Wines of the Titerno River Valley
by John A. Cofrancesco
I can remember my father, a first generation Italian
American growing up in Hamden, Connecticut, USA telling me about his childhood
and how he remembered his father making wine. The children would help in the
“stomping of the grapes” and drink wine with their meals starting at an early
age.

 BOOK
Naples at Table-Cooking in Campania
by Schwartz, Arthur R.
Harper-Collins Publishers, Inc, 1998
While technically this is a cookbook, it is so much more. It includes
information on the history and preparation of Italian food. It covers
the well-known Italian recipes, as well as some of the lesser-known
specialties. It encompasses the cooking of the provinces of Avellino,
Benevento, Caserta, and Salerno, the internationally famous resorts of
the Amalfi Coast, Capri, and Ischia - and of course, Naples itself.

A profusely illustrated collection of more than 200 authentic Italian recipes and cooking techniques, that is equally at home on a living room coffee table or in a kitchen. Organized into eight culinary regions, it is further divided into appetizers, first courses, second courses, vegetable side dishes, desserts, and of course the wines of the region. This makes it easy to create an entire meal that is characteristic of any part of Italy. Recipes from the Cofrancesco region of origin, Campagna, are well represented.
