Author: Joe Vargetto
This volume is a beautiful Sicilian cookbook by acclaimed chef/ restaurateur, Joe Vargetto. Joe’s love of food led him to some of the best kitchens in Italy and France and apprenticeships in Melbourne’s finest restaurants. Now he expresses his authentic take on Sicilian cuisine every day in his own restaurants, Mister Bianco and Massi and in the delicious recipes here in his first cookbook. Each with their own story, the recipes feature the vibrant colours and distinctive flavours of Sicily.The recipes are inspired by Joe’s Sicilian heritage and mother’s home cooking. The Vargetto home in a Melbourne bayside suburb was like a small Sicilian farm with his father growing edible plants in the backyard with seeds bought back from Sicily, and mother using fresh seasonal produce in the kitchen to feed an extended family.Dishes such as Jerusalem Artichoke Soup with Scallops; Blood Orange Risotto with Yoghurt & Tuna Carpaccio and Chinotto Poached Quince with Rum Gelato, all exquisitely photographed with easy to follow recipes, will ensure that SICILIANO becomes a much - used cookbook in your kitchen.
