Description
Made in France is a celebration of authentic French cooking, seasonal ingredients and the food memories that bring people together.
From the seaside towns of south-west France to the bistros of Paris and the flavours of the French Caribbean, Chantal André’s debut cookbook brings together traditional French recipes inspired by a lifetime spent across France.
Moving through the seasons, Chantal shares classic French dishes alongside lesser-known regional recipes, showing how simple and rewarding French cuisine can be at home. Using ingredients at their best, each chapter captures a different time of year and a different side of French food, from comforting family favourites to dishes made for sharing.
Many of the recipes have their roots in Chantal’s childhood, inspired by family cooking, handwritten notes and the French tradition of repas de famille – gathering around the table with the people you love.
Six years in the making, Made in France is presented bilingually for French- and English-speaking readers and offers an accessible introduction to authentic French home cooking. Perfect for lovers of French food, newcomers to French cuisine and anyone wanting to recreate memories of time spent in France, it is a warm and personal journey through the country’s culinary culture, one season and one shared table at a time.
