About the Author…
Over 30 years ago, Faith Willinger moved to Florence, Italy where she spent the last three decades immersing herself in the region’s rich culinary landscape. Adventures of an Italian Food Lover is Willinger’s fifth book on Italian ingredients and cooking. Her previous tittles include Eating in Italy, Red, White and Greens and Ingredienti. She also writes frequently for Epicurious, the Condé Nast food website. When Faith is not writing or scoping out the best markets, kitchens and wineries of Italy, she teaches market-to-table sessions in her 18th century home located in the center of Florence.
