Recipes - Cuisine - Landscape . . .
'My Tuscany' combines a marvellously evocative personal narrative with authentic regional recipes and breathtaking photography. Join Lorenza de'Medici - renowned host of the famous 'The Villa Table' culinary school - on a mouth-watering journey through the picturesque landscape and tantalizing gastronomy of Tuscany, province by province.
Capturing all the magic of the Tuscan spirit, this book includes vivid descriptions of the regional towns and wonderful accounts of local customs and traditions. Of course, special emphasis is given to the "prodotti tipici"- Tuscany's unique culinary treasures.
Along your journey, feast your eyes on the stunning photography of John Ferro Sims. Each photograph captures a special detail about the region or its foods - the changing light of the seasons against the landscape, the passion of the characters who live thee, and the subtle textures and colours of the produce.
This is a book for anyone who has ever visited Tuscany and been enchanted by its landscape, delicacies and people - or for those who simply have a passion for gastronomic adventure. With thirty recipes, specially photographed in Lorenzo's own Siena kitchens, 'My Tuscany' is guaranteed to bring the delicious tastes of Tuscan cooking into your own home.
