Illustrations by Sidonie Coryn based on photographs by Paul Child. Technical drawings by Paul Child. The beloved sequel to the bestselling classic Mastering the Art of French Cooking Volume II presents more fantastic French recipes for home cooks. Working from the principle that “mastering any art is a continuing process” here Julia Child and Simone Beck have gathered together a brilliant selection of new dishes that will bring you to a yet higher level of culinary mastery. They have searched out more of the classic dishes and regional specialties of France and adapted them so that Americans working with American ingredients in American kitchens can achieve the incomparable flavors and aromas that bring up a rush of memories—of lunch at a country inn in Provence of an evening at a great Paris restaurant of the essential cooking of France. From French bread to salted goose from peasant ragoûts to royal Napoleons recipes are written with the same detail exactness and clarity that are the soul of Mastering the Art of French Cooking.

They established their own cooking school L' Ecoles des Trois Gourmands to give French cooking lessons to American women living in Paris. Bertholle and Beck had already self-published a small cookbook "What's Cooking in France " and together with Julia they planned to write a "great big book" of French cooking for an American audience. The book took almost ten years to write with Child and Beck doing almost all of the writing and recipe testing. Grand in scale the manuscript was refined reworked and finally condensed into one very large volume. Houghton Mifflin who had originally optioned the work turned it down as too large and complex. Eventually Knopf's literary editor Judith Jones convinced Alfred Knopf to publish it as a working French cookbook incorporating the traditions of cuisine bourgeoise with touches of haute cuisine demystifying dishes that Americans had only dreamed about savoring in French restaurants and providing the means to prepare those dishes with detailed instruction in a modern American kitchen. Mastering the Art of French Cooking was published to critical acclaim in September 1961. Craig Claiborne called it "probably the most comprehensive laudable and monumental work on the subject" written "without compromise or condescension." Michael Field said it surpassed every other American book on French cooking already in print. And when the British edition was published Elizabeth David opined "A very remarkable work indeed dealing mainly with the finer French cooking. The techniques explained and more authentically and fully explained than in any previous cookery book in the English language are applicable to all French cooking of whatever category. The book is illustrated with instructive line drawings. An important reference book for every serious cook amateur or professional." The already strong sales for what was at the time an expensive book increased exponentially with Julia Child's appearance on Boston's public broadcasting TV station WGBH in 1962 and her ensuing TV programme The French Chef. The increased exposure lead to Knopf commissioning a second volume written by Child and Beck but without Bertholle and published 1970 and all three authors individually publishing further cookery books. Notwithstanding the joint ownership Mastering the Art of French Cooking is most closely associated with Julia Child. By the end of her long life Child had become an icon of culinary excellence and expertise. Her support led to the establishment of several of the USA's most important culinary foundations: the American Institute of Wine and Food; Copia: The American Center for Wine Food and the Arts; and in 1986 after the death of her friend James Beard the conversion of his town house in Greenwich Village into a nonprofit foundation now the influential James Beard Foundation. In recognition of her achievements she was the first woman inducted into the Culinary Institute of America's hall of fame. In 1965 she won the George Foster Peabody Award; in 1966 she won an Emmy for The French Chef; and in 1980 the National Book Award for Julia Child and More Company . In 2000 she was awarded the Legion of Honour from the French government; and in 2003 the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom. She was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2000 and she received honorary doctorates from Harvard University Johnson & Wales University Smith College Brown University and several other universities. In 2007 she was inducted into the USA's National Women's Hall of Fame An excellent signed copy of one of the most significant books on French cooking in English in the twentieth century. ¹ Invitation to attend a special book signing 5 June 2002 at the California School of Culinary Arts Pasadena laid in.

2011ref. 408604Alfred A. Knopf 2011. Hardcover. A new copy. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The definitive cookbook on French cuisine for American readers: "What a cookbook should be: packed with sumptuous recipes detailed instructions and precise line drawings. Some of the instructions look daunting but as Child herself says in the introduction 'If you can read you can cook.'" --Entertainment Weekly "I only wish that I had written it myself." --James Beard Featuring 524 delicious recipes and over 100 instructive illustrations to guide readers every step of the way Mastering the Art of French Cooking offers something for everyone from seasoned experts to beginners who love good food and long to reproduce the savory delights of French cuisine. Julia Child Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle break down the classic foods of France into a logical sequence of themes and variations rather than presenting an endless and diffuse catalogue of dishes--from historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas. Throughout the focus is on key recipes that form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves to an infinite number of elaborations--bound to increase anyone's culinary repertoire. "Julia has slowly but surely altered our way of thinking about food. She has taken the fear out of the term 'haute cuisine.' She has increased gastronomic awareness a thousandfold by stressing the importance of good foundation and technique and she has elevated our consciousness to the refined pleasures of dining." --Thomas Keller The French Laundry Alfred A.
