Tuscany has much to offer beyond the beauty of its landscape and its Renaissance splendour. Many Tuscans still make their own olive oil and wine, smoke their own ham and sausage, and the landscape is dotted with patches of fruit and vegetables. The Tuscan cuisine's emphasis is on healthy and authentic dishes, using the simplest ingredients that come from the land. Bread and pasta are home-made, meat comes from the local butcher and vegetables and herbs are freshly picked. The recipes in the book include inslata di fagioli, a salad of haricot beans coated in olive oil, zampone e lenticchie, a traditional dish of pig's trotters and lentils and castagnaccio and a light and sweet cake made of local chestnut flour. The book includes photographs of the Tuscan people, their landscape and their food.
