From Paris farmers’ markets to the Brittany coast, Carrie Solomon’s cooking is infused with flavour and creativity.
When Carrie Solomon moved to France 20 years ago, it was far from la belle vie for a vegetarian immersing herself in local cuisine. But a vegetable-forward French cuisine began to gain popularity and soon she was experimenting with vegetarian French dishes in her Parisian kitchen. From a bohème lifestyle, Solomon’s flair for cooking vegetarian dishes emerged.
In Bohème Cooking, Solomon takes you on a journey to capture that little piece of France in your own kitchen. This is vegetarian cooking that reflects the modern, unfussy garden-forward French cuisine that she has grown to love. It’s herbaceous and bright, with recipes like Chickpea Flour Frites for apéro hour. It’s warm and earthy, with a comforting Mushroom and Potato Tartiflette. And offers sweet simplicity with an easy riff on the classic millefeuille. This utterly charming portrait of France’s love for vegetables will sweep you away into her imaginative kitchen.
