Bring the Soul of Italy Into Your Kitchen

From the creator of A Kitchen in France, Mimi Thorisson returns with her most personal cookbook yet—an invitation to experience the beauty, simplicity, and flavor of Italian living.

Now rooted in the Italian countryside, Mimi shares 100 deeply loved, family-approved recipes that have become staples in her home—dishes she has cooked, refined, and returned to again and again over years of life in Italy.

This is more than a cookbook—it’s a doorway into a slower, more delicious way of living.

Cook with the seasons, just as Italians do:

• In spring, savor risi e bisi, a delicate, brothy risotto celebrating fresh peas at their peak

• In summer, transform zucchini into the iconic spaghetti alla Nerano, a masterclass in effortless flavor

• In fall, indulge in baked tagliolini with prosciutto—comforting, elegant, and irresistibly simple

Every recipe is designed to be approachable yet unforgettable, bringing authentic Italian warmth to your table without complexity or fuss.

Whether you’re cooking for family, friends, or yourself, this book will inspire you to slow down, eat well, and turn everyday meals into meaningful moments.

If you’ve ever dreamed of living—and eating—like an Italian, this is your invitation.
