Index and illustrated. La Dolce Vita is a rich and engaging narrative detailing the author's family through their shared and continuing love for chocolate. The often-remarkable anecdotes are intertiwined with an abudance of mouth-watering chocolate recipes that have been passed down through four generations of women in Isabel's family.
Each of the recipes revealed throughout the text is unique, either because of its unusual blend of ingredients, its historical, personal or geographical interest, or its outstanding quality. From her great grandmother Omaama's gooey, nutty Weinacht Guezi to her grandmother Nonna's Argia's Crema di Castagen, and from her mothers rich rum laced Chocolate Mousse to Isabel's indulgent, extravagant Saffron-infused Mendiants with Crushed Pepper and Edible Gold Leaf, there is something in the alchemy of melting, mixing and grating chocolate that sets it apart from other forms of cooking and makes eating it an unrivalled pleasure. Buon Appetitio!
