The Cook and the Gardener by Amanda Hesser
The unique, award-winning cookbooka collection of seasonal recipes from a traditional French garden.
"A seasonal tribute to the symbiotic relationship between a chef and her provider of ingredients" -- Austin Chronicle
"The Cook and the Gardener is more than an excellent cookbook. Hesser's knowledgeable, graceful, and opinionated prose calls to mind the great food writers M. F. K. Fisher and Elizabeth David." -- Cooking Light
"In courting the wisdom of M. Milbert, Hesser gained the kind of old-fashioned seasonable sensibility that many of us have lost today—and her delightful recipes reflect this." -- Fine Cooking
"Both Hesser's taste and voice are gentle and sure." -- New York Times Book Review
"This is most assuredly a cookbook, with a collection of 250 seasonal recipes. But Hesser devotes the majority of her exceptional prose to the yearlong blossoming of her friendship with (and informal apprenticeship to) Monsieur Milbert, the august 79-year-old tender of the chateau's two-acre vegetable garden." -- Saveur
