“Gass shows her deep appreciation for and knowledge of Italian cuisine in this deftly written guide to small bites that pack a powerful flavor punch.” –Library Journal
Join us in the Lab at Curio Spice and meet chef, author and culinary influencer Anna Gass for the release of Italian Snacking! In her new cookbook, Italian Snacking: Sweet and Savory Recipes for Every Hour of the Day (Union Square & Co., March 19, 2024), Gass invites food lovers and home cooks on a delectable journey through the heart of Italy, exploring the rich tapestry of flavors that define Italian snacking culture.
Combining simplicity and creativity, at its best, Italian cuisine charms us through a combination of the highest-quality ingredients, simple recipes tied to the specialties of each region, and the experience of being at the table. There is an entire category of delicious smaller bites in Italian cooking that few Americans know about—spuntini—meant to be enjoyed at in-between meal moments of the day.
