Valentina Harris-the renowned author of Risotto! Risotto! and a leader in the burgeoning slow food movement-shows how to bring real pleasure back to the table through simple home cooking with good, seasonal ingredients that are produced as locally as possible. The dishes themselves, while easy to prepare, showcase luscious Italian fare that everyone will love and want to linger over-among them: Torta Margherita, Focaccia Ripiena, Farinata, Timballo di Pasta, and Cassata. These are recipes to relax into and enjoy making as much as eating! From Publishers Weekly Another entry in the casual Italian category, this volume is filled with easy-eating staples like Tortellini in Broth, Calzone with Tomato Sauce and Roasted Chicken with Black Olives. Harris, however, is a stickler for doing things the old-fashioned way, so those tortellini are hand-rolled, the calzone dough is hand-mixed, and that roasted chicken has a hand-ground garlic and herb paste slipped between its skin and flesh. What makes this book unique, however, are several British variations on Italian cuisine sprinkled throughout. Stuffed Potatoes, an English office-lunch favorite, are here Italianized with garlic, parmesan and Luganega sausage. Semolina Gnocchi with Smoked Salmon, meanwhile, tastes more of Glasgow than Florence. Most unusual of all, Kedgeree All'Italiana turns an English breakfast classic into a curious version of salade nicoise filled with olives, tuna and hard-boiled eggs. Finally, the dessert selections betray that famous English sweet tooth; listed under the heading \"puddings,\" several recipes call for thick custard sauces or layers of cream. One is unlikely to find these selections on a visit to, say, Sorrento, which doesn't mean they're not delicious-just a bit of a surprise.Copyright  Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
