Following on from the success of "Two Greedy Italians", Antonio Carluccio and Gennaro Contaldo now embark on a journey to explore Italy's distinct and varied terrains, to find out how these have shaped the produce and, in turn, the peoples and their traditions.
They venture into the Alps for comfort food - those heart-warming dishes based around the use of butter, potatoes, polenta and rice. They head to the sea to uncover the many delicious fish and shellfish dishes emanating from this magnificent peninsula, as well as the distinctive cuisine of the Italian islands. Finally, they examine the rich agricultural plains through which flow some of the greatest rivers in Europe - in particular the Po in the north and the Tiber in the centre. Containing over 80 mouth-watering recipes and breathtaking photography from David Loftus, this book showcases the wisdom and passion of these two men for their native land, its people and produce.
