Surprise, imagination, emotion, memory-these are the key elements behind
the food of Jacques Reymond. Cuisine du Temps features Jacques
Reymond's classically based cuisine embracing Asian tastes and using the
freshest produce that has made him one of the most outstanding food
innovators of his time. Jacques Reymond has continuously developed his

condiments and the clarity and purity of the cuisine. But the changes
have been gradual, and his attitude remains founded on the standards set
by the three-star restaurants of France where he trained. With a

Swimmer Crab and Calves Liver Foie Gras style, to the inspirational Lamb

Gingerbread Pudding with Sauce Suzette, unique ice-creams and sorbets,
and a glossary. Cuisine du Temp will inspire and excite everyone from
the humble weekend cook to connoisseurs and chefs. This book with more
than 100 stunning photographs will be a cookbook classic.
