Summary:
"When Elizabeth Bard, a New Yorker raised on Twizzlers and instant mac and cheese, fell for a handsome Frenchman and moved to Paris, she discovered a whole new world of culinary delights. First in Paris, then in a tiny village in Provence, Elizabeth explored the markets, incorporating new ingredients and rituals into her everyday meals and routines. After 15 years of cooking in her own
French
kitchen, making
French
friends - and observing her slim and elegant
French
mother-in-law - Elizabeth has gathered a treasure trove of information that has radically changed her own
eating
habits for the better. She realized that what most Americans call "dieting" - smaller portions, no snacking, a preference for seasonal fruits and vegetables, and limited sugar - the
French
simply call "
eating
." And they do it with pleasure, gusto, and flair. With wit, sound advice, and easy-to-follow recipes, Bard lets her readers in on a range of delightful and useful
French
secrets
to
eating
and living well, including hunger as the new foreplay, the top five essential
French
cooking tools and 15 minute meals popular throughout France, why
French
kids eat veggies, and how to get yours to eat them, too. Whether you're ready for a complete kitchen transformation or simply looking for
dinner
party inspiration,
Dinner
Chez
Moi
is a fun, practical, and charming how-to guide that will add a dash of joie de vivre to your kitchen and your life! Elizabeth Baird is the author of the culinary memoirs Lunch in Paris and Picnic in Provence. Visit her website at elizabethbaird.com"--Provided by publisher.
