Publishers Text

When a young girl and her family move from Sicily to rural Australia, it is a surprisingly small step in kitchen miles. The tablecloth and stockpot are the same, cardoons and fennel still grow wild on the roadside, and the extended family and neighbours gather to make salami in the barn once a year. Rosa Mitchell's food is very special: soulful, traditional, family-orientated, and utterly authentic. Her thoughts on life, both Australian and Sicilian, are scattered among the recipes like biscotti crumbs. Chapters offer recipes for antipasto, soup, pasta, meat dishes, vegetables, and desserts. The recipes are complemented by stunning photography of both finished dishes and from throughout the preparation process, be that the making of salami the traditional way or the preparation of fresh cannelloni. Gorgeous illustrations and family photographs complete the book.
