Books of the Ligurian cuisine

Silk Handkerchiefs

101 Ligurian recipes

People from Liguria are very particular about their traditions: never a word about them if not by chance. They tend to keep everything for themselves. Ligurian gastronomy never really opens out; not even during tourist season. Go through a menu of coastal haunts and you find out that local specialties hardly peep out. Tradition though clashes with wisdom and cooking is everybody's heritage. Here comes Franco Accame to reveal the mysteries with his carefully hand picked "handkerchiefs". He does give you the recipes of course, but along with them he also explains them through historical evidences and events.

Franco Accame is a well renowned expert in gastronomy and cooking. He has been working for newspapers and magazines of Genoa, Milan and Rome. He has published many books on Liguria and its fine cuisine.
