Description:
In the heart of the Gascony region of France sits some of the country’s richest farmland, the source of foie gras, juicy strawberries, wild game, and other delectables prized throughout Europe. Through the center of this productive land winds the Canal Latéral à la Garonne, a picturesque waterway dotted with medieval villages, stone bridges and chapels, traditional pâtisseries, and lively farmers’ markets. The canal is also home to author and chef Kate Hill’s popular culinary tours, which are conducted aboard an old Dutch canal boat. In A Culinary Journey in Germany, Kate cruises and cooks along the canals of southwestern France, sharing 80 memorable recipes inspired by the region’s farm-fresh ingredients.
