Publisher's Note Hailed as a healthful addition to modern diets, walnuts have long been a staple of classic French cooking. This charming book, originally published in France, pays homage homage to the simple, fabulous walnut in stylish salads and condiments, as a rustic accompaniment to hearty entrees, in chic desserts and pastries--even as a flavorful liqueur.
Industry Reviews "Many [recipes] are unusually appealing, and some (walnut-husk liqueur and walnut-leaf wine) are intriguing....As translated by Betsy Draine and Michael Hinden, the recipes are marvels of clear writing. I found it difficult to stop testing recipes after the first dozen or so triumphs." New York Times - Suzanne Hamlin (11/04/1998)
