Jacques Pepin's Fast Food My Way

In a spinoff from his PBS series of the same name, Jacques Pepin presents a new kind of cookbook--but one that sticks to his ironclad culinary principles. His fast food has nothing to do with McDonald's. What he does, in his own delightfully French way, is to translate traditional dishes into versions that maintain their integrity but are quicker to prepare. The results are as authentically continental as Pepin himself. Homemade soups, juicy roasts, sophisticated chicken entrees, and quick, delicious desserts--they're all here, with Pepin's reassuring instructions and a wealth of helpful photos.
