Feast your eyes on this opulent, oversized, 400-page journey into Italian cuisine! The wide variety of flavors within this book makes indulging in even just one page a delicious experience to behold. Readers will have access to Italian recipes from all regions, mouthwatering illustrations, and lively infographics. From a map of Italy's beautiful cheeses to a guide for gathering grapes, from a step-by-step guide to making homemade pizza to an illustrated presentation of olives for every occasion, the poster-sized pages in this book (each spread measures 19"x13") provide readers with everything they need to make and enjoy authentic Italian fare. Gift this to a foodie, and hope they thank you by making you some homemade focaccia! (Sorry, no rush shipping.) (HC)
