A classic from Louis Saulnier, Le Répertoire de La Cuisine is essential reading for both chefs and professionals who are interested in learning and following traditional French recipes. Written in 1914, this book is a shorthand guide to the cuisine of Saulnier himself. This hardback edition features a special insert with introductory remarks from Jacques Pepin, George Lang and Saulnier. Be warned, though. There are no lists and instructions for recipes, instead this book features more notes on classic techniques and suits someone who knows the basics of cooking and is looking to master, refine and innovate their skills.
