Synopsis

Contemporary and classic recipes from every corner of Italy, with an essential cook's guide to ingredients

The essence of Italian cooking is its simplicity, relying on the delicious tastes and textures of freshly grown ingredients.

Gabriella Rossi guides you through the wonderful array of local ingredients, from the plump, sun-ripened tomatoes of the south, to the fish and shellfish of the coast, and creamy cheeses of the dairy-farming north.

A comprehensive collection of recipes includes all the classic dishes from antipasti, pastas and pizzas to fish, shellfish and meats, and from ices and desserts to cakes and breads.

Create your own taste of Italy with this mouthwatering selection, choosing from such dishes as Grilled Aubergine Parcels, Pansotti with Herbs and Cheese, Spinach and Ricotta Gnocchi, Gingered Semi-freddo, and Tiramisu.

An indispensable handbook for anyone who wants to explore the wonders of authentic Italian cooking.
