Description
Recipes from Sicily is a culinary exploration of this well-loved Italian island.
Join husband and wife team Giancarlo and Katie Caldesi as they head to the island of Sicily to delve into its diverse food scene through more than 90 delicious recipes.
Starting in the capital, Palermo, the couple come across some exciting street food that features tasty Arancini (rice balls stuffed with meat sauce and cheese) and Sfincione, a thick Sicilian pizza topped with tomatoes, onions, anchovies and caciocavallo cheese.
Heading to Noto, almonds feature in some of Italy’s most memorable desserts including a classic Semifreddo and a refreshing Almond Granita (served with fresh brioche, for dunking). No Sicilian book would be complete without Pasta Alla Norma (pasta with tomatoes and eggplants) and the classic, ricotta-filled sweet delight Cannoli.
Set against the backdrop of breathtaking photographs of the islands and Katie’s anecdotes of their travels, Recipes from Sicily is a stunning cookbook and visual feast of one of Italy’s most amazing destinations.
