La Nostra Cucina Povera – Everyday Italian Eats Book

Embark on a culinary journey under the blazing sun, from parmigiana di melanzane to carbonara “done wrong”, minestra di verdure and pizzette – without forgetting nonna’s sweet treats! The book is packed with 40 everyday recipes loved by the Platania family, many of which have been passed down through generations.
Each recipe evokes Luca’s precious memories from his childhood and youth spent in Rome. Cucina povera, ”poor kitchen”, is a traditional Italian way of cooking that emphasises simple ingredients. Originating in the Middle Ages when forced to make use of leftovers, cucina povera remains relevant today – after all, affordable and delicious food are timeless virtues. You’re about to discover that the best flavours come from knowing how to make the most of genuine ingredients, not from excess. You’ll also find handy tips for stocking your pantry and ways to add your own twist to the recipes.
