Scarti d'Italia (Vol. 2) (Valentina Raffaelli, Luca Boscardin)

$75.00

NOTE: This book is in English & Italian.

A new culinary adventure from North to South, the common thread once again the "waste from Italy". Valentina Raffaelli and Luca Boscardin accompany us on a journey that explores our country starting from its recipes and typical products, focusing this time on what the earth produces: vegetables, herbs, roots… After the first Scarti d'Italia - dedicated to offal and what is commonly (erroneously) considered to be thrown out of meat - this exploration delves into the field of agriculture, looks at the current production and distribution system, and once again leads us to ask ourselves questions: should vegetables also be "beautiful" to be "good"?

How much food do we waste? And how many products are there that we don't even consider? Scarti d'Italia 2 is a cookbook in the name of sustainability, where each recipe seems to remind us that Italy is a large vegetable garden, and that it is enough to sharpen the view between local markets and local products to find immense wealth.
