We’re so happy to welcome to the bookshop one of our most authoritative and inspirational Italian food writers and teachers. Valentina Harris – a descendent of the Renaissance family Sforzais – is a tremendous raconteur and passionate about sharing her food philosophy, techniques and stories.
Risotto! Risotto! is her beautiful, revamped masterpiece on one of Italy’s most iconic dishes. Prized for its texture, flavour and versatility, risotto has been part of Italian life since the eighth century and is one of Italy’s most famous dishes. She will show you how to prepare and cook the perfect risotto using ingredients from the humble tomato to the much sought‐after truffle. Delicious risottos from Fennel and Lemon (finocchi e limone) to Nettle (all ’Ortica). Come and feast.
This will be the perfect book and the perfect evening for cookery and risotto lovers.
