Breakfast in Japan commonly brings to mind dishes such as rice and miso soup, toast, or eggs, but around the world, what people eat in the morning varies greatly from one country and region to another.

From breads and pastries to dishes based on eggs, meat, beans, and grains, as well as sweet breakfasts, each reflects the food culture and everyday life of its place of origin.

In Petit déjeuner, Thomas Clouet explores these diverse breakfast traditions from around the world through more than 150 recipes that can be prepared using readily available ingredients.

The book ranges from familiar favourites such as bagels, pain perdu, omelettes, and granola to lesser-known dishes including shakshuka, hafragrautur, and youtiao.

Through the single theme of breakfast, the book travels across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, North America, and South America, offering a fascinating look at the diversity of food cultures around the world.
