Description

Des premiers recueils de recettes du Moyen Age aux discours des grands gastronomes qui font et défont les réputations, ce livre retrace la lente sophistication de la cuisine française. Il explique comment, grâce à la maîtrise progressive des techniques de cuisson, grâce aussi à la rationalisation de l'espace où officiaient les cuisiniers, les grands chefs ont su moderniser les traditions. Patrick Rambourg évoque les différentes modes : la " nouvelle cuisine " au siècle des Lumières, qui se veut plus délicate, plus savante que celle du Grand Siècle avec ses nombreuses garnitures et sauces au beurre ; la " cuisine décorative " de Carême ou encore la " cuisine des palaces " d'Escoffier. Cette dernière provoquera, par réaction, l'essor des cuisines régionales, qui, selon l'auteur, constituent aujourd'hui une des plus grandes forces de notre patrimoine gastronomique. Mêlant pratique, histoire et théorie, Patrick Rambourg nous entraîne avec passion dans l'aventure de la cuisine française et nous montre comment elle a acquis une renommée internationale tout en devenant une spécificité culturelle reconnue par tous.
