The bible for lovers of Provence kitchen.

This is an unbelievable resource. First published in 1895, this outstanding repository of 1,120 recipes may not be the most lavish of the many books that have been published on the food of Provence, but in France it has long been the durable, first-place-to-look for a traditional bourride, for sardines gratinee aux épinards, oeufs farcis aux anchois, or fine peach and apricot preserves.

The editor, Jean-Baptiste Reboul was born and raised in the Provençal settlement of La Roquebrussanne, between Marseilles and Monaco. He apprenticed as a cook while still young and went on to be chef at hotels in both southern France and Switzerland.
