Description

Jacques Pépin's memoir is a captivating account of his life in the kitchen, from his early days as a homesick boy working on a farm in war-ravaged France to his rise as an Emmy Award-winning chef and culinary icon.

Through his journey, Pépin shares stories of his time in America, where he became part of a small group of food lovers who helped redefine American cuisine. He recounts his experiences teaching millions of Americans how to cook, shaping the nation's tastes, and earning a graduate degree from Columbia University.

The book also includes 40 of Pépin's favorite recipes, created over the course of nearly half a century, showcasing his mastery of the American art of reinvention.
