When Mimi Thorisson and her family moved from Paris to a small townin out-of-the-way Médoc, she did not quite know whatwas in store for them. She found wonderful ingredients—from local farmers andthe neighboring woods—and, most important, time to cook. Her cookbookchronicles the family’s seasonal meals and life in an old farmhouse, allphotographed by her husband, Oddur. Mimi’s convivial recipes—such as RoastChicken with Herbs and Crème Fraîche, Cèpe and Parsley Tartlets, WinterVegetable Cocotte, Apple Tart with Orange Flower Water, and Salted Butter CrèmeCaramel—will bring the warmth of rural France into your home.

這是一對夫妻、七個孩子與十四隻狗

在法國鄉間的四季生活。

他們採集野菇莓果，

穿梭小鎮市集，

家人朋友齊聚餐桌，

歡享Mimi的盛宴⋯⋯

誘人的食譜與美麗的照片帶我們來到法國的酒鄉梅多克，

走進Mimi優雅溫暖的廚房中，品味四季的美好滋味。

與家人從巴黎搬到法國西南部的梅多克定居時，

Mimi還不確定什麼樣的生活正等待著他們。

隨著四季更迭，

她帶著孩子們逛市集，採買美麗的當令蔬果；

與肉鋪、麵包店及農場主人成為朋友，享有**手的資訊交流；

甚至在鄰近森林中找到美妙的牛肝菌，烹煮季節的恩賜。

一點一滴，她與家人完美融入了梅多克的生活，

這裡雖然沒有大城市的現代便利，

但每天早晨一睜開雙眼，大自然的氣息就在窗邊，

這是巴黎無法擁有的體驗。

Mimi在本書中紀錄了她的繽紛餐點及一家人的生活，

她的攝影師先生歐度則用相機拍下一切。

這些為了家人與朋友們用心烹煮的菜餚，

從日常的三餐、節慶聚會的盛宴到隨手拿取的小點心，

因為與親愛的人們一同享用，而更顯美味。
