The Food Of Italy by Claudia Roden

Claudia Roden researched The Food of Italy travelling throughout the country for over a year taking in both city and countryside. From simple and rustic to grand bravura, these recipes represent traditional regional dishes as they are cooked today in Italy. Claudia Roden presents them against a backdrop of the story of their regions and their people.
Claudia Roden was born and brought up in Cairo. She went to school in Paris for three years and came to London to study art at St. Martin's. Her parents left Egypt in 1956 after the Suez crisis and as a result of the war with Israel, and the family settled in London. She has three grown-up children and three grandchildren. Claudia started writing about Middle Eastern food in the 1960s as a way of recovering a lost heritage as well as delicious foods. She has worked as a 'gastronomic foreign correspondent' for several newspapers and run cookery courses at her home. This book is based on the 'Taste of Italy' articles which were featured in the Sunday Times. She has been awarded many prestigious prizes including four Glenfidditch Awards and several other international prizes.
