Synopsis

The Alice B. Toklas Cook Book is her true memoir: a collection of traditional French recipes that predates Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Toklas supplies familiar recipes such as coq au vin, bouillabaisse, and boeuf bourguignon, along with what is perhaps the earliest instructions for haschich fudge (“which anyone could whip up on a rainy day”), and she entertains with fascinating memories of Paris (Toklas’ home for most of her life) and of rural France, Spain, and America.
