In her poignant memoir. Sylvie traces her journey through the stunning French countryside as she learns the deeper meaning of authentic cassoulet from her culinary guru. Along the way, she blends generational family drama with her gastronomic training. Engulfing the reader in the simmering smells of the French kitchen, Cassoulet Confessions is a story to savor.
