La Gazette

My friends, I took great pleasure in writing this book for you as for so many years you have been faithful to my cuisine and you have made La Cagouille what it is today.
But it not easy to talk about the book...

It is not a traditional recipe book because for me "cooking is more than mere recipes".

A recipe rarely comes from nothing. Through its history, it is often located at the crossroads of emotions and memories.

Memories of tastes and smells, paths formed in the mind through our habit and desire for what we love, our experiences elsewhere, a table of friends...
And then there are our travels, the flavour of a fruit by the roadside, reading words that make your mouth water, the fragrance of far away markets, the subtle smell of a freshly-caught fish in a boat gently rocked by the waves...

So many emotions, meetings, so many moments which have left their indelible mark on me, training my tastes and inspiring my cuisine. Is it knowledge? Rather, it is culture, and today I want to share it with you.

In 128 pages, you will find 65 recipes - that you have already tasted at La Cagouille - and 80 original watercolours by Serge Benbouche.
In a short introduction, he reminds us of the parth travelled to reach Place Constantin Brancusi!
He then presents his recipes under two main titles: "La cuisine de la mémoire" and "La cuisine de La Cagouille".
A summary of these two chapters is on page 3.
At the end of the book there are a few indications on "how to "perfectly" cook La Cagouille" cuisine, followed by an index and a bibliography.
You can buy the book at any good bookshop... And it is also on sale at La Cagouille !
