It is about cucina povera, the name Italians give to traditional cooking, the kind that is more likely to be found in humble trattorias, homes and farmhouses than in fancy restaurants. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eAs cookbook author Loukie Werle explains, cucina povera has no adequate translation -- it can mean \"poor cook\" or \"country food\" -- but it truly represents some of the most spectacular, affordable and satisfying Italian food that exists. It employs simple cooking methods, seasonal fare and only a small range of ingredients at a time (a few sausages, for example, or cheaper types of fish or meat), so that even the most novice cook can turn out delicious results. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eItalian Country Cooking, as you'll discover when you try it, means eating with a warm heart -- quite possibly better than you've ever done in your life. As a Roman proverb says: Piu se spenne e pejo se magna ... the more you spend, the worse you eat. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003e---- \u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003eGood condition.
