The Gourmet Mag is a seasonal Italian cookbook and an Italian life style magazine that explores authentic and traditional Italian recipes, a bit of modern cuisine, Italy’s food culture, people, places and seasonal fun. In every issue, you get a collection of Italian dishes for you to explore and enjoy seasonal produce and cooking methods. By introducing you to Southern, Central and Northern Italian food recipes, it gives you a glimpse of the immense world of ingredients, traditions and the essentials of classic Italian cooking. You’ll find both everyday Italian recipes and special, gourmet dishes for your gatherings and celebrations. You can relax with simple and easy recipes, or challenge yourself into two days leavening breads (hello rainy weekends!). Servings are for two people, to be duplicated as desired. Measures are in gr, cups and oz. The Yellow Issue is a place where everything is cozy, homey and comfortable.The yellow kitchen is where we cook nutritious Italian comfort food, based on seasonal ingredients. It features a winter cookbook with recipes that help us fight the cold and the melancholy of short and dark Winter days.The yellow home is a place so warm and welcoming that everyone prefers to stay in, rather than hysterically run around in search of distractions.But the yellow issue is also a source of inspiration to go out, for activities worth the effort of adding layers and layers of wool to your outfit. Less is more when it comes to Winter adventures: a night out at the theater, an art exhibition, a salt caves experience… and then… back to the sofa, with a hot chocolate and a good book.Why yellow? Because of the yellow ingredients you’ll use to cook comfort and tasty Winter dishes. You will cook delicious Italian pasta recipes, like pasta and cauliflower from Sicily, lemon tonnarelli, Pasta e Fagioli from Naples, truffle pappardelle, and mushroom sagnarelli. And yes, you’ll learn what these pasta shapes are!Next, you’ll cook cheese like never before: crostini, cheese boards, fondues, and raclettes: all the goodness a slice of good Italian cheese can give!Pulses are Winter favorites here in Italy, so next to Pasta e Fagioli, you’ll find delicious ways to cook lentils and chickpeas too!Between a cooking session and the other, wouldn’t it be nice to visit a secret jewel of Rome? This year you’ll uncover Rome’s Jewish ghetto: the food, the people, and the traditions.Back to the kitchen, you’ll fall in love with an unusual ingredient: walnuts. You’ll use them to make pasta, soups, and cookies.You’ll also become your local fishmonger’s best friend: he’ll be your supplier for some of the most fabulous recipes you’ll cook this Winter: Italian fish recipes. Including pasta (of course), oysters and baked casseroles. There’s still more to be uncovered: life in Italy during Winter, seasonal celebrations, slow baking, and home projects. Ready?
