Experience the award-winning recipes for cookies, cakes, quiches, and croissants from maman, the beloved rustic-chic café
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY TASTE OF HOME - "The perfect host gift but also one that will surely be earmarked, splashed with wine and chocolate from overuse, which in my mind is a smash."--Erin McKenna, owner of Erin McKenna's Bakery Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte opened maman to fill a void in their hearts. They wanted to create a warm, cozy place for people to come together and savor a freshly baked madeleine or slice of savory quiche with the comfort and familiarity of being in their own living room. This collection of 100 recipes spans bestselling dishes from their locations in New York City, Montreal, and Toronto--like Banana-Lavender Cornmeal Waffles with Vanilla Mascarpone, Cumin Chickpea Salad, and the Nutty Chocolate Chip Cookies made famous by none other than Oprah. French café culture and urban-rustic design come together to create a cookbook as delicious as it is visually inspiring. Whether you'd like to make one of Elisa's naked cakes for a special occasion or a roasted chicken sandwich with basil aïoli for lunch, maman welcomes you with open arms.Author Biography
