Synopsis

A healthy and delicious trove of recipes that capture the heart of Provence but not the fat

In Provencal Light, first published in hardcover in 1994, Martha Rose Shulman embraces the glorious essence of Provence as she introduces us to her favorite recipes, rich and redolent with flavor but lightened for today's lifestyles.

Provencal Light takes us on a fantastic culinary tour of the south of France. Nutrition-conscious home cooks can enjoy such culinary marvels as the ravioli of Nice, filled with chard and chicken or herbs with ricotta cheese; nourishing vegetable tortes; creamy Asparagus and Fresh Pea Risotto; Stuffed Summer Vegetables; Pan-Roasted Quail with Quinces and Figs; and luscious Pear and Apple Souffle. Plus there is a scrumptious selection of richly flavored vegetable gratins and ragouts; satisfying pastas and gnocchi; and heavenly, naturally sweet fruit tarts, clafoutis, and sorbets.

Each recipe is accompanied by a complete nutritional breakdown, including calories, sodium, and fat content. Provencal Light lets you enjoy the marvelous cuisine of the south of France while adhering to a healthful, hearty diet. This is the perfect marriage of low-fat eating and good taste for everyone with a passion for food.
