provence and Languedoc are presented in this book, which adapts the recipes so that they can be reproduced authentically outside France. The traditional specialities of each region - first courses, main dishes, desserts, breads and cakes - are described and illustrated in colour. Anne Willan is the co-founder of La Varenne, one of Paris" most authoritative cookery schools.
