Italian Street Food: Recipes From Italy's Bars and Hidden Laneways

So I bought this book for Christmas for my boyfriends mother...... And she loves it. She's a big foodie and loves street food the most. She doesn't really use it, she mainly looks at the pictures and reads the recipes. But occasionally she has me cook some of the recipes and so far they've turned out good.

Since we’re pretty much stuck wherever we are, this book allows up to travel to all these wonderful sites, that would cost a small fortune to visit, even if we could in the Covid era. Follow your senses, especially your senses of aroma & taste! Choose a recipe, region, or ingredient, & send yourselves to Italy! This author has some serious cred! We’re 10 recipes ahead of you! Just try’n catch up! Be healthy & well!!!

If you love sardines, you'll adore this cookbook. (there are many sardine recipes) I have a list of dishes I plan to try. Many of them are quite easy, I think.

Got this for my mother in law and she loves it.

Great book !!! Cover is fabulous makes a great coffee table book recipes also real good!

I have enjoyed this cookbook very much. Some great ideas for delicious small morsels for when guests are over or an afternoon of treats! This book takes me back to my childhood and memories of my grandmothers recipes as well as many enjoyable Aperitivo hours spent with a glass of Prosecco in small towns and large cities in Italy! The book has wonderful pictures to not only capture your imagination but to give you a little support in the “did I get it right?” age old cooking question!!I have yet to make any of the sweet treats but have enjoyed the Zeppole (I used buttery Sicilian green olives), the Polpettine di Melanzane (what a wonderfully light alternative!) and the Fiori di zucchini riipieni to name a few. I can highly recommend this book, the recipes work and are delicious!

I like the variety and the innovative selections.

I love this book, definitely brings back the little delis, bakeries, etc. visited on my annual trip to Italy. Super recipes, great pix add up to a fun read and a fun cooking/baking experience! Ordered this on a whim, but it's really worth it.

What I really like is that these recipes are achievable in a home kitchen and can be used as a jump point for variations. We made the arancini - a revelation and I think we are addicted.The book is informative and interesting, with excellent explanations of ingredients too.

Finally the book to complete our Italian lifestyle outside of Italy! It's full of all the snacks and street food we were used to eating in Italy on a daily basis and the recipes are so easy. We have purchased a great little deep fat fryer for less than £25 and are happily cooking our way through the book. We've so many Italian recipe books but this has all the best bits that they miss out. What's also great is that the recipes haven't been altered, like so many supposedly 'Italian' cookery books, it's all typical Italian!

This book is fantastic! I bought a copy for my daughter, then decided I wanted one, too! All the recipes are authentic. I love the illustrations and I appreciate the amount of research behind this “beauty!” I would strongly recommend it! It’s ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me!

Bought this as a birthday gift for my son and he loved it

Zuerst ein kleiner Hinweis: Es gibt auch ein deutschsprachiges Kochbuch mit dem identen Titel "Italian Street Food", ebenfalls sehr empfehlenswert, es handelt sich aber um verschiedene Bücher.Dieses englischsprachige Werk punktet auf vielerlei Art und Weise: Tolle, appetitanregende Speisefotos und modern aufgemachte Impressionen von Italien. Alles kommt sehr zeitgemäß rüber ohne die Tradition aus den Augen zu verlieren.Man muss nicht gerade auf der Straße unterwegs sein, um an diesen Gerichten Freude zu haben, zutreffend ist jedenfalls, dass sich viele Speisen unkompliziert konsumieren lassen und nicht nach Tafelsilber und edlen Porzellan schreien (obwohl ich hier niemanden aufhalten möchte, sich der köstlichen Gerichte in gehobener Atmosphäre zu erfreuen).Die Rezepte sind jedenfalls meist nicht allzu kompliziert und absolut Party- und Brunch-tauglich. Minipizzas, köstliches Gebäck süß und pikant und vieles mehr. Ob Stehempfang, Silvestereinladung oder Sommerfest: Diese köstlichen italienischen Gerichte kommen sicher generationsübergreifend bei den meisten Leuten gut an. Sollte sich die Geselligkeit bei dem einen oder anderen in Grenzen halten: Ein oder zwei Gerichte aus dem Buch nachkochen, ein paar alte Filme von Adriano Celentano oder Bud Spencer und Terence Hill ansehen, Imbisse dabei genussvoll verzehren, die Gegend um die Couch vollbröseln (am nächsten Tag kann man ja bei Amazon gegebenenfalls einen Handstaubsauger bestellen), Spaß haben!
