Publisher's Synopsis
Born in Sardinia, Giovanni Pilu moved to Australia in 1992 full of enthusiasm and passion for the unique flavours of his homeland. In this, his first book, Giovanni celebrates a distinctive regional Italian cuisine based on simple ingredients prepared with minimum fuss, and a food culture firmly rooted in the hospitality that is an essential element of life in a harsh Mediterranean landscape. A place where cheese is served at every meal, and bread must always be on the table. From bread to desserts, passing by meat, game and vegetables, Giovanni's wide range of recipes are a colourful yet accessible insight into the food that is in his blood and close to his heart.
