Now the La Cucina di Silvia founder, cook and food writer takes us on a culinary journey through her homeland, combining over 100 kosher recipes for Italian-Jewish dishes with family stories, stunning photography and practical tips. Yotam Ottolenghi calls Jewish Flavours of Italy “a brilliant book to cook from”, while Claudia Roden describes it as “fascinating, moving and delicious.” In conversation with food historian and author Pen Vogler.
