Summary

Published in 1988, Italy the Beautiful Cookbook set the standard for exquisite presentation of the country's authentic cooking. Since then, worldwide interest in the food of Italy has boomed while Italians have continued to adapt their style of eating to the accelerated pace of contemporary life. Kitchens there abound with fresh ideas, streamlined approaches to the classics, rediscovered heritage dishes and a more casual way or assembling menus. Yet every dish is still prepared in the spirit of la cucina italiana, using only the freshest ingredients, simply combined. The delicious results are gathered in Italy Today the Beautiful Cookbook. Emphasis is on lighter first courses and vegetable dishes; easily prepared fish, poultry and meats; homemade breads, pizzas and desserts. Enjoy crostoni of pecorino cheese and fava beans on grilled bread, or ravioli filled with squash flowers followed by grilled scampi with lemon sauce. Taste updated classics such as stracciatella alla maggiorana, Roman egg soup with fresh marjoram; or pollo arrosto al balsamico - roasted chicken sparked with balsamic vinegar. Or relax with a slice or orange cake and a glass of Vin Santo.
