The winner of four James Beard Awards, co-owner and chef of a world-renowned restaurant, and recipient of countless Michelin stars, Ripert embodies elegance and culinary perfection. But before the accolades, before he even knew how to make a proper hollandaise sauce, Eric Ripert was a lonely young boy in the south of France whose life was falling apart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRipert’s parents divorced when he was six, separating him from the father he idolized and replacing him with a cold, bullying stepfather who insisted that Ripert be sent away to boarding school. A few years later, Ripert’s father died on a hiking trip. Through these tough times, the one thing that gave Ripert comfort was food. Told that boys had no place in the kitchen, Ripert would instead watch from the doorway as his mother rolled couscous by hand or his grandmother pressed out the buttery dough for the treat he loved above all others, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003etarte aux pommes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. When an eccentric local chef took him under his wing, an eleven-year-old Ripert realized that food was more than just an escape: It was his calling. That passion would carry him through the drudgery of culinary school and into the high-pressure world of Paris’s most elite restaurants, where Ripert discovered that learning to cook was the easy part—surviving the line was the battle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking us from Eric Ripert’s childhood in the south of France and the mountains of Andorra into the demanding kitchens of such legendary Parisian chefs as Joël Robuchon and Dominique Bouchet, until, at the age of twenty-four, Ripert made his way to the United States, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e32 Yolks \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis the tender and richly told story of how one of our greatest living chefs found himself—and his home—in the kitchen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"truecooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42666190602336,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2779\/6604\/files\/B99CBC8E-8FBD-4420-9A71-C7E6BC7C28C9.jpg?v=1774653486","url":"https:\/\/truecooks.com\/products\/inscribed-eric-ripert-32-yolks-first-edition","provider":"TrueCooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
