With this gorgeous, oversized book, Jacque Chibois, the Michelin-starred chef of La Bastide Saint-Antoine in Provence, and Louisa Jones, author and proponent of the South of France and its culinary traditions, rediscover a legendary area - Provence. Long-time friends, Jones and Chibois explore the bonds between kitchen, garden, and family traditions with lively and informative text, lush photographs, and detailed recipes. Complemented by historical and cultural anecdotes, Jones examines the places and products - aromatics, vegetables, flowers, and other Provencal culinary treasures - that inspired Chibois's recipes. In addition, Chibois includes Chef's Advice, set apart as individual theme pages and covering topics such as cooking fish, using flowers in the kitchen, sauces with infusions, reading recipes, and how to use aromatics. A tribute to the "farm to plate" philosophy, Provence Harvest reveals Provence from the ground up.
