Discover authentic Italian cooking at its finest with this Sicilian recipe book. Here’s what’s inside:

   • More than 70 Sicilian sweet and savory recipes, from Pasta Alla Norma, grilled octopus and Sicilian baked sausage to arancini with tuna, Jerusalem artichokes with black lentils and Sicilian orange bread

Embark on a culinary trip of a lifetime with Sicilian cook, writer and photographer, Cettina Vicenzino.

Bring the food of Sicily to your table with recipes ranging from smoked tuna to pasta with Trapani pesto. This Sicilian cookbook features three strands of Sicilian cooking ― Cucina Povera (peasant food), Cibo di Strada (street food) and Cucina dei Monsù (sophisticated food). It also includes profiles of local chefs and food heroes.

The book is beautifully done. Unfortunately it was damaged in shipment, the spine was broken and it was to be a gift. I understand that due to the virus and the extra demand for deliveries this is bound to happen.

I bought this for someone else, but it is stronger than me and I had to skim through the whole book.

I just love it. A beautiful mix of regional foods and scenic images. The book gives you the urge to cook and to travel OR to travel in order to cook on-location (wishfully).

Am very likely to gift copies to others in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars A joy and an inspiration
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 21, 2023

Maybe not a beginners book because it appears to assume a knowledge, and photos are scattered elsewhere, but I like that approach. It’s a serious book for people serious about Italian regional cooking and it was exactly what I was looking for.
This book will keep me inspired for far longer than a more accessible TV chef type effort.

If you’ve already been cooking for years and have your chops down with Italian food, and know it well and take it seriously, this will be as much a joy to you as it is for me. Another level, and at this price, not worth not having.
Possibly my favourite region too.
Currently my favourite Italian food book and I’d take it over all the others I have, much as I love them still. This is just far deeper in authenticity.
