Elisabeth – I just stumbled upon your blog while looking for more information on gnocchi croccanti, which I am making for dinner. I have to say how much I enjoy your book. I am half of Italiaoutdoors, a small two person team that designs and leads custom active (bike, hike and ski) culinary tours in Northeastern Italy – specifically the Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and Trentino. I am constantly looking for new sources of food and wine information, as I am the chef/wine part of the team. I love both the recipes and the backstories! I have, and will continue, to post recipes inspired by my visits to these region on my blog, and find your book invaluable. I recently posted Orzo e Fagioli, and your version was one of the several that inspired me!
