The Provence Cookbook (Patricia Wells)

From Patricia Wells, the author of seven French cookbooks and a champion of simple French cooking, comes a celebration of the foods of Provence.

Provence is a delight for culinary adventurers, a region known for its vineyards and markets. Patricia Wells—author of The Paris Cookbook and Bistro Cooking—now calls Provence home, and The Provence Cookbook is an intimate guide to the culinary pleasures of the region.

With more than 200 recipes and 75 duotone photographs, it evokes the atmosphere, tastes, and sights of this surpassingly lush, bountiful area. Also included are a guide to local markets, profiles of farmers and vendors, wine pairings and visits to Provence’s lively vineyards, and recommendations for food shops and purveyors as well as restaurants, potters, and other local artisans.
