POLENTA ON THE BOARD IS a sumptuous collection of over 100 tested recipes which follow the traditions of Abruzzo, a region of Italy just beginning to be recognized for its unique dishes and traditions – like stracci, Abruzzese crepes filled and baked in a succulent sauce or polenta sulla tavola, slow-cooked, coarse cornmeal covered in a rich sauce and eaten communally.

Growing up in an Italian family and learning at her Nonna’s side, just as her Nonna had done as a young girl in her native Antrodoco, Italy, Valerie Sovran Mitchell has created a timeless addition to any cookbook collection. Seasoned and novice cooks alike will enjoy the easy-to-follow recipes. Detailed techniques for preparing the basic building blocks of good Italian cooking – fresh pasta, gnocchi, polenta and risotto accompanied by tomato, balsamella and ragu sauces – are complemented by captivating stories. You will experience the warmth of Nonna’s cucina, hear the conversation around the table as people dig into their shared polenta, sense the excitement of going to the giardino to pick fresh raspberries or to the forest to collect wild dandelion and mushrooms.

In our rush to create one-minute meals and with the growth of fast foods, it is refreshing to find a book celebrating the pleasures of time-honoured cooking, Abruzzese-style.
