First published in June 1923 to immediate success, Xavier Marcel Boulestin's Simple French Cooking for English Homes did much to popularise French cuisine in the English-speaking world. In this charming book, chef, restaurateur and author Boulestin dispels the myth that French cooking is complicated, rich and full of nondescript dishes with pretentious names by offering over 300 delicious recipes - including traditional favourites such as Sorrel Soup, Pommes de Terre Boulangere, Entrecote Bordelaise and Galette au Chocolat - which are simple and easy to make. And, very topically, the book also reveals both that many of the very best French dishes are made up of 'remnants' and that there is very little waste in the French kitchen.
