La Confrerie Du Pate Croute: World Championship Winning Recipes - Best French Pâté en Croûte Cookbook for Home Chefs & Gourmet Cooking Enthusiasts" （注：原标题为法语，优化后保留了法语品牌名称，增加了英文说明和场景描述）

For the last decade, the professional organization known as the Brotherhood of Pâté-Croûte has sponsored an annual competition in which its members seek to have their work recognized for technical skill, flavor, and attractiveness.

Collected here are 33 entries from both French and foreign chefs (particularly Japanese) that demonstrate remarkable skill as well as thoughtful innovation. As you’d expect with prize-winners, many are arrestingly composed both inside and out, with intricate internal layers and dramatically detailed crusts.  For instance, Julien Viollet, the 2016 winner of the prix de élégance, creates a miniature vegetable garden brimming with ripe produce. And 2017 finalist David de Quellec’s vibrant crusts resemble an enamel box.

Full of great inspiration.
