Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Not only is this the story of producing such gastronomic pleasures as beef steak and white truffles, it is also a chronicle of the industriousness, secrets, and generosity of these Italian producers, chefs, farmers, and growers. Enhanced by tales of visits (along with addresses and phone numbers) to local restaurants specializing in turning ingredients into culinary delights, Anderson's book pays a creative tribute to the art and craft of Italy's best foodstuffs. Barbara Jacobs

Treasuring Slow Food,
By A Customer
This review is from: Treasures of the Italian Table (Hardcover)
A wonderful book, written with wit and intelligence about the beauty of Italian food and what is in danger of being lost to the homogeneous world of the EU. I encourage anyone to take the book with you as a guide to Italy and, if possible, to plan your trip around it. It is also a great book to give to the cook that has everything!
