La Cucina - The original cuisine of Italy, cooking bible

Bolzano or Milan? Venice or maybe Florence? Which city is your favorite in Italy?

Bella Italia is diverse – both in terms of landscape and cuisine. Whether you enjoy a hearty spinach dumpling while hiking in South Tyrol or a veal schnitzel with prosciutto and sage (saltimbocca) at the foot of the Spanish Steps in Rome, Italian cuisine is always a delight!

To ensure that it stays that way, the Accademia Italiana della Cucina has been committed to preserving Italy's gastronomic heritage for 60 years. In the Callwey book "La Cucina. The original Italian cuisine", the experts have compiled 2,000 recipes from all regions of Italy into a unique cookbook. Traditional dishes from Nonna, tried-and-tested meals from extended families or delicious desserts from small, fine bakers - this cooking bible contains the entire cuisine of Italy, from Trentino to Sicily.

The Callwey cookbook “La Cucina. The original Italian cuisine” is a journey of discovery through the 20 regional cuisines of Italy. Therefore, La Cucina is a true treasure trove for every cook and Italy lover .

Each part of the country has its typical dishes and the reader learns that well-known pasta dishes are prepared completely differently in the north than in the south. The almost thousand-page work is rounded off with brief additional information on where exactly the dishes come from, when they are usually served in Italy and what they go best with.
