Passion on the Vine: A Memoir of Food, Wine, and Family in the Heart of Italy
by Sergio Esposito Justine Van Der LeunAs a young child in Naples, Italy, Sergio Esposito sat at his kitchen table observing the daily ritual of his large, loud family bonding over fresh local dishes and simple country wines. While devouring the richbufalamozzarella, still sopping with milk and salt, and the platters of fresh prosciutto, sliced so thin he could see through it, he absorbed the profound relationship of food, wine, and family in Italian culture. Growing up in Albany, New York, after emigrating there with his family, he always sat next to his uncle Aldo and sipped from his wineglass during their customary hours-long extended family feasts. Thus, from a very early age, Esposito came to associate wine with the warmth of family, the tastes of his mother's cooking--and, above all, memories of his former life in Italy. When he was in his twenties, he headed for New York and undertook a career in wine, beginning a journey that would culminate in his founding of Italian Wine Merchants, now the leading Italian wine source in America. His career offered him the opportunity to make frequent trips back to Italy to find wine for his clients, to learn the traditions of Italian winemaking, and, in so doing, to rediscover the Italian way of life he'd left behind. Passion on the Vineis Esposito's intimate and evocative memoir of his colorful family life in Italy, his abrupt transition to life in America, and of his travels into the heart of Italy--its wine country--and the lives of those who inhabit it. The result is a remarkably engaging and entertaining wine/travel narrative replete with vivid portraits of seductive places--the world-famous cellars of Piedmont, the sweeping estates of Tuscany, the lush fields of Campania, the chilly hills of Friuli, the windy beaches of Le Marche; and of memorable people, diverse and vibrant wine artisans--from a disco-dancing vintner who bases his farming on the rhythm of the moon to an obsessive prince who destroys his vineyards before his death so that his grapes will never be used incorrectly. Esposito's luscious accounts of the wonderful food and wine that are so much a part of Italian life, and his poignant and often hilarious stories of his relationships with his family and Italian friends, makePassion on the Vinean utterly unique and enchanting work about Italy and its eternally seductive lifestyle.

Pasta Grannies
by Vicky BennisonLAS MEJORES RECETAS DE PASTA DE LAS ABUELAS ITALIANAS. En las cocinas de toda Italia, las abuelas o nonne preparan platos tradicionales de pasta fresca para toda la familia, tal como lo hicieron sus madres y sus abuelas, generación tras generación. Para una nonna, el amor consiste en poner comida sobre la mesa, y la pasta es el medio perfecto para que los ingredientes más valiosos cundan más. Durante un viaje de investigación por Italia, Vicky Bennison advirtió que ese talento culinario no se estaba transmitiendo a las generaciones más jóvenes, un vacío que la llevó a crear Pasta Grannies, un canal de YouTube que ha causado sensación y ha cosechado un éxito rotundo. Desde los ñoquis con queso y mantequilla de las montañas del norte hasta las salsas a base de tomate de la huerta servidas con pasta nudosa y retorcida del soleado sur, cada nonna tiene su propia receta especial. Pasta grannies reúne la enorme diversidad y riqueza de esas elaboraciones perfeccionadas por el tiempo, a la vez que celebra la maestría, la vida y las historias de las fascinantes mujeres que hay detrás de ellas. La crítica ha dicho...«Desde la suavidad de los ñoquis en el norte hasta las orechiette en el sur, ésta es la crónica de una forma de vida, además de un libro de cocina. Encantador.»The Daily Telegraph «Pasta grannies no sólo trata de comida deliciosa, sino que contiene también historias extraordinarias. Completado con una abundante sazón de memoria gastronómica, este libro es un hermoso homenaje a las abuelas, sus experiencias y el arte perdido de la elaboración de la pasta.»Stylist «Un libro excelente que incluye platos creados por las abuelas de todas las regiones de Italia.»The Times

Pasta, Pane, Vino: Deep Travels Through Italy's Food Culture (Roads And Kingdoms Presents Ser.)
by Matt Goulding“Italy is a beautiful but complicated place, not so much a country as a collection of cultures and cuisines. Matt Goulding expertly navigates it’s wonders and eccentricities with wisdom and great passion.” -Anthony Bourdain "Goulding is pioneering a new type of writing about food." -Financial Times This is not a cookbook. This is something more: a travelogue, a patient investigation of Italy’s cuisine, a loving profile of the everyday heroes who bring Italy to the table.

Town by town, bite by bite, author Matt Goulding brings Italy to life through intimate portraits of its food culture and the people pushing it in new directions: Three globe-trotting brothers who became the mozzarella kings of Puglia; the pizza police of Naples and the innovative pies that stay one step ahead of the rules; the Barolo Boys who turned the hilly Piedmont into one of the world’s great wine regions.Goulding’s writing has never been better, in complete harmony with the book's innovative design and the more than 200 lush color photographs that introduce the chefs, shepherds, fisherman, farmers, grandmas, and guardians who power this country’s extraordinary culinary traditions. From the pasta temples of Rome to the multicultural markets of Sicily to the family-run, fish-driven trattorias of Lake Como, Pasta, Pane, Vino captures the breathtaking diversity of Italian regional food culture.
