Fruit Fete
From easy to elegant, Jacques Pepin shares more than 125 recipes from his legendary career. With his usual ease and flair, Jacques cooks what he loves -- from classical Escoffier Quenelles to homey Braised Beef in Red Wine, and mouth-watering treats, including a Quick Almond Plum Cake and a perfect Chocolate Mousse. It's no wonder that Julia Child called Jacques "the best chef in America!"

Jacques’ Good Lady Apples Bon Femme recipe satisfies all apple cravings with maple-sweetened fruit. Then Jacques adds basil leaves to a Stew of Red Summer Fruit to make a deliciously flavorful, fragrant dessert. He also prepares two more simple and tasty dishes: Braised Pears in a Caramel Sauce and Flambeed Bananas. Apples return as the main ingredient for the final dish of Apple Fritters.
