THE SILVER SPOON
The Silver Spoon, the most influential and successful Italian cookbook of the last 50 years, is now available in a brand-new revised edition. Originally published in 1950, it became an instant classic, selling over one million copies in eight editions. Considered essential in every household, it is still one of the most popular wedding presents today.
The Silver Spoon was conceived and first published by Domus, the design and architectural magazine famously directed by Giò Ponti from the 1920s to the 70s.
A select group of cooking experts was commissioned to collect hundreds of traditional Italian recipes and make them available to a wider modern audience for the first time.
In the process, they updated ingredients, quantities, and methods to suit contemporary tastes and customs, at the same time preserving the memory of ancient recipes for future generations.
They also included modern recipes from some of the most famous Italian chefs, resulting in a style of cooking that appeals to both the gourmet chef and the amateur enthusiast.
A comprehensive and lively book, its uniquely stylish and user-friendly format makes it accessible and a pleasure to read. The new edition features introductory material on culinary matters, including how to compose a traditional Italian meal, the typical food traditions of different regions, and how to set the table.
It is also illustrated with twice as many newly commissioned photographs and contains a new section of menus by celebrated chefs cooking traditional Italian food.
This is a monumental, unsurpassably prestigious cookbook that will share bookshelves with classic titles such as The Joy of Cooking and Larousse Gastronomique. With over 2,000 recipes illustrated with specially commissioned artwork and photography, the book is destined to become a fresh and definitive classic in the Italian cuisine booklist.
