There are two important influences in my cooking life: my mother
and Anna del Conte. Anna is the best Italian food writer. She
changed the way the English thought about Italian cooking

Something of a hero... Her lemon risotto is heavenly, her plums
cooked with wine, spices and rosemary a delicious staple. Her
writing is warm and unaffected, and full of fascinating historical
detail

Lots has changed in the food world sine Del Conte first published
these recipes in 1993, but they remain classics of their type, with
a few interesting curve balls thrown in for good measure, such as
risotto with smoked salmon and whiskey
