From a Monastery Kitchen

From a Monastery Kitchen by D'Avila-Latourrette, Victor. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780517206393.

When first published over twenty years ago, FROM A MONASTERY KITCHEN became an instant classic of monastic cookery, admired over the centuries for its emphasis on simplicity, wholesomeness, good taste, and its use of Natures seasons as a source for many ingredients. Now newly revised and expanded, Brother Victor-Antoine dAvila-Latourrette, author of the best seller, Twelve Months of Monastery Soups, has developed more outstanding recipes that will appeal to all those who desire a healthy, all-natural, and always delicious diet. Enhancing the pleasure of the recipes themselves are charming words and quotes that make this book a treasure for both palate and spirit. "For this monk, preparing food is prayer." -GOURMET Magazine
