What if you could effortlessly whip up authentic French dishes at home using everyday ingredients, even with minimal cooking experience?

Our goal has always been to make French food accessible to home cooks around the world, and we set out to ensure our first cookbook stays true to that vision. This cookbook is designed for anyone to pick up and use to create genuine French cuisine at home without needing a culinary degree or spending hours in the kitchen.

But what truly distinguishes our cookbook is that most of the recipes incorporate fundamental culinary techniques. That means every recipe you make will help you learn new skills and become a better cook in the process. From mastering dressings and mayonnaise to creating rich stocks, sautéing, braising, and crafting classic bistro pan sauces, this book will teach you to effortlessly prepare classic salads, soups, appetizers, main courses, sides, and, of course, a wide variety of mouthwatering desserts that French cuisine is cherished for.

Whether you're looking to learn the basics of French cooking or simply wish to recreate authentic French dishes at home with ease, we think you will enjoy our first book. It's a labor of love and a gateway to the wonderful world of French cuisine.

## Every recipe is a lesson in French cooking. the more you cook, the more you learn.









### the two of us.

People are often surprised when they learn that it's just the two of us behind the French Cooking Academy.

Creating a book with 100 recipes, each accompanied by a photo to show you what the dish should look like, is no small feat. We poured our heart and soul into crafting our first book. It truly was a roller-coaster ride as we lived, breathed (and ate) these dishes for almost a year.

Every dish you see as you flip through the pages was tested and tasted dozens of times by me in our home kitchen, and each picture was beautifully styled and photographed by Kate. Here's how it worked: I would prepare the dish, then rush it immediately to our photography space for Kate to capture. Then, we would devour it for lunch, dinner, or dessert, or share it with our neighbors (there is a limit to how many choux puffs with chantilly cream you can eat after several test runs). What you see is exactly what has just come out of the oven or the fridge, without a team of stylists using tricks to enhance the presentation.
