Italy, The Country With A Hundred Cities And A Thousand Bell Towers, Is Also The Country With A Hundred Cuisines And A Thousand Recipes. Its Great Variety Of Culinary Practices Reflects A History Long Dominated By Regionalism And Political Division, And Has Led To The Common Conception Of Italian Food As A Mosaic Of Regional Customs Rather Than A Single Tradition.

They Show How Italy'S Culinary Identities Emerged Over The Course Of The Centuries Through An Exchange Of Information And Techniques Among Geographical Regions And Social Classes. Though Temporally, Spatially, And Socially Diverse, These Cuisines Refer To A Common Experience That Can Be Described As Italian. Thematically Organized Around Key Issues In Culinary History And Beautifully Illustrated, Italian Cuisine Is A Rich History Of The Ingredients, Dishes, Techniques, And Social Customs Behind The Italian Food We Know And Love Today.
