Daniel de la Falaise trained as a chef at Harry's Bar in London and later cooked with Gordon Ramsay and Alain Ducasse. For the past decade he has worked as a private chef whose clients are among Hollywood and fashion royalty. Falaise writes a cooking column in French Vogue and has been profiled in The New York Times Style Magazine, Wall Street Journal, Town & Country, The Telegraph, The Lifestyle Mirror, and L'Uomo Vogue. His line of specialty vinegars and olive oils is sold at Selfridge's in London and Claus in Paris.
"A vegetable-centric cookbook moored in seasonality and subtle,
smart cooking techniques."
-MARIN INDEPENDENT JOURNAL "Filled with tips for the aspiring
gentleman farmer, from how to store your cold-pressed olive oil to
when one should expect mirabelle plums, the collection also
includes recipes for every course - even if de la Falaise would
prefer that his readers stay joyful and improvisational. . .
Judging from the look of the saffron rissotto, seared banana, and
caviar-topped quail eggs, though, it won't do you much harm to go
by the book."
-VOGUE
"A book that takes the classics and gives you the perfect result
...de la Falaise took his training from some great chefs and can be
totally trusted -- a vital book if you seriously want to get it
right." - Rose Prince, The Spectator
"Stylish and inspiring.... A highly original book, full of
uncomplicated and visually dazzling and delicious recipes and
ideas." - Diane Dorrans Saeks, the Style Saloniste "It is rare that
someone is able to recount the art of cooking as if it were a magic
story that tickles all the senses...Nature's Larder provokes in the
reader a kind of sensorial pleasure that takes one back to a real
contact with nature." - Maria Grazia Meda, VOGUE Italia "Nature's
Larder is not just a cookbook. It's a classic." - Dutch Financial
Times
"[Falaise's] prose packs a punch you might expect from Lawrence
Durrell more than you would a cookbook. Well, this ain't your
average cookbook." - Legacy Talk Radio
"Superb." - Arthur Dreyfus, Holiday Magazine
