    Scarpaccia/ savory zucchini bread- easy & delicious. I think I will mix more of the cheese into the filling next time because I wanted a little more seasoning inside. There are so many recipes in this book that look amazing!

    pg 116 Piadina Romagnola con Mortadella, Ricotta e Pistachio. I don't know what Piadina is like with the potatoes, but I did appreciate how foldable the bread was. The filling of ricotta, mortadella, and pistachio was wonderful - pistachios belong everywhere, including in a sandwich and the ricotta held them in place. Definitely a repeatable sandwich - even open faced or on other breads.

In Italian cuisine, there is an entire category of smaller bites—spuntini—meant to be enjoyed at in-between meal moments of the day. This book by Italian food expert Anna Francese Gass introduces the American audience to the complete range of spuntini culture, with recipes drawn from all across the country. She shares recipes for spuntini di meta mattina (mid-morning snacks); merenda, the cherished after-school treat for children (and adults); and aperitivi, early-evening bites meant to be enjoyed with drinks. Also included is a chapter of delicacies from Italy’s robust culture of street food. Studded with gorgeous photography, this book will elevate your snacking game to the Italian ideal.
