Love Italian Food by Maddalena Caruso
Maddalena Caruso's stunning Italian home provides the backdrop for this supremely beautiful guide to seasonal Italian food and a relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. Love Italian Food follows the course of the year from spring to winter, with each season sub-divided thematically. The Spring chapter consists of Spring Cooking, Asparagus and Lunch with Roses; Summer features include Kitchen Garden, Figs and Sunny Summer Colour; Autumn is divided into Garden Harvest, Autumn Comfort, Vineyard Picnic, Pomegranates and Jam Session; Winter brings Cosy Celebration with Friends, Radicchio, All Sorts of Cabbages and Sunday Brunch. Throughout, the sumptuous reportage-style photography transports the reader to a world where family and friends come together to enjoy the bounty of the seasons. They may be sitting al fresco enjoying the first warmth of the sun's spring rays, gathered at a table set in the middle of the herb garden in summer, entertaining a crowd in the orchard at harvest time, or seated round a table glowing with candles for a cosy winter celebration. Wherever they are and at whatever time of year, readers are invited to join them.
'A must for those looking to emulate the Mediterranean lifestyle' Retirement Today 'Blue Italian Skies won't feel far away with this beautifully photographed recipe book from young chef Maddalena Caruso. Caruso concentrates on the fres seasonable bounty of the Italian countryside, from asparagus in spring and figs in summer to pomegranates and jam in autumn and radicchio in winter.' The Simple Things
Maddalena Caruso lives with her husband and son in Asolo, in the province of Treviso, north-west of Venice, where she has spent much of her life. She studied for a diploma at the prestigious Glion Institute of Higher Education in Switzerland and has also lived in Paris. Maddalena credits the fact that she never saw either her mother or grandmother anywhere near an oven with her inspiration to explore her passion for cooking. She believes the language of food is the most immediate and direct way with which to spread happiness and joy, and the language through which she would prefer people to know her. Maddalena also writes a blog that includes numerous marvellous recipes (www.maddalenacaruso.com) and has featured in Italian publications including Case & Country, L'espresso, Elle a table and Monsieur. Stefano Scata is an internationally acclaimed food and interiors photographer who has won many honours for his work, including the ADUTEI (Association of Official Representatives of Tourism in Italy) prize for best photographer. Producing stunning food photography in locations all around the world, he and Maddalena have built up a unique creative partnership over the years.
