Synopsis
A beautifully illustrated cookbook from Umberto Bombana, the owner of 8½ Otto e Mezzo, the only Italian restaurant outside of Italy to receive three Michelin stars.
In this cookbook, Umberto Bombana, the renowned Italian chef, introduces recipes that represent the perfect starting point for exploring the world of Italian ingredients and ingredients that come from other parts of the world. The name of his restaurant, 8½ Otto e Mezzo, personally chosen by the chef, is a tribute to Federico Fellini, who, in the namesake film, invites everyone to discover the joys of life and fully celebrate the Italian lifestyle--a tradition that continues at the restaurant.
The book features thirty recipes from the master chef's kitchen and many stories about the ingredients he uses from Italy, like pasta, pasta fresca, truffle, and burrata, combined with ingredients he takes from Asian traditions such as Japanese red tuna and Hokkaido sea urchins.
