For some, it’s even as important as the air they breathe. This is why classic, homemade Italian food is incomparable to any other in the world. Its richness of taste belies its apparent simplicity, and it’s all down to the superior quality of those timeless, key elements that truly makes traditional Italian cooking so flavourful.
Originale is not just another recipe book. It is, in essence, a guide. A manual on how to do it like the Italians. The dozens of inspiring recipes within these pages are built from a handful of crucial ingredients that, if sourced correctly—as detailed in this book—can transport you directly to the kitchens of Rome, Naples, or Bologna via your own plate. Originale is lovingly curated to celebrate the enduring nature of Italian cuisine, its history, and culture. Buon appetito!
