The Larousse Treasury of Country Cooking gathers hundreds of regional recipes that evolved over centuries in the country kitchens of many lands, created by ingenious, painstaking, and imaginative cooks using fresh, low-cost, locally available ingredients. People, for reasons of health, vitality, and weight, are moving toward simpler lifestyles and informal entertaining. A worldwide movement back to basics is driving renewed interest in simple food, simply prepared.
