Confessions of a French Baker - Breadmaking secrets, tips and recipes by Peter Mayle
This is a delightful little book resulting from the author's visits to his local baker's shop in Cavaillon (France) and from conversations about the evolution of the family business with the fourth generation baker, Monsieur Auzet. He describes with illustrations different types of French bread and, step by step, how they are made. It should be an excellent stocking-filler for any Francophile cookery enthusiast this Christmas.
