About this book

A cookbook and wine guide celebrating the traditions of southern Italy, from the country's foremost regional Italian restaurant. At San Francisco's acclaimed A16 restaurant (named for the highway that cuts across southern Italy), diners pack the house for chef Nate Appleman's house-cured salumi, textbook Naples-style pizzas, and gutsy slow-cooked meat dishes. Wine director Shelley Lindgren is renowned in the business for her expeditionary commitment to handcrafted southern Italian wines. In A16: FOOD + WINE, Appleman and Lindgren share the source of their inspiration—the bold flavors of Campania. From chile-spiked seafood stews and savory roasts to delicate antipasti and vegetable sides, the recipes are beguilingly rustic and approachable. Lindgren's vivid profiles of the key grapes and producers of southern Italy provide vital context for appreciating and pairing the wines. Stunning photography captures the wood-fired ambiance of the restaurant and the Campania countryside it celebrates.

Jody Williams, Rita Sodi, Anna Kovel

Recipes of Ancient Rome

Selected Recipes from 'Apicius de re Coquinaria'

Apicius

The Recipes of Ancient Rome reveals the culinary delights of one of history’s most influential civilisations, exploring the culinary traditions and diet of the Roman Empire. Featuring recipes carefully selected from Joseph Dommers Vehling’s 1924 translation of Apicius de Coquinaria, an ancient Roman cookbook attributed to the famed gourmand Marcus Gavius Apicius, this collection reveals the innovative and diverse culinary traditions of the Roman Empire. Offering a fascinating glimpse into the tastes, techniques, and ingredients that graced the tables of the Ancient Romans, this volume serves as a historical resource rather than a practical cookbook. Painting a vivid picture of Roman gastronomy as it was in the fifth century, many of the dishes reveal surprising similarities to those still enjoyed in the Western world, offering a testament to the enduring legacy of Roman culinary traditions. Explore the kitchens of Ancient Rome, and marvel at the ingenuity of a cuisine that helped shape a civilisation. Accompanied by detailed footnotes and contextual insights, Recipes of Ancient Rome is an invaluable book for historians, food enthusiasts, and anyone intrigued by the flavours of the past.
