Description: August Zang and the French Croissant (2nd edition) by Jim Chevallier Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Yes, an Austrian brought the croissant to France - but it wasnt Marie-Antoinette. In 1839, the Parisian press began to mention a new "Viennese Bakery" and its "exquisite and crisp rolls". Zang, its founder, had been an artillery officer and would become a press magnate. In his short time in Paris, he not only introduced the "kipfel" - the Austrian crescent roll - but techniques which would later make the baguette possible. This is a brief look at his bakery and its influence on French baking and at his later career as "the father of the Austrian daily press". This second edition includes a look at the rue de Richelieu and changes in Paris shops. Author Biography Jim Chevalliers essay on the French eighteenth century breakfast is included in "Consuming Culture in the Long Nineteenth Century". His historical cookbooks include "How to Cook a Peacock" (a translation of Taillevents medieval "Viandier") and two volumes in the "Apres Moi Le Dessert series (both collections of French eighteenth century recipes).
