In The Cooking of Normandy, Jane Grigson has brought together a selection of recipes from a region of France she knows particularly well. Normandy has a special appeal for the British; it's cuisine makes us of familiar ingredients and yet has a characteristic richness and splendour which gives it an honoured place in the traditions of French cooking. This delightfully illustrated book contains unusual local dishes as well as classic recipes, especially those based on the well known Normandy specialties: dairy produce, fish and seafood.
