Umbria by Patricia Clough Pdf

When Patricia Clough, a former foreign correspondent, bought a house in Umbria, she knew that buying her dream home did not mean that life would become a dream. By the end of this book, in which she describes the journey of making Umbria her home, she is sure that “if one has basic requirements for being happy, then Umbria provides some of the best surroundings for happiness.” Clough pores over Umbria's enchanting countryside, its tumultuous history, its ancient culture and sumptuous food, and laments that for a long time Umbria was mistaken for its fashionable neighbor, Tuscany. This is not a guide to buying a home in Italy, nor a guidebook for your holiday—though it would be useful as both of these things—but a story in which a woman discovers and marvels at the place she begins to call home.

SIMPOSIO | Italian Recipes, Travel, and Culture by Claudia Rinaldi Pdf

Ciao, benvenuti in Umbria, welcome to Umbria, Italy. The central region of Italy, the land of fairytales, religious fervor, jazz festivals, and nourishing food. A land to live slowly, letting nature, flavors, legends, ancient celebrations, history, and wine inebriate you. Simposio, in the guise of a travel guide, will accompany you through some - slow traveling means having to choose - of Umbria's towns. You will explore Perugia, Gubbio, Orvieto, Spoleto, Montefalco, Norcia, and Scheggino. Of each, you will take home a story, a personage, a sentiment, or an experience. Of all, you will discover the flavors of their traditional cuisine and the beauty of their alleys. Set your mind to the fairytale mood. As always, we will cross the line of reality. We will enjoy the foggy dimension of maybe and the fun state of why not. Italy's heritage is made of this: ancient beliefs, uncertain origins, the merging of cultures, and breathtaking results. Get ready for the cookbook part and feast over chestnuts and beans, chicken and duck, peasant's cuisine and truffles, sausages, and seasonal vegetables. Get ready to sip wine wrapped in a mantel, facing a bonfire, waiting to see angels pass, or witches, or griffons. Get ready to witness Etruria merging into Middle Ages, the sixties avant-garde into modern jazz, and religious fever into everyday life. Get ready for Umbria! Claudia

Eating My Way Through Italy by Elizabeth Minchilli Pdf

A cultural and culinary celebration of everything that makes Italian cuisine great, from Rome’s resident gastronomic expert After a lifetime of living and eating in Rome, Elizabeth Minchilli is an expert on the city's cuisine. While she’s proud to share everything she knows about Rome, she now wants to show her devoted readers that the rest of Italy is a culinary treasure trove just waiting to be explored. Far from being a monolithic gastronomic culture, each region of Italy offers its own specialties. While fava beans mean one thing in Rome, they mean an entirely different thing in Puglia. Risotto in a Roman trattoria? Don’t even consider it. Visit Venice and not eat cichetti? Unthinkable. Eating My Way Through Italy, celebrates the differences in the world’s favorite cuisine. Divided geographically, Eating My Way Through Italy looks at all the different aspects of Italian food culture. Whether it’s pizza in Naples, deep fried calamari in Venice, anchovies in Amalfi, an elegant dinner in Milan, gathering and cooking capers on Pantelleria, or hunting for truffles in Umbria each chapter includes, not just anecdotes, personal stories and practical advice, but also recipes that explore the cultural and historical references that make these subjects timeless. For anyone who follows Elizabeth on her blog Elizabeth Minchilli in Rome, read her previous book Eating Rome, or used her brilliant phone app Eat Italy to dine well, Eating My Way Through Italy, is a must.
