The Italian Table delivers both parts of the fantasy and reality of Italian
meals as they would be eaten on location. Combining menus and recipes with
visual experience and inspiration--as well as insight into the traditions of the
food and celebrations--it serves as a practical resource that gives home cooks
and hosts step-by-step guidance on how to re-create these fabulous meals at
their own tables. Menus and recipes include: Eating in the Market in Florence
with Coward's Spaghetti and Pappa al Pomodoro; A Sunday Lunch in Emilia-Romagna
with Ricotta and Swiss Chard Tortelli, Vegetable Pie, and Stuffed Pork Roast;
and A Table by the Sea in Positano
