The Food of Italy cover

THE FOOD OF ITALY was written after Claudia Roden spent a year in Italy researching the subject. Regional recipes, country cooking, the bravura of grand dishes; pasta, seafood, rice dishes and authentic Italian desserts; Claudia Roden's encyclopedic knowledge of her subject infuses a rich and stunning book.

Timeless... Completely approachable for home cooks * Daily Telegraph *
So much more than a catch-all Italian cookbook. Claudia's writing puts the romance back into ubiquitous dishes such as panzanella and bolognese, and gives context to classic flavour combinations and techniques we take for granted... It's time to fall back in love with Italian mama food, guided by the mama of cookery writing and food anthropology -- Eve O'Sullivan * Guardian *
Claudia’s erudite style remains as compelling as ever * Waitrose Kitchen *
The writing is peerless, the recipes as meticulous as you would expect from perhaps the planet’s finest food writer * Observer *
A glorious feast of a book, a splendid history, geography and cookery lesson rolled into one * Financial Times *
