Carluccio and the Renaissance Cookbook
19 December 2007 by Jozef Schildermans
The BBC airs an hour long documentary on Bartolomeo Scappi and his Opera on 27 December at 8pm. The Indepedent has seen a preview and is very positive:
Carluccio and the Renaissance Cookbook gives us an insight into the excesses and flights of fancy of Italian Renaissance cookery, with its fashionable emphasis on sugar and spice. What I remember most, however, is an extreme close-up of a barbecue spit popping out through a suckling pig’s bum.
