Nicoise Cookbook: Authentic French Recipes from the Sunny Mediterranean Coast - Perfect for Home Chefs & Mediterranean Cuisine Lovers

The proprietor of a cooking school in Nice, Rosa Jackson is an enthusiastic convert to the city’s flavors and sun-drenched colors, having left behind both Edmonton, Alberta and Paris before settling on the Mediterranean shore.

Niçoise is smart and knowledgeable, characterized by detailed recipes for both traditional dishes as well as some which are signature creations of local chefs. In this seasonally arranged book, vegetables and fruits seem to be at the forefront. Fish is more common than beef or chicken. 

Speedy preparation is not the primary appeal of the food here, but your investment of time offers an appealing payoff in dishes such as:

• Olive and artichoke risotto with crisp pancetta
• Zucchini baked with eggs and goat cheese
• Rack of lamb with mustard-herb crust
• Mussels with tomato and saffron
• Peaches roasted with olive oil and honey
• Coffee cream puffs

Handsomely photographed with ample images from the city’s streets and food establishments, this is a book for seriously motivated cooks.
