Williams-Sonoma Rome
Text by Maureen B. Fant, photographs by Jean-Blaise Hall. Oxmoor House 2005. ISBN 0848730062. The Rome volume in the Williams-Sonoma Foods of the World series. About half is devoted to 50 recipes, from antipasto to dolce, and half to text on food history, local practices, and spotlights on specific foods. It really is mostly my Rome—what's traditional, what's trendy, and what we have that you don't.
