Synopsis: Italy and its wonderful flavors have always had a major influence on Jamie Olivers food and cooking. In Jamies Italy, he travels this famously gastronomic country paying homage to the classic dishes of each region and searching for new ideas to bring home. The result is a sensational collection of Italian recipes, old and new, that will ensure that Italys influence reaches us all. Italy has inspired Jamie Oliver throughout his career. His ambition has always been to travel across the country on a quest to capture the very essence of Italian cooking -- and to produce the best and simplest Italian cookbook for everybody anywhere to enjoy. Jamies Italy is the result of that journey -- and its a land of plenty. As well as providing more than 120 brand-new recipes for everything from risotto to roasts and spaghetti to stews, structured as traditional trattoria menus, Jamie takes you all over Italy to cook with and learn from the real masters of Italian cuisine: the locals. Far from the standard lemons and olives version of Italian cooking, Jamies Italy is a cookbook by the people for the people. From Sicily to Tuscany, its about the local fishermen, family bakers, and, of course, the Mamas, sharing their recipes and the tips that have gone into their cooking for generations. But its not only mouthwatering food that Jamie brings back home: its also the spirit that makes cooking and eating absolutely central to family life, whichever part of Italy youre in. Bursting with the warmth and hospitality of real family life, this is both asuperbly accessible cookbook and a unique travelogue and diary, in which youll find the authentic flavor of Italy and the people who live there. If you love quality food prepared with genuine passion -- youll never want to leave Jamies Italy.
