By Beth Elon
Each of the ten itineraries in this cookbook/guidebook takes readers through parts of Tuscany that still remain largely undiscovered—and into the kitchens of more than fifty restaurants whose cooks reveal their most authentic recipes. In addition to 100 recipes, also included are descriptions and contact information for restaurants, trattorie, gourmet shops, wineries, olive oil producers, local markets, and regional food festivals, and how to find the monasteries, workshops, and artisans' studios that offer local items ranging from herbal beauty products to traditional ceramics and hand-woven linens. 320 pp
What Beth Elon has given us is not only a detailed and practical cookbook but also a traveler's guide—and a love letter to a place and a way of living. This is great food writing in the spirit of Elizabeth David.—Joan Didion
Beth Elon not only tastes Tuscany, she savors every flavor, turns down every enticing road, and joyously reveals her long, profound, and continuing appreciation of this place of endless pleasures. — Frances Mayes
