Skye McAlpine offers an insider’s perspective on Venetian home cooking, illustrated with her own beautiful photographs.
Some of the recipes in A Table in Venice are translated and barely adapted from old Venetian cookbooks, while other dishes are more loosely inspired by the ingredients, the flavours and the everyday life of Venice. From apricot and raisin sticky pastries with a morning espresso, to a dinner of roast duck with apples, pears and chestnuts, Skye McAlpine provides a rare glimpse into the tastes and secrets of a true Venetian kitchen.
