Description:
Rise to the Occasion: A French Food Experience
Hedda Gioia Dowd
A celebration of food, tradition, and the French lifestyle, this unique collection of recipes, anecdotes, and photographs from rise, an oasis of French cuisine in Dallas, offers readers nothing short of a completely transformative sensory experience. With a menu designed to complement and celebrate the restaurant’s masterpiece dish––the soufflé––rise specializes in nurturing the body and soul. Savory and sweet soufflés, bright salads, and artisanal cheeses are among the highlights of the eatery’s simple and elegant menu.
Amid sections discussing entertaining and food consciousness, Rise to the Occasion presents recipes such as escargot soufflé, apricot galette, hay roasted duck, and chocolate soufflé. Illustrated step-by-step instructions will enable any interested eater to master the art of the soufflé. Much more than a cookbook, this elegant volume offers Francophiles and foodies an opportunity to experience the true passion and pleasure of eating.
