Review Quotes:
"We all need to be transported, and this book does just that. Beautifully classic yet inspired recipes that you will want to make for friends and family."-- "Renee Erickson, chef and co-owner of Sea Creatures restaurant group and author of Sunlight & Breadcrumbs"

Review Quotes:
"If anyone captures the heartwarming simplicity of French country living and cooking, it's the endlessly charming mother-daughter duo behind The Cook's Atelier. French at Heart delivers a wealth of family stories and easy-to-follow recipes for Francophiles and home cooks everywhere."-- "Lindsey Tramuta, journalist and author of The New Parisienne"

Review Quotes:
" French at Heart isn't just a collection of classic French recipes, it's a celebration of their shared life in food. . . As someone who has timidly attempted French dishes before (mostly under Ina's direction), I was struck by how approachable these recipes feel. The photography is dreamy, yes--but the instructions are genuinely helpful, and the spirit of the book is deeply warm and welcoming."-- "FOOD52"

Publisher Marketing:
This gorgeous cookbook about living well the French way comes from the founders of The Cook's Atelier, the beloved cooking school in Burgundy, France

Cooking is about more than just the food, and while French at Heart has more than 100 delicious go-to recipes, it's a cookbook for anyone who wants to explore the little details and make our time around the table even more special.

When mother-daughter duo Marjorie Taylor and Kendall Smith Franchini moved to Beaune in Burgundy, France, to open their now incredibly popular cooking school The Cook's Atelier, they learned that choosing to appreciate tiny moments more mindfully, like they saw the French do, really opened their hearts.

To them, being French at heart doesn't mean you have to speak French or live in France; it means slowing down enough to enjoy the little details of every day. Whether that's preparing a meal for your family and taking the time to enjoy it together around the table or taking an extra moment to set the table with fresh flowers, curating your own joy is worth your time. This cookbook offers plenty of ideas for adopting this particularly French habit in your own life.

French at Heart shows how to create simple, joyous family meals around your own table, in whatever place you call home. Recipes range from classics that will make you fall in love with France--things like Salade Niçoise, French Onion Soup, and Tarte Tatin--to more modern French favorites with surprising flavors, like Tataki-Style Beef Tenderloin and Duck Confit Tostadas.

They are simple recipes, what Taylor and Smith Franchini often cook for their family after a long day, and reflect their take on familiar French dishes. There is plenty of advice from the heart on how to serve a memorable cheese or charcuterie board, curate a French-inspired pantry, start your own kitchen garden, or get the most out of your local farmers' market.

Creating meaningful moments around meals and sharing them turns out to be quite contagious--and exactly why people love coming to see Taylor and Smith Franchini at their cooking school.
