Squash FROM THE PUBLISHER
The Squash is the first book in the series meant to allow the reader to rediscover old flavors. The intention is to reintroduce some of Italy's important traditional dishes, which have been neglected too long.
The book begins with an introduction to the history of the squash written by the food historian Alberto Capatti, followed by a careful analysis showing how this vegetable possesses all the qualities demanded by modern nutritional standards.
