Why did you decide to create this cookbook?
With À Table, I dive into the magic of France that I’ve gotten to know intimately living here. I share recipes that offer up the sexy, sparkling charm that is the French meal to others, wherever their homes may be.
What can readers learn from the French way of cooking?
The rituals and customs around cooking in France have long been romanticized, but that doesn’t mean they’re not accessible. À Table aims to merge the imagined French fantasy with the truth of cooking and eating to create a doable but charming reality.
What is your favorite meal to make for yourself?
My absolute favorite meal is really a “snack dinner,” which sounds much more chic in French: “apéro dînatoire.” On my table it includes Le Grand Aïoli surrounded by vegetables for dipping and a tin of sardines. Add a crusty baguette, some olives, maybe a few slices of saucisson, and a good bottle of wine and it’s, hands-down, my favorite meal to enjoy.
