TRAMONTANA: NORTHERN ITALIAN RECIPES FROM SEA TO SUMMIT (HB)

A culinary journey through Italy’s northwest – from the sunlit coastlines of Liguria to the snow-capped peaks of Aosta. Following the ancient salt trading routes that wind inland from the Mediterranean, Simon Bajada uncovers a rich and surprising tapestry of regional food culture, where fresh, delicate coastal dishes give way to the buttery, hearty fare of the mountains. Along the way, readers will discover focaccia and farinata, walnut sauce pasta and veal agnolotti, chestnut gnocchi and cheese-laced polenta – each recipe a reflection of the terrain, history and soul of the region.
