Description: "Here is a culinary ramble through the seventeen regions of Italy starting at the very north with Val d'Aosta and continuing south through Piemonte, Toscana Umbria, Puglia, all the way to Calabria, Sicilia, and Sardegna. The Romagnolis give us a miniportrait of each area - its physical attributes, the cultural and historical backgrounds, the characteristics of its people and the endlessly fascinating differences between them, and its soups. A real Italian zuppa is nourishment for the soul, reminiscent of the warmth and fragrance of the family hearth, and this assortment comes straight from the collective hearths of all Italy."--BOOK JACKET. "There are light soups, hearty soups, vegetable soups, meat soups, fish soups, bread soups - above all, tasty soups."--BOOK JACKET.
