Harvesting Excellence

An illustrated celebration of the incredible bounty found in the U.S. by world-renowned chef Alain Ducasse. He states that this bounty invites us, the chefs, & those who cook in their own kitchens to elicit the finest subtleties in food. I have always been enticed by the challenge to blend my French savoir-faire with the profusion of Amer. flavor. With the enormous range of products in this country, the creative potential is boundless. A food experience reaches unparalleled heights when the consumer knows the source of the product, specifically, the people who take the time & care to nurture their harvests. After all, while the je ne sais quoi of a chef begins with the proper ingredients, the ingredients come only from the savoir-faire of the harvesters.ÓDucasse, Alain is the author of 'Harvesting Excellence', published 2005 under ISBN 9780756773601 and ISBN 0756773601.
