Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean and boasts buzzing markets, stunning beaches and, most importantly, food to die for. Discover this island paradise with authors Katie and Giancarlo Caldesi as they unearth a dazzling array of local recipes that will reinvigorate your passion for Italian food. Thanks to its rich history, Sicilian food has Italian, Greek, Spanish, French and Arab influences, making the flavours and ingredients wonderfully eclectic. From the world-famous street food in Palermo, to the almond-based desserts in Noto, as well as tasty couscous and rice dishes, this is Italian food at its best. For weeknights, Katie and Giancarlo have written a selection of versatile recipes that are quick to make and taste delicious: whip up a Griddled Mackerel with Caponata, master the art of making Parmigiana, and learn how a batch of fresh Pistachio Pesto can transform a variety of meals - from pasta to a humble slice of toast. If you have time to spend on showstoppers, there are ragus, homemade pastas and breads (including gluten-free), and desserts that will satisfy just about any sweet tooth. Journey with Katie and Giancarlo as they marvel at the Arab domes and arches, Byzantine mosaics, baroque stucco work and Norman palace walls of this glorious location. Recipes from Sicily is a stunning cookbook celebrating one of Italy's most amazing destinations.
