Beschreibung:
Eugenie Brazier was born a peasant farmer's daughter who was sent out to look after the pigs when she was aged just four. Put into service she learned to cook when the family went on holiday to the south of France and their old chef stayed behind. The recipes here provide a unique canon, much imitated but never surpassed, a truly magical gastronomic experience that drew movie stars like Marlene Deitrich to her door, as well as presidents and all of Lyon, where she is an icon and has a street named after her. Among the young chefs to train with her were Paul Bocuse and Bernard Pacaud of L'Ambroisie in Paris - both three star Michelin icons who pay their respects in this unique book.
