It is still a delight to read Elizabeth David,
This book first published instill works, surprisingly, as a great introduction into genuine Italian cooking, but has become an interesting piece of British culinary history.
How the food scene has changed over the last sixty years At least in Britain, less so in Italy.
And then there is Mrs David's language, It is beautiful, elegant, precise, And often amusing, in a very British, understated kind of way,
Again not just a cookbook, a good read, perhaps with a glass of wine, some olives, a few, . Lovely, historical and so interesting, Worth owning so I can go back and reread parts, I love the fact her "voice" comes through so clearly in her writing, The version I have also has her"update" so fun to see where she disagrees with her earlier self.
Elizabeth David's Italian Food was one of the first books to demonstrate the enormous range of Italy's regional cooking.
For the foods of Italy, explained David, expanded far beyond minestrone and ravioli, to the complex traditions of Tuscany, Sicily, Lombardy, Umbria, and many other regions.

When she began writing in the's, the British scarcely noticed what was on their plates at all, which was perhaps just as well.

تاریخ بهنگام رسانی هجری خورشیدی ا, شربیانی A musthave for those interested in reading about early Italian cooking, What a terrible shame that Renato Guttuso's original drawings for this book have been banned from inclusion, It's worth reading "Midnight in Sicily" for additional background information on this, This book is about the truth of Italian cooking verses the fictions of the nineteen fifties and sixties, It a fascinating historical object and David has a strong voice, One of the first books on Italian cooking, and still one of the best, The seminal work of this genre, Still relevantyears on. Maybe I was Italian in a past, past life, Reading this book made me yearn for those magical few days in Italy, eating outside, drinking cheap wine, and eating fresh, simply prepared food.
A lot of criticism for this book is that the recipes aren't very detailed, As one who never follows recipes and rather takes them as "suggestions," the book was perfect for me, I like that David doesn't dumb down the recipes for readers and already assumes some knowledge of cooking and general kitchen skills.
The "recipes" are more like small nuggets of ideas that can be used to spark creativity in the kitchen.
The book was also pretty funny in how antiFrench it was, David clearly sees a bias towards French cooking from her research and on her trips to the bootshaped country.
It was also good to keep inmind the different time in which she wrote this book, I guess England was not as internationalfood friendly back then,
Disclaimer: I skipped the section of the book about land meat and game, because I don't usually cook or eat those animals anymore.
