This is a cookbook like no other. It evokes the essence of Northern Italy's traditional foods in a beautifully wrought amalgam of recipe and narrative. It beckons you across the wet stone of Venice's Rialto bridge into a candlelit fifteenth-century cantina. It invites you down a forest road in Umbria, where grappa-fortified fishermen toss trout onto a wood fire and stage a sunset feast. It proffers nearly two hundred recipes from the heart and soul of Italy's North, including: Risotto allo Zafferano Milanese Arista! Arista! Pasta delle Sfogliatrici Pesce in Saor La Salsiccia alla Moda di Lucrezia Borgia Fegato alla Veneziana Carbonada d'Enfer Arvier Pesto di Mandorle e Noci Ferraresi Pollo alla Marengo Cialzons della Famiglia de Galateo Pagnotta di Patate Pasta e Fagioli Sogliole in Gratella Caffe alla Valdostana Tiramisu This remarkable world within a book reflects the honest, authentic tastes of a people for whom food is a cardinal passion. With it in hand, you will perfume your home with the ancient and divine scents of glorious food, calling forth the ineffable essence of this land and its bounty. Let the adventure begin.
