El cocinero francés, de François Pierre de la Varenne

El cocinero francés: 400 unforgettable French recipes from the 17th century. François Pierre de la Varenne

You have to go back to the 17th century, a distant but crucial time, to understand the history of cooking, and above all that of French cooking.

At a time when butter and slow cooking were starting to be preferred to bring out the aromas and produce of the land, figures such as François Pierre de la Varenne would lay the foundations of French gastronomy.

The publication of El cocinero francés in 1651 was a true culinary revolution: the recipe book soon became the gastronomic bible of its day. Rescued from oblivion, here it is reissued in its most abridged and modern version. In it you'll find exquisite recipes of every kind and for every taste, prepared in the most classic culinary tradition. This edition is published in Spanish.
