Best French cookbooks for making classic dishes at home

France is a culturally and gastronomically-rich country. For centuries, the food from the Hexagon has long been the star of the show with so much variety.

Generally inspired by local produce, you’ll find an abundance of patisseries from Paris, mouth-watering crêpes from Brittany served all year round (not just on Shrove Tuesday), and an endless stream of seafood dishes from the coast - moules mariniére is after all one of the most revered dishes.
