Simposio | Italian Recipes, Travel, and Culture: Maremma
Author: Claudia Rinaldi
Publisher: Claudia Rinaldi
ISBN:
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Ciao, Welcome to Maremma, the Tuscan land of cowboys, brigands, and family-owned trattorie! Another Tuscany, far from the beautiful Medieval or Renaissance cities. Untamed, wild. Colonized and freed. Forgotten and celebrated. We will meet a variety of personages: from eternally hunted outlaws to celebrated grand dukes. Fierce noblewomen defending their family possessions or seducing sultans. Corsairs, monks, deli and cafè owners, butchers, street market vendors, travel agents, and winemakers. We will climb up perched towns to see breathtaking sights and maybe catch a witch flying by or guarding a millennial olive tree. We will follow the traces of Etrurians, of their cults and gods, and try to uncover the secrets they've left behind. Then we will travel through the eras: the Middle Ages, the Spanish domination, the left-wing... On the shores, we will encounter the Italian crowds in search of "la bella vita", ladies bent over the sand to collect Telline (clams), and anglers at work to preserve their traditional fishing practices. We will gather herbs to make delicious authentic dishes and regenerate our tired limbs in thermal springs born of a god's bolt. Through food, we will witness the outdoor life and cuisine of the Butteri (horsemen) of Maremma. The still vivid heritage of the Italian-Jewish communities. How the smallest town exported a recipe that became the national food of... France! How terrible memories can become delicious treats. And the way scraps and unsold cuts have combined into clay pots to give birth to extraordinary triggers for our taste buds. From wild boar to seafood, from ricotta to nutty Christmas sweets, we will learn how to cook like a Maremman. There's so much to discover about this beautiful land's past and present, so much to enjoy! So let the adventure begin! Benvenuti in Maremma! Claudia

Iteration 39

Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 91
Book Description
Is it poetry or philosophy or both? Who knows but it goes through your veins like a saccharine wave. Iteration 39 is subliminal rhymes or mnemonic art that becomes a part of the readers' heart. Beating as they're reading each line. It's difficult to define so why even try? Unlike anything in your library nor near your shelf. It's selfish healthiness for the soul; young and old. A trippy love story of souls across space and time and species!
