Gennaro’s Hidden Italy - Gennaro Contaldo

Gennaro’s Hidden Italy - Gennaro Contaldo From the rolling hills of Tuscany to the sun-soaked coasts of Sicily, each page explores the ingredients, landscapes and kitchens that shaped these treasured recipes, many of which are now remembered by only a few Nonnas. Gennaro Contaldo, with his unmatched passion for authentic Italian flavours, guides you through a treasure trove of lost recipes that were on the verge of fading into history. Organised by region (Central, North, Islands, and South), discover dishes that once formed the heart of family gatherings: humble pasta variations, vibrant sauces, and comforting classics. From Pope’s Pasta and Medieval Pancakes to Assassin’s Spaghetti, Courgettes with Amaretti, Sweet and Savoury Ravioli, Chestnut Pudding and even Watermelon Jelly – each captures the true spirit of Italy. Filled with Gennaro’s warm anecdotes and culinary wisdom, this book is a heartfelt homage to his homeland – celebrating tradition, preserving culture, and serving up Italy’s stories one irresistible bite at a time.
