Praise for Stphane Reynaud"The recipes ... remind you of just how simple, and basic, the art of roasting really is. And on a cold, rainy, windy day, there is little more comforting than the most basic instruction of all: 'Heat the oven.'"-The Los Angeles Times"Offers recipes for every course and appetite... The son of a butcher, Reynaud grew up eating all manner of meat, innards and scraps, a kind of ratatouille of the flesh... well suited to adherents of the nose-to-tail, no-waste philosophy."-Christine Muhlke, The New York Times Magazine"With Reynaud's books, I always feel as if I can understand just where it is that French food comes from. The dishes tend toward hearty, approachable fare from the French countryside, but the recipes can guide a home cook to new comfort with a sometimes intimidating cuisine." -Don and Samantha Lindgren, owners of Rabelais in Portland, Maine, in Bon Appetit "It might be presumptuous to say that anything could be a one-stop resource on rustic French cooking, but Reynaud's door-stopper cookbook comes pretty close." -Booklist"Always with excitement do I open a cookbook by Stphane Reynaud.... This is the type of book to put next to your night table and read a few pages before going to sleep and to dream of marvelous feasts."-Colette Rossant, Super Chef
