Good food has always been essential to the Italian way of life. Italian cooks combine a wealth of fresh ingredients to create flavoursome and delicious meals, and often in just a few simple stages.

A Feast of Italian includes authentic recipes from all over the country along with traditional favourites like Mixed Seafood Salad, Baked Lasagne, Stuffed Peppers and Pizza Margherita and some less well-known but equally tasty dishes such as Baked Mussels and Potatoes, and chargrilled Squid. There are dishes to suit every occasion, whether you are preparing a quick and simple salad or an elaborate meal.

Every recipe is clearly illustrated with step-by-step photography and a wonderful picture of the finished dish to show you what you are aiming for. Cook's tips provide handy information or suggest interesting variations to the recipes. An informative introduction on Italian cooking and the ingredients used, together with a section of basic recipes, make this an indispensable guide.

If you love Italian food and want to recreate the authentic taste at home with ease, this is the ideal book for you. Buon Appetito!
