The French Kitchen Cookbook

 

We're very pleased to be able to offer 10 free copies of a new cookbook by one of the legends of the culinary field, Patricia Wells. Her new book,  French Kitchen Cookbook: Recipes and Lessons From Paris and Provence, has its basis in her famous cooking school in Provence.  We had a chance to discuss her passion for food and delight in teaching students - you can read her insightful comments here. 

 

 

 

 

In her discussion, she shares her most important rules for students. To win one of the cookbooks, just post a comment below answering the question posed in her first lesson, How to Begin:

"I tell them to sit down and make a list of the ten things they most love to eat. It may be French fries or a lemon tart. A perfect puff pastry or chocolate cake. I suggest the list be varied (not all desserts, please). Then, as though you are a pianist learning to play a piece of music, you cook, cook, cook!--practice that first recipe until you feel you have mastered it, or at least have made it taste as good as you think you can at this point. Then move on to the second recipe on the list, and so on. By the time you have reached the tenth recipe, you will have a basic repertoire. Then, of course, make another list of ten and continue the process."

So we'll pose the same question - though you don't have to list 10 items: What is the one thing you most love to eat? 

Additional rules are:

  • Please make certain you have signed in to the EYB website (you don't have to be a paid member). This ensures that we have your email address and can get in contact with you. 
  • The giveaway will expire in 4 weeks on November 19, 2013.
