Cookbooks

Simple, delicious, authentic food from the great destinations of Italy, by one of the most beloved and best-selling authors in the category.

Americans love Italy: 4 million of us visit every year, and Rome and Florence rank number 1 and 2 of our favorite European cities. We also love Italian food: time and again, it’s rated our favorite international cuisine for home cooking and restaurant dining. In Biba’s Italy, renowned cookbook author and restaurateur Biba Caggiano shows why: here are the very best recipes from our very favorite cities, with travel tips galore on restaurants, bakeries, gelaterie, food markets, and cooking schools. And 100 delicious, simple, satisfying recipes:

* Classics from Rome’s trattorie, such as Veal Scallopine with Prosciutto, Sage, and Wine and Bucatini all’Amatriciana * Florence’s hearty T-Bone alla Fiorentina and rustic Ribollita soup * Irresistible Bolognese ragús and Roast Chicken with Pancetta, Potatoes, and Herbs * Milano’s definitive versions of Osso Buco, Saffron Risotto, and Minestrone * Shellfish Stew from the fish merchants of Venice

This is the food we love, presented with unparalleled authority, evocative atmosphere, and charming personal style: this is truly splendid food from splendid cities, by a splendid author.
