Gregg Wallace has fallen in love with Italian cuisine. Along with his wife Anna, and with a little help from her Italian

parents, he has created a simple Italian cookbook so that we can all enjoy traditional Italian cuisine at home.

 Brought to life through stunning photographs of the Tuscan

countryside and buzzing food markets, this book is bursting with dishes that Gregg and Anna have explored, laughed and argued

about with their family, from vitello tonnato, funghi arancini and crespelle to porchetta, bagna cauda and bowls of vongole.

“Everybody knows Italian is my favourite cuisine – it is to my mind the greatest cuisine of the world. It’s family food, it brings people to the table, it’s not difficult to do, everybody can learn to cook this way. I have discovered so much love in this new family

of mine and it’s centred around the table. I want to share this passion, I want everybody to taste their own slice of it.”

Italian cookery is in Anna’s blood. Born to Italian parents, Anna grew up spending her school holidays in Lazio, learning to cook from her ‘Nonna’. Now married to Gregg, she is thrilled to have found someone with a similar passion for food and looks forward to bringing Italian cookery to the heart of their home.
