Al Dente: A History of Food in Italy Book Launch
With classic Italian dishes topping everyone’s lists of favorite foods, it is unsurprising that Italian food has had a long and rich cultural history. Despite food scarcity, wars, invasions, and difficult agricultural conditions,
Italy persevered and created a food culture based on grains, legumes, and vegetables.
The New School’s own Professor Fabio Parasecoli explores the history of Italian food culture in his new book, Al Dente: A History of Food in Italy, at this book release celebration.
Lisa Sasson, Clinical Assistant Professor and Registered Dietitian and Sara Jenkins, chef/owner of Porchetta and Porsena will discuss this new book with the author.
This event is sponsored by The New School's Food Studies program.
