French Provincial cooking, in particular the food of Provence and southern France, has intrigued me since I first read ‘A Year in Provence’. I’m inspired by the precision, the presentation and the ingredient knowledge that seems the birthright of every citizen of this food-obsessed country. Whenever we visit, no matter where we are – in a tiny village, down a forgotten alley – someone is preparing something impossibly delicious to eat. Wander with me into the France of my memory and let’s cook and explore this cuisine together.
