Summary:

"If you are one of the millions of people who love Italian food in all its glorious regional variety, then this is the book for you. Italianissimo was created entirely in Florence, Italy by a team of Italian chefs and food writers. It brings you more than 600 recipes for everything from appetizers to desserts. Let our team invite you right into their own kitchens, where you'll learn to make everything, from superb antipasti and snacks, such as crostini, focaccia, and frittelle, to divine primi piatti, like risotto, ravioli, gnocchi, and polenta, as well as a host of classic and modern seafood, meat, vegetable, and dessert dishes. At the heart of the Mediterranean tradition, Italian food is based on olive oil, seafood, grains, fresh fruit and vegetables, legumes, and small amounts of red and white meats, all of which are enjoyed with a daily glass of wine. So not only is the food mouthwateringly good, it is also good for you. Here you will find all the inspiration you will ever need to create fabulous and healthy food for your friends and family on every occasion. It's almost as good as being there!" -- Book Jacket
