From celebrated author and blogger Béatrice Peltre comes a much
anticipated second book, focusing on everyday foods (all gluten-free) to
share with family and friends**.
To the French, food is one of life's greatest pleasures, and in Béatrice
Peltre's home, each meal is a small celebration. In her kitchen, bright,
colorful ingredients are transformed into wholesome, delicious dishes
and served with love. Here, Béatrice's relaxed, modern approach to
classic French cooking meets the challenge of creating healthy meals for
the whole family--meals to be shared à table, presented with grace and
style.
In My French Family Table, Béatrice offers a beautiful assortment of
over 120 recipes for naturally gluten-free dishes that feature whole
grains, colorful produce, and distinctive spices. Every meal is an
inspired work of love--from breakfast dishes such as Buttermilk,
Lemon, and Strawberry Brunch Cake to a lunch of French Green Bean
Salad with Croûtons, Olives, and Ricotta Salata alongside a healthy
soup or vegetable tart. In the afternoon Béatrice loves to eat the
traditional French goûter with her daughter, Lulu, whose favorite
snack is Brown Butter Madeleines with Buckwheat and Chocolate
Chips. Who could resist a Sunday supper of Chicken Stuffed with
Herbs, Walnuts, and Grainy Mustard, followed by the sweet treat of
Baked Apricots with Lemon Verbena or the indulgent Chocolate
Mousse with Salted Caramel and Matcha Tea Cookies? Béatrice also
includes recipes that are particularly child-friendly to cook and eat,
inspired by her kitchen adventures with Lulu.
With her creative use of ingredients, Béatrice ups the ante on what
family foods can be--incredibly tasty, beautiful, and nourishing.
Béatrice's signature bright photography, impeccable styling, and sweet
storytelling make My French Family Table an inspiring collection of
recipes for feeding a family and feeding them well.
