Reviews

Gentilcore's Italy and the Potato is a surprising and quite entertaining examination of the world's most cultivated vegetable. ... I found particularly exciting recipes distributed throughout the text, from an economic stew served in Naples' most important orphanage (ingredients include potatoes, beans, barley, kidneys, and chili peppers) to pasta and potato soup ... [A] wonderful book. -- Edward Valauskas, Curator of Rare Books, Chicago Botanic Garden * Lenhardt Library *
