The cuisine of Italy, inspired by the beauty and elegance, the tastes and textures of the country itself, is one of that nation's richest cultural heritages. This book is a very personal celebration... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Mr. Bugialli's book is a classic combination of coffee table picture book and fine cookbook. The recipes do not represent many of the standard Italian "classics." (from the tourist point of view). Instead, they take you deeper into Italian cuisine. The recipe for Torta di funghi was worth the price of the book according to the friends I served it to. Some recipes involve unusual ingredients, but that is OK with me. I care more about authenticity, than about convenience. The fact that the text and pictures take you on a mini-tour of Italy makes this a great book, not just a great cookbook.
