"She really taught me modern, simplified French cooking. I discovered that book when I was really just getting serious about cooking. It was the time, it was the place, it was her voice. She understood French cooking and could tell me, an American, how to make it taste like it tastes in Paris, and I love that." --Melissa Clark-- Melissa Clark , WNYC, "She really taught me modern, simplified French cooking.
