This is not a cookbook; there are no recipes. From jacket: "The author profiles people who continue to follow traditional methods of raising and refining foods despite the regulations favoring mass production, which have lowered culinary standards in Europe. Join the author on his quests from the edge of the Alps to the far reaches of Sicily, tracking white truffles in Piedmont with a trifolau and his dogs, tasting true balsamic vinegar more esteemed than aged wine in Emilia, visiting a family pastaficio in a vain attempt to witness the ritual of pasta being shaped and cut, and cultivating olives on a Tuscan hillside for his own oil."
