In Italy, there is no such thing as Italian food, rather there are local cookery traditions. Thus, when in Rome, you will be given Roman food, in Sicily you will be given the food of the island.
The 'Sicily' title in the 'Flavours Of Italy' series features delicious recipes for antipasti, first courses, pizzas and breads, second courses, vegetables and desserts. From baked peppers and caponata to ribbon noodle dishes, from swordfish with lemon to stuffed beef, game dishes and recipes for casseroles of lamb and kid, through to homemade cassata ice cream and fruity cakes and biscuits - there is something here for all tastes. Thematic spreads on local feast days, wine, cheese, herbs and more, bring alive the history and cookery traditions of Sicily - surely Italy's best kept culinary secret.
