Excerpt from Eating the Italian Way
The real love of good food is deeply rooted in Italy, as is an unfeigned, genuine love of art. In every region, the cuisine strikes a profound harmony with the climate, with the beauties of the landscape. It varies from city to country and from town to town, just as does the mercurial Italian temperament.
Compare them, for a moment. In the north, there is the hearty abundance of Piedmont, of Liguria, Lombardy' and Veneto, rich with the opulence of the good earth, and impregnated with the divine aroma of the northern vineyards. In the cen tral triangle Rome, Florence, Ancona we find a perfect balance, a gastronomical harmony achieved perhaps nowhere else on earth. For variety, we have only to slip down to Naples and the Amalfi coast, to linger over the knowing sobriety of home cooking in the southern provinces, and to taste the rare and exotic traditional fare of the Islands.
