{"product_id":"my-calabria-9780393065169","title":"My Calabria","description":"At the tip of Italy's \"boot\" lies Calabria. It is a beautiful, mountainous region populated by fishermen and small farmers. Rosetta Costantino grew up in this rugged landscape--her father a shepherd and wine maker and her mother his tireless assistant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When her family immigrated to California, they re-created a little Calabria on their property, cooking with eggplant, tomatoes, and peppers from their garden, fresh ricotta made from scratch, and pasta fashioned by hand. A frugal people, Calabrians are master preservers, transforming fresh figs into jam, canning fresh tuna in oil, and sun-drying peppers for the winter. Now Rosetta shares her family's story and introduces readers to the fiery simplicity of Calabrian food. The first cookbook of a little-known region of Italy, \u003cem\u003eMy Calabria\u003c\/em\u003e celebrates the richness of the region's landscape and the allure of its cuisine. This is a cookbook for our time: a reminder of how ingenious and resourceful cooks can create a gorgeous local cuisine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCostantino, Rosetta:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Born and raised in Verbicaro, Calabria, \u003cstrong\u003eRosetta Costantino\u003c\/strong\u003e teaches cooking classes and lives in Oakland, California.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFletcher, Janet:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eJanet Fletcher\u003c\/strong\u003e, a columnist for the \u003cem\u003eSan Francisco Chronicle\u003c\/em\u003e, is the author of numerous books on food and wine.
