Joie de Vivre
The three best friends Sacha de Boer (photographer and hobby cook), Babs Assink (journalist) and Janine Smits (stylist) pay tribute to French cuisine. For their lifestyle cookbook Joie de Vivre, they asked ten top chefs to put their own spin on the classic recipes from a French cookbook from 1873.
Cooking, good food and good conversations play an important role in the many years of friendship between Sacha, Babs and Janine. In the attic of Janine's farmhouse in Burgundy, she found the old French cookbook La Cuisinère de la campagne et de la ville, nouvelle cuisine économique:a reference book that every self-respecting home cook from the 19th century should have on their bookshelf.
In the beautiful French outdoor kitchen of the farm, Sacha tried out various dishes, which the friends loved. Then the idea arose to ask ten Dutch and Flemish top chefs to make a number of recipes according to today's standards.
The top chefs – Jean Beddington, Ron Blaauw, Jonnie Boer, Jacob-Jan Boerma, Wout Bru, Erik van Loo, Nicolas Misera, Seppe Nobels, Margo Reuten and Angélique Schmeinck – developed 60 delicious dishes, which thanks to the clearly described recipes can also be used by home chefs. to be made good. The recipes are presented stylishly and enriched with striking portraits and atmospheric photos of the French countryside.
