Len Deightons French Cooking for Men by Len Deighton

Revised and updated edition of the celebrated cookery classic, featuring 50 cookstrips that will solve the mysteries of French cuisine and unlock the key to 500 memorable dishes. Includes a new introduction by the author.

‘The most fascinating books about gastronomy are not those written by chefs, however legendary, nor by professional food writers, however famousThe stuff that Len Deighton conjures up so enticingly is what food enthusiasts’ dreams are made of. Its bedrock is knowledge: his beginnings in professional kitchens in France are only too clear; so is his reverence for solid traditions.’
Egon Ronay

‘In my opinion one of the best primers to French cookery’
Fay Maschler

‘The Best cookstrip guide to French cooking that I have ever seen.’
Daily Express

'[Len Deighton's cookbooks] have attracted cult following for their brilliant design as much as for their comprehensive approach to cooking… his democratising, demystifying approach couldn't be more appropriate'
Guardian
