Reviews" Recipes from an Italian Summer were created by the people who brought us The Silver Spoon series. The book is designed by Phaidon's Sonya Dyakova and the layout is pleasingly minimal with satisfyingly clean lines and understated typography. Food shots are by the excellent Andy Sewell and the suitably beautiful landscapes of Italy are by Joel Meyerowitz. As with all the best cookery books, it functions well as a collection of recipes, but even if you're a total stranger to the inside of a saucepan it still makes for a very good read. It's food porn with class."-- Grafik magazine "Luscious."-- Daily Telegraph "The kind of book to make you instantly emigrate... The beautiful photography and exquisite dishes [...] had us reaching for our passports."-- Sunday Telegraph "Crammed full of mouth-watering authentic dishes and evocative pictures of food and sun-drenched landscapes."-- Elle Decoration "Beautifully presented in an imaginative style, and perfect for anyone who is passionate about Italian cuisine... The chapters reflect the Italian style of summer eating perfectly... In addition, the book includes sections about Italian food festivals to inspire your future visits, plus a seasonal food calendar so you can always ensure fresh ingredients to indulge your love of Italian food. An indispensable gem for your kitchen every summer."-- Italia!, "Recipes from an Italian Summerwere created by the people who brought us The Silver Spoonseries.

An indispensable gem for your kitchen every summer."--Italia!, "Most cuisines have delicious ways of using summer's bounty, but Italian food, as the editors of this pretty and expansive recipe collection assert, is ideally eaten in the warmest season. The authors of the bestselling compendium of Italian cookery The Silver Spoon have returned with a collection of warm weather dishes that emphasize simple flavors and minimal ingredients. In addition to recipes, the book covers the vacation regions of Italy, the hundreds of food festivals held every summer around the country, and a calendar of seasonal ingredients. Chapters reflect the way people tend to eat in summer: Picnics; Salads; Barbecues; Light Lunches; and Suppers. The provisions are both appealing and richly varied: rustic vegetable pies or potatoes in aluminum foil with assorted fillings are certain to dress up anyone's summer repertoire. Dishes like mozzarella caprese and peaches with zabaglione will seem familiar to readers while others, such as casatiello, a bread ring stuffed with salami and cheese, or lettuce with skate and walnuts, have a hint of the exotic. As with its predecessor, the editors keep the directions short and sweet, and a certain degree of kitchen familiarity is assumed. Interspersed throughout are beautifully evocative photos that might tempt some readers to put down the spoon and head for the airport."-- Publisher's Weekly
