Tasting Paris by Clotilde Dusoulier
April 16, 2018 by JennyClotilde Dusoulier, the beloved author of the blog Chocolate
& Zucchini, has a new exciting cookbook out this
month. T
asting Paris: 100 Recipes to Eat
Like a Local shares more than 100 recipes, including both
classic and contemporary dishes, as well as 125 evocative
photographs that will charm readers.
Clotilde is a native Parisienne, who as I mentioned, is the
voice behind the blog, Chocolate
& Zucchini, which has been going strong for fifteen
years. This wonderful resource for recipes and Paris inspiration is
indexed for our members.
C&Z was one of the first sites that I followed when I started
reading blogs religiously. The lure of Paris and Clotilde’s
enchanting writing and recipes kept me coming back for more. Her
previous titles are on my bookshelves and are
indexed for our members.
Tasting Paris features recipes that include iconic bistro and brasserie fare such as Steak with peppercorn sauce or decadent pastry, as well as newer dishes that reflect the way Parisians eat today think a Moroccan orange salad, Rice and ginger soup or a Turkish lamb flatbread. I love the global flavors you will find here nestled in between the classic Parisian dishes which makes this book even more enjoyable for me.
The food photography is inspirational and those of Paris will spark wanderlust. Whether you want to picnic along the Seine, shop the open-air markets, or seek out the best street food like a local, Tasting Paris has you covered. Throughout the book, Clotilde is our culinary guide to finding the best baguette and what to look for in obtaining the perfect Paris croissant. For those of us who have been to the city of light and dream of returning, we can recreate the flavors of this captivating city in our own kitchen with the delightful recipes here.
Clotilde has a few events planned which we have placed on our calendar and we will continue to update as more are confirmed.
