Join Patrizia Simone, Umbrian-Australian chef, as she shares the time-honoured rituals, agricultural activities and treasured family recipes she brought with her from her childhood in rural Umbria. From the celebrations and recipes integral to Easter in the Umbrian spring, to foraging for chestnuts and preserving the olive harvest in autumn and the traditions accompanying the salami and sausage-making event that is il maile, the preserving of all edible parts of a pig during winter, this book captures the essence of Umbria and its culinary traditions.
