Reviews for The Food of Italy
Timeless... Completely approachable for home cooks
Daily Telegraph
So much more than a catch-all Italian cookbook. Claudia's writing puts the romance back into ubiquitous dishes such as panzanella and bolognese, and gives context to classic flavour combinations and techniques we take for granted... It's time to fall back in love with Italian mama food, guided by the mama of cookery writing and food anthropology
Eve O'Sullivan
Guardian
Claudia’s erudite style remains as compelling as ever
Waitrose Kitchen
The writing is peerless, the recipes as meticulous as you would expect from perhaps the planet’s finest food writer
Observer
A glorious feast of a book, a splendid history, geography and cookery lesson rolled into one
Financial Times
Claudia Roden's Food of Italy is one of the most used and loved books on our book shelf. Her knowledge and understanding of the regions and their food and culture makes this one of the most authentic of all Italian cookbooks
