Episode 4
Italian is one of the world’s most popular cuisines, but how did it all start? What makes it so delicious? And how it became a global comfort food? This book is filled with fascinating and unexpected revelations, like the fact that many recipes became the best form of political propaganda, and that hunger and war were key in shaping how people ate, even more so than peace and abundance.
Delizia! The epic story of the Italians and their food by John Dickie, is a true culinary thriller, that it is as enticing as as it is revealing about how migration, cultural exchange and shifting identities are the true pillars of a culinary tradition that tells the story of the people that made it, one dish at the time.
