En savoir plus sur le livre
In a remote southwestern French village, a special farm named Pistoulet becomes the backdrop for a tale of food, magic, and love. This charming book blends fiction and recipes, featuring beautifully illustrated elements reminiscent of Griffin and Sabine, including letters and recipes tucked into pockets. The story follows Mademoiselle J., who arrives at Pistoulet heartbroken and is welcomed by its quirky inhabitants: Madame Claude, Monsieur Andre, the black dog Marcel, and a chicken that lays golden eggs. As she heals, Mademoiselle J. discovers soul-nourishing dishes like Potage of Babble, which curbs excessive chatter, Potage of Passion, known for sparking marriage proposals, and Tart of Sunshine, guaranteed to warm both body and soul. The book is filled with delightful recipes that cooking enthusiasts will want to try, even if some directions are whimsical, such as sourcing mussels from the most tattooed fisherman.
