French Tea

The Pleasures of the Table

Více o knize

With their innate sense of style, the French transform tea into an art form. From charming tea salons in Paris to outdoor cafés in Provence, Carole Manchester explores the elegance of French tea culture. The narrative highlights various tea experiences, from poolside at the Hôtel Ritz to cozy fireside gatherings in the 6th arrondissement, showcasing the unique touches that make each tea setting distinct. Readers will discover mint tea with Moroccan pastries in a former mosque, elaborate teas in grand hotels, and simple family moments in loft kitchens, all beautifully illustrated by Juliette d'Assay’s photography. Additionally, the book features a selection of French pastries, with recipes for favorites like Tarte Tatin, Financiers, Honey Madeleines, Fougasse, and Zucchini Quiche. It also includes glossaries of teas and pastries, tips on selecting and serving the finest tea, a guide to the best salons de thé in France, and instructions for brewing the perfect pot of tea.
