Synopsis "The French Chef Cookbook "

A beautiful new edition of the beloved cookbook capturing the spirit of Julia Child's debut TV show, which made her a star and is now featured as the centerpiece of Max's Julia. The French Chef Cookbook is a comprehensive (Aïoli to Velouté, Bouillabaisse to Ratatouille) collection of more than 300 classic French recipes. By 1963, Julia Child had already achieved widespread recognition as the bestselling author of Mastering the Art of French Cooking, but it wasn't until her television debut with The French Chef that she became the superstar we know and love today. Over the course of ten seasons, millions of Americans learned not only how to cook, but how to embrace food. The series completely changing the way that we eat today, and it earned Julia a Peabody Award in 1965 and an Emmy Award in 1966. From that success came The French Chef Cookbook, Julia's first solo cookbook, written with all the wit, wisdom, and joie de vivre for which she is rightly remembered. Organized by episode--"Dinner in a Pot," "Caramel Desserts," "Beef Gets Stewed Two Ways"--the book, like the television show on which it is based, is a complete French culinary education, packed with more than 300 delectable recipes--including timeless classics like Cassoulet, Vichyssoise, Coq au Vin, Croissants, and Chocolate Mousse. The definitive companion to Julia's groundbreaking television series, The French Chef Cookbook is now available in a beautiful new edition, sixty years after Julia first took to the airwaves.

(California 1912 - 2004) She graduated from Smith College and during World War II worked for the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) in Ceylon and China, where she met Paul Child whom she married and moved to Paris with. After studying at Le Cordon Bleu and having worked in the kitchens of distinguished French chefs, in 1951 Julia Child opened her own cooking school, L'École des Trois Gourmandes, with Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle. Together, they wrote the first volume of Mastering the Art of French Cooking (1961). In 1963, Boston WGBH premiered the television program The French Chef, which made Julia Child a national star and with which she won the Peabody Award in 1965 and an Emmy in 1966. Julia Child was decorated with the French government's Legion of Honor and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2003.
