Pierre Franey's cooking in America
In this book, Pierre Franey celebrates American food--the rich lode of fresh produce and the cooking skill, ingenuity and lore that are among our national treasures--and provides us with 200 delectable recipes that are in themselves a celebration. Born in Burgundy and trained as a chef in the great French tradition, Franey has become a true champion of American cooking. We follow him across the country as he searches out local specialties and secrets, talking to all sorts of Americans, from crabbers in Maryland to citrus growers in Florida, from cattle ranchers in Nevada to strawberry and artichoke growers in California. He visits restaurants and their kitchens, from the elegant River Cafe in New York and the vibrant Tra Vigne in the Napa Valley of California to a rustic lechonera in San Juan, Puerto Rico-a pig roasting at the entrance-and the whimsical Cafe Spudnik in Moscow, Idaho....
