Welcome to the Tyrrhenian Sea, home to la dolce vita, sun-drenched islands, and seaside towns where even the simplest trattoria has an effortless glamour.

Following on from the success of her first book, A House Party in Tuscany, Amber Guinness travels from the Tuscan coast down through Lazio and Campania via Naples and the Amalfi Coast and on to northern Sicily. Amber delves into the history, stories, and flavors that have come home to her kitchen and shaped her food philosophy.

Amber’s quest for maximum flavor with minimal effort shines through in these delicious and achievable recipes that will bring an authentic mouthful of coastal Italy to your table: crostini with ricotta and ‘nduja; zucchini and mint lasagne; tomato linguine with capers; seabass with pistachio and almonds; Neapolitan vinegary fried zucchini; potato and caper salad from Salina; raspberry tiramisu and the ultimate Amalfi lemon cream cake.

Inspired by the markets and food of summer holidays by the beach, Italian Coastal is a fusion of recipe book, travelogue, and memoir – with sumptuous food and travel photography throughout – that will transport readers to the sunny Mediterranean.

Illustrated with evocative images, beautiful stories, and completely delicious recipes, this is classic Amber Guinness, so beautiful.— Rachel Allen, author of “Soup Broth Bread”

My Thoughts: So much more than a cookbook, Italian Coastal is a viaggio (journey) through delectable food and heartwarming stories. Included is a favorites section with pairing suggestions, a comprehensive index, and clear, concise instructions.. The illustrations are both beautiful and scrumptious. With a little imagination, you can smell the Italian scents wafting from the pages. Amore! Delizioso!
