More About This Book

Overview

The culinary journey that began with Umbria and Veneto, has arrived in the eternal city of Rome and its surrounding region of Latium. In Roma, Julia della Croce ventures from coast to countryside to reveal over 60 cherished recipes passed from generation to generation in this region rich with culinary tradition. While the area surrounding Rome exhibits both the traditions of the Greeks and the culinary refinements of the Etruscans, each of the five Roman provinces has maintained its own culture and culinary character. From the fresh seafood in the coastal province of Latina; to the rustic aged meats and sturdy cooking of the most northerly province of Rieti; to the simple, seasonal dishes of Viterbo known for its aromatic olive oils; to the handmade pastas and rich, savory meat sauces of the landlocked Frosinone province; and finally to the lusty cooking of Rome itself, this collection beautifully captures the authentic tastes of this region's legendary food. Della Croce also lists her favorite places to stay, fun and historical local festivals, and where to find authentic regional Italian cooking and wine classes for those planning a Roman adventure.

    Dig In!

    By Bill Marsano. What luck: Only about a year ago we got Jo Bettoja's 'In an Italian Kitchen,' and now we have Julia della Croce's own book on the cooking of Rome and its region, Lazio. Two in one year may go a ways toward correcting the imbalance currently favoring the rather over-rated cuisine of Tuscany. (It's fine, really, but it is NOT the be-all and end-all.) So welcome to the feast! Roman cooking is rustic and robust, hearty and strongly flavored. The Romans are great carnivores, so meat recipes abound, but they are also, unlike some other Italians, devoted to fresh vegetables; thus there are plenty of 'contorni' or side dishes. The old favorites are here of course--saltimbocca and spaghetti all'amatriciana; trout in parchment and bruschetta (which, by the way, is pronounced 'broo-SKET-ta,' not 'bruh-shedda,' as on TV), but there are unusual and little-known recipes as well, such as farro and cabbage soup, beef stew with cloves, and tomato-braised lobster. Many of the very simple recipes date from the fall of Rome, when togaed dandies, conquered by the barbarians, had to give up their over-refined cuisine and eat the plain food of shepherds and farmers. The recipes are clearly written and legibly presented, one to a page. And there are plenty of handsome photographs to summon the atmosphere of Roma herself. There are more than recipes here, however. Della Croce, a good writer with a warm and generous spirit, approaches writing a cookbook as if she were an archeologist on an expedition; she digs deep to uncover and dust off aspects of the culture behind the cookery; she opens the door and welcomes you in. She seasons her text with old proverbs and dialect sayings, and quotations from ancient cookbooks, histories, plays and poems--just the sort of things that draw you into the richly textured culture that the photographs evoke.--Bill Marsano is an award-winning writer on wine and spirits, travel and other subjects.
