"Chef Matt makes French food easy for everyone. Everyone should love French food forever." -Matty Matheson
The most venerated French dishes, prepared for a new generation of chefs by rising star Matthew Ryle-with a foreword by Michelin-starred chef Raymond Blanc.
We're in the midst of a French food renaissance, in no small part thanks to Matthew Ryle and his accessible, warm approach to the most classic of cuisines. French Classics is full of recipes that have for centuries withstood the test of time-and are soon to break through to a new generation of chefs.
Whether you're craving the perfect Croque Madame for lunch or Beef Bourguignon on a cold night, hoping to surprise your partner with Steak Diane or wow your family and friends with a "Grande Bouffe," French Classics has you covered-and will leave you wondering why you haven't been cooking this food your whole life. With a 70/30 split of "Easy" and "Elevated" dishes, these recipes are made for any home cook who appreciates fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and true classics.

I've long been a fan of Maison François, with its confident and assured cooking and this book is a beautiful collection of those delicious French classics. One to linger over.

This book is just the beginning of the knowledge Matthew's eager to share, and I have no doubt there will be many more to come. But this one is truly fantastic.

Genuinely one of the most beautiful books I've seen … It's a book that every chef or aspiring chef and every home cook should have.

An instant classic for the ages. Matt has written a love letter to French cuisine that feels like a gift to all of us, I want to cook it all.
