the simple cooking of Northern Italy, Verdure presents 100 healthful recipes for tempting dishes that make the best of fresh seasonal produce.
In Verdure, her long-awaited follow-up to Riso, Gioietta Vitale gives just-picked spinach, perfect baby artichokes, crisp green beans, and other delicacies of the garden the thoughtful treatment they deserve.
