Cover of Liguria, The Cookbook by Laurel Evans

Liguria, The Cookbook

My personal love letter to Liguria, the Italian Riviera – the home of pesto, focaccia, and the Cinque Terre. This land is also the source of a rich local cuisine, one that is vegetable-forward, inherently waste-conscious, and full of regional delights. From local twists on Italian favorites like fritto misto, risotto, and ravioli to lesser-known Ligurian specialties such as corzetti, this cookbook offers readers a personal journey into the heart of the foods of this timeless, yet ever-evolving region.

Italian Language Cookbooks

I have published four cookbooks in Italy about traditional and regional American cuisine, hoping to prove to Italians that American culinary culture goes beyond fast food. These titles are currently only available in Italian.
