Lucio's Ligurian Kitchen: the Pleasures of the Italian Riviera

Author(s): Lucio Galletto

Cooking, Food & Wine

Liguria is another country - they do things differently there, especially when it comes to food. Lucio Galletto grew up on Italy's sunny North West coastline, working in his family's seafood restaurant, but moved to Australia for love. Now he returns to his homeland and discovers exciting changes. The traditional repertoire of pesto, ravioli and wild greens pie has been expanded in the 21st century by chefs applying a lighter touch and a more adventurous spirit. Lucio reveals 180 delicious recipes that respect the experience of the past and anticipate the demands of the future.
