A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Claudia Roden was born and brought up in Cairo. She went to school in Paris for three years and came to London to study art at St. Martin’s. Her parents left Egypt in 1956 after the Suez crisis and as a result of the war with Israel, and the family settled in London. She has three grown-up children and three grandchildren.

Claudia started writing about Middle Eastern food in the 1960s as a way of recovering a lost heritage as well as delicious foods. She has worked as a ‘gastronomic foreign correspondent’ for several newspapers and run cookery courses at her home. This book is based on the ‘Taste of Italy’ articles which were featured in the Sunday Times. She has been awarded many prestigious prizes including four Glenfidditch Awards and several other international prizes. Her other books include Coffee, Picnic, A Book of Middle Eastern Food, Mediterranean Cookery (the subject of her BBC TV series), The Book of Jewish Food – An Odyssey from Samarkand and Vilna to the Present Day and Claudia Roden’s Invitation to Mediterranean Cooking – 150 Vegetarian and Seafood Recipes. Claudia Roden lives in London.

Quatrième de couverture :

'My favourite cookbook is Claudia Roden's The Food of Italy. Her writing is wonderful and she is incredibly thorough. I love this book in particular.'

RUSSELL NORMAN, POLPO

'The Food of Italy has been the first resource for anyone interested in the subject since it was first published, and is the still the first place I turn.'

JACOB KENNEDY, BOCCA DI LUPO

'Claudia Roden's The Food of Italy is one of the most used and loved books on our bookshelf. Her knowledge and understanding of the regions and their food and culture makes this one of the most authentic of all Italian cookbooks.'

RUTH ROGERS AND ROSE GRAY, THE RIVER CAFE

'Roden's great gift is to conjure up not just a cuisine but the culture from which it springs.'
