Manuelli, Sara.

Cucina Romana / Sara Manuelli. - 159 p. : col. ill. ; 24 cm.

Includes index.

"Born and raised in Rome, Sara Manuelli reveals its gastronomic secrets: the tiny restaurants tucked away on side streets and frequented religiously by locals, the specialty shops selling gourmet ingredients and artisan produce. This is the ultimate guide to Rome, illustrated with photographs of Sara's favorite Roman people and places." "Each chapter introduces an area of Rome, its restaurants, food, markets and people. Once a Jewish ghetto, the Ghetto e Isola Tiberina, for example is the home of specialty restaurants and ingredients that recall ancient Roman-Jewish culinary influences." "Each area of Rome is accompanied by a selection of recipes from the local restaurants - simple dishes that make the most of the ingredients like vine-ripened tomatoes, legumes, pancetta, lamb, artichokes, mozzarella, and fresh egg pasta."--BOOK JACKET.
