Travelling Italy isnt just about the sights, its also about the food. For centuries, Italy has cultivated some of the worlds finest produce, from plump tomatoes to nutty parmesan and velvety bottles of wine. Its a country that revolves around mealtimes, and no visit is complete without experiencing these culinary traditions.
Mangia guides us through Italys 20 regions, sharing the cuisine that defines each. Learn about their food histories and produce, discover what dishes to try (along with what drinks to pair them with), and learn about culinary festivals and experiences.
You dont have to travel to the boot to try its food, though: Every chapter includes a recipe for readers to experience a bite of Italy in their own kitchens, written by chefs who run some of the worlds best kitchens.
In Italy, its all about la dolce vita, and theres nothing that captures that better than a full table full of food.
Maria Pasquale always knew Rome was her destiny. With a formal background in political science and history, she is now an award-winning food and travel writer and journalist and contributes regularly to USA Today, CNN, Cond Nast and The Telegraph.
