In a French KitchenEven before Susan Herrmann Loomis wrote her now-classic memoir, On Rue Tatin, American readers have been compelled by books about the French's ease with cooking. With In a French Kitchen, Loomis--an expat who long ago traded her American grocery store for a bustling French farmer's market--demystifies in lively prose the seemingly effortless je ne sais quoi behind a simple French meal.

Loomis graciously provided us with a substantial excerpt from the book, and you can find details on her book tour in the EYB World Calendar of Cookbook Events.

We're delighted to offer two copies of In a French Kitchen to EYB Members in the United States. One of the entry options is to answer the following question in the comments section of this blog post:

What traditional French dish do you most enjoy making?
