An international best-seller, "The Silver Spoon" has confirmed Italian food to be one of the most popular cuisines in the world. Many of the best-loved Italian dishes are pure summer, such as bruschetta, salads of ripe tomatoes and basil, beef carpaccio sprinkled with capers and chargrilled artichokes with lemon. The simplicity and pure flavours of Italian cooking make the best use of the wonderful array of produce that is available in summer, such as tomatoes, fresh herbs, peas and beans, aubergines and berries. Italian food is perfect for picnics and barbecues, as well as light lunches and summer entertaining in the garden. Alongside fresh savoury dishes of summer vegetables, meat and fish, simple recipes turn cherries, plums and peaches into a range of sweet summer treats, from light fruit dishes to irresistible cocktails and gelati. The recipes are easy to follow and fully explained for the UK and US markets, and include some of the classics from "The Silver Spoon", along with many new recipes collected by the same team and published in English for the first time. They are utterly authentic, yet simple to prepare in any kitchen, and enable any aspiring cook to create delicious seasonal dishes, while expanding the repertoire of experienced cooks. A comprehensive and lively book with specially commissioned photographs and illustrations, the simple and user-friendly format of "The Silver Spoon Summer" makes it both accessible and a pleasure to read. "The Silver Spoon" has become the classic in the Italian cooking booklist for the international market and shares the bookshelves with other iconic cookery manuals such as "The Joy of Cooking". With the clarity and flair of its predecessors, "The Silver Spoon Summer" brings the dishes of the Italian summer to the world.
