The Southern Italian Farmer's Table features authentic recipes from over thirty agriturismi (working family farms that provide room and board to travelers) located in central and southern Italy, where the cuisine served epitomizes the farm-fresh movement underway in the United States, the UK, and beyond. Visitors to agriturismi, who come from all over Europe and North America, indulge in such delights as vibrant green olive oil fresh from the press, a myriad of hand-shaped pastas cooked to perfection, and wedges of aged pecorino redolent of verdant green pastures. Matthew Scialabba and Melissa Pellegrino, both professional chefs who are fluent in Italian, have transcribed more than 150 authentic Italian recipes from these family farms¿few of which are found in cookbooks available outside of Italy. Full-color photographs and anecdotes about the farms and their residents bring Italy's glorious countryside to life. The 150 authentic recipes include: Grilled Provolone with Blood Orange ReductionBread Dough Pasta with AmatricianaPork Bracciole with Eggplant and Scamorza CheeseSausage Cooked in Red Wine with Sweet Dried Peppers and Black OlivesCinnamon and Hazelnut Cookies
