Paula Wolfert
Author Profile
The award winning cookbook author Paul Wolfert is perhaps best known for introducing cooks to the cuisines of Morocco, the Mediterranean, and Southwest France. Her first book Couscous and Other Good Food From Morocco (1973) was published after the experience and knowledge she gained from living in Morocco in the 1960’s. For anyone who wants to understand the art of cooking in clay pots and tagines, particularly if you’re going to try a cassoulet for the first time, Paula’s beautiful and informative books should be a part of anyone’s collection. ~ Cookbook Recipe Database
