Riassunto

Rolling vineyards with world-famous names. A wave from the gardener tending her potager. Pan bagna in the village square for lunch, and the prospect of dinner at a three-star inn to get you through those last five uphill kilometers. Bicycling through France brings you into intimate contact with the land, the people, and the food-especially the food. It's an experience that Sarah Leah Chase, acclaimed cookbook author, gourmet food-shop owner, and, since college, bicycle tour guide for Butterfield & Robinson, celebrates in Pedaling Through Burgundy.

Illustrated in full color and peppered with anecdotes and travel writing, cooking tips and wine notes, the book is a personal cookbook with a select but dazzling collection of recipes. It evokes the famed land of big red wines with hearty food to match: a classic French Onion Soup Gratine, Boeuf Bourguignon with a twist-the meat is grilled- Venison Ragout with Whole cloves of Garlic and Dried Fruits, and desserts including Pinot Noir Gratine, Warm Chocolate Boules with Strawberry Beaujolais Sauce, and Colette's Lemon Tart.

Su questo libro

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

Rolling vineyards with world-famous names. Sleepy hamlets. Farmers in sky-blue overalls. Green pastures dotted with Charolais cattle. And a celebrated cuisine based on butter, cheese, and cream. Burgundy is the quintessential France, and PEDALING THROUGH BURGUNDY is a quintessential taste of France from one of our most acclaimed cookbook writers.

From Warm Potato and Sausage Salad Lyonnaise to French Onion Soup Gratinee, Sarah Leah Chase spectacularly recreates the best of Burgundy. Sarah's Boeuf Bourguignonne a Ma Facon is grilled instead of stewed for a delicious summer meal. White wine transforms Coq au Vin. Mushrooms are coated with escargot butter before grilling, Dijon mustard turns a potato gratin deliciously piquant, and there are no less than six variations on the fluffy gougeres always present at Burgundy wine tastings.

With more than 60 recipes in all (including Cassis Crisp and Colette's Lemon Tart), much ado about wine, and moments from the road, this enchanting memento is for every food lover who has bicycled through Burgundy and for every cook in love with the flavors of the French countryside.

Sarah Leah Chase is a caterer, cooking teacher, and author of the PEDALING THROUGH PROVENCE COOKBOOK, NANTUCKET OPEN-HOUSE COOKBOOK, and COLD-WEATHER COOKING. When not guiding bicycle tours through Europe, she teaches cooking, and writes and creates recipes at her home on Nantucket.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

The wonderful recipes, insights, and wine suggestions in this book will appeal to anyone who has traveled to beautiful, bountiful Burgundy, or dreamed about traveling there.

--JACQUES PEPIN, Author of The Art of Cooking
