Title:
Made at Home: The food I cook for the people I love
Condition: BRAND NEW
Format: Hardcover
Overview:
Made at Home invites you into Giorgio Locatelli’s kitchen, where every recipe is a generous gesture toward the people who matter most. Spanning the places he calls home—from the sunlit hills of Northern Italy to the energetic streets of North London, and the sun-drenched charm of a Puglian holiday house shared with his wife Plaxy—the book celebrates vegetables as the vibrant backbone of meals, whether in bright salads or comforting seasonal stews. Alongside bold vegetable dishes, the collection features hearty fish and meat mains and irresistible cakes to share, turning simple ingredients into memorable feasts. The recipes are written with warmth and lucidity, designed for home cooks seeking restaurant-quality flavor without the fuss. A core moment in Giorgio’s world is a daily gathering: his Locanda Locatelli family—chefs and front-of-house colleagues—share a meal as he reveals their best-loved dishes, including the Tuesday Pizza and the Saturday Italian Burger. The result is a cookbook that feels like a beloved family cookbook, inviting you to cook with love, confidence, and a touch of Italian soul.
What Makes This Book Stand Out:
What makes Made at Home distinct is the intimate voice of a premier Italian chef guiding you through a repertoire built for real life. The recipes marry seasonal produce with bold, clear flavors that work for weekday dinners and weekend gatherings alike, never sacrificing warmth for technique. The book foregrounds vegetables and crafts them into bright salads and nourishing stews, proving that plant-forward cooking can be both vibrant and deeply satisfying. Interwoven is a philosophy of hospitality: food as a weekly ritual, shared with people who matter, a concept brought to life by the team from Locanda Locatelli and the author’s own home kitchen. Signature dishes—Tuesday Pizza and Saturday Italian Burger—translate high-volume restaurant favorites into approachable, delicious home meals, making this a practical, inspirational addition to any cook’s library.
Who This Book Is Perfect For:
This cookbook is ideal for home cooks who crave authentic Italian flavor without complicated techniques. It will appeal to fans of Locanda Locatelli and readers who appreciate a vegetable-forward approach alongside satisfying meat and fish dishes. It’s a thoughtful gift for new homeowners, aspiring cooks, and dinner-party hosts who love to feed a crowd with seasonal, shareable plates. Suitable for singles and families alike, the book supports weeknight spontaneity and weekend entertaining, delivering dependable, tasty results that make the kitchen a place of warmth and togetherness.
Key Highlights:
- Authentic Italian flavors drawn from Northern Italy to Puglia
- Vegetable-forward salads and nourishing seasonal stews
- Generous fish and meat dishes plus shareable desserts
- Two restaurant-inspired signatures brought into the home kitchen (Tuesday Pizza, Saturday Italian Burger)
- Warm, inviting narrative that guides both new and confident home cooks
