About the authors

Simone Beck

Simone Beck spent her girlhood in Normandy, and started cooking early in life. Originally a student of bookbinding, her interest in cooking crystallized under the tutelage of private chefs and of Henri Pellaprat at the Cordon Bleu. She lived most of her life in Paris and Provence but became well known in America through Mastering the Art of French Cooking and two books published under her own name.

As close to a divine text as you can get

Matthew Fort, Guardian

It will gladden the heart of all good cooks ... An alchemist's stone which enables any cook to turn base ingredients to gold
