Medici is internationally renowned for her cookery classes in Tuscany. In this beautiful book she invites us into the kitchen and dining room of the medieval monastery which is both her home and headquarters for the school. From there she sets off on a series of visits to the villas, palaces and castles of her friends and relatives, giving us a privileged insight into the rebirth of Italian cooking which is taking place. Each chapter discusses the culinary delights of a different region of Italy and includes a wealth of delicious traditional recipes. The photographer, John Ferro Sims, travelled with Lorenza de’Medici capturing the beauty of the landscape and the elegance of classical Italian dishes in some innovative surroundings.
