French Pastries and Desserts by Lenotre by Team Paris
Gaston Lenôtre, the legendary master French pâtissier, was revered for having made desserts lighter and more delicious; his techniques continue to influence pastry chefs in France and around the world. This new edition of the now cult cookbook-first published in English in 1977 as Lenôtre's Desserts and Pastries-has been updated in collaboration with the chefs at Lenôtre Paris and two of the founder's children. Two hundred essential recipes include croissants, éclairs, crêpes, mille-feuilles, baba au rhum, molten chocolate cake, lemon meringue pie, and mango tartlet. The chefs at Lenôtre Paris-who run a world-class cooking school-have adapted the recipes for amateur bakers and experienced professionals alike who seek inspiration from the rich tradition of Lenôtre's French pâtisserie.
The great French culinary master Gaston Lenü¾†˜¼tre (1920-2009) opened his first pastry shop with his wife, Colette, in Normandy in 1945, and another in Paris a decade later, before founding ü¾Ž–Œ¼cole Lenü¾†˜¼tre with his son, Alain, in 1971, which has trained the world's leading pastry chefs. Lenü¾†˜¼tre Paris is a culinary empire--from restaurants and catering, to an international network of bakeries and culinary education centers, it embodies French savoir vivre and savoir faire. First published in French, this classic reference has been translated into English, German, Japanese, and Danish. Two of Lenü¾†˜¼tre's children participated in this updated edition: Sylvie Gille-Naves, who developed several cookbooks with her father, along with Alain Lenü¾†˜¼tre and his wife, Marie, who together founded the Culinary Institute Lenü¾†˜¼tre in Houston, Texas, ranked as the best college for culinary arts in America by Niche.
