Would there be an updated English version of this, for enjoyment of those who can’t travel to Paris.

I cannot help but concede that the French create gastronmical wonders with a lot...but blessed are those who can prepare wonders with simple few ingredients...

I just finished translating a cookbook (Greek to English) written by a monk at Mount Athos and he does wonders with meager rations...and no meat eggs or cheese!
