Tuscan Women Cook: Nonnas. Memories. Recipes.

About this book

Tuscan Women Cook celebrates the food wine and culture of the Val dOrcia in the rolling hills of Tuscany south of Siena. In week-long hands-on classes guests learn to cook authentic Italian dishes from some of the best cooks in Italy the grandmothers or "nonne" of the village of Montefollonico. In this cookbook these extraordinary women share family recipes that are passed from one generation to the next. The authors have assembled over 50 recipes collected over the years in the village. These recipes were generously shared by the nonnas and chefs of Montefollonico. The recipes capture the deep food traditions of Tuscany.
