Lidia's
Italian Table is overflowing with glorious Italian food, highlighted
by Lidia's personal collection of recipes accumulated since her
childhood in Istria, located in northern Italy on the Adriatic
Sea. Hearty and heartwarming Italian fare is what Lidia understands
best, and each chapter of this gorgeous cookbook is infused with
Lidia's warm memories of a lifetime of eating and cooking Italian
food.
Since good Italian food is based on good ingredients,
Lidia includes an eloquent discourse on those products that are
the cornerstones
of Italian cuisine. She also explains the importance of regional
wines and grappa (in flavors from honey to dried fig) in the Italian
food experience.
Lidia explores every corner of Italian cuisine,
from fresh and dry pasta to gnocchi and risotto to game and shellfish,
all of which
Lidia transforms into exceptional Italian dishes. But that is only
the beginning. There are Italian soups to savor, and Lidia's luscious
dolci, or desserts.
This gastronomic adventure is more than just
a cookbook: it is an exploration into the heart of Italian cuisine.
