She has an empathy with and understanding of Provençal ingredients that is inspirational

Just as Julia Child brought French cooking to twentieth-century America, so now Melissa Clark brings French cooking into the twenty-first century.

Near to her heart, France is where Melissa's family learned to cook and eat.
