  • Galaxy Guides

    To my delight this is not just another thrown together cookbook after someone has spent two weeks in a village but a culmination of a lifetime of Northern Italian culture and cooking.

Publishers Text

The culinary heart and soul of the beautiful and culturally fascinating Piemonte region of northwest Italy—from Crissini con le Noci to Fritatta Gialla e Verde, and from tiny countryside trattorias to opulent Torino cafes—is explored in this alluring account that is equal parts memoir, local history, and recipe collection. Located between France, Switzerland, and the eastern portion of Italy, the area is home to some of the world's best produce. Secrets of the agriculturally rich Po Valley and tales of the spectacular capital of Torino are coupled with anecdotes about friends, family, and the importance of preparing and sharing good, quality food. Vivid color photographs further illustrate the splendor of the region.
