Jamie's
Italy
Jamie Oliver
One of the great delights of this business has been watching the
maturation of Jamie Oliver. Despite the great and early fame which
came to him in his 'Naked Chef' incarnation, he has retained a
sense of whence he came. In this culinary tour of Italy he celebrates
the food which played a major part in his early career with Rose
Gray and Ruth Rogers at the River Café, with Gennaro Contaldo,
with Antonio Carlucci. There are some less familiar versions of
well-known dishes including some particularly seductive risottos,
one with
artichoke,
another with cauliflower. Not just content to pass along recipes,
Oliver also creates a sense of the place and of the personalities
which have
shaped them and perhaps himself. Wonderful photograph of landscapes,
food, and people. Hardcover, 319 pp, $37.95.
