'Istria is testament to the idea that recipes are so much more than
instructions, that they are accumulated layers of stories and
histories, both personal and collective, brought to life every time
a dish is made. An exquisite book.' - Rachel Roddy Istria is the
heart-shaped promontory at the northern crux of the Adriatic Sea,
where rows of vines and olives grow in fields of red earth. Here,
the cuisine records a history of changing borders - a blend of the
countries (Italy, the Republic of Venice, Austria, Hungary and now
Slovenia and Croatia) that have shared Istria's hills and coasts
and valleys. This book is a record of traditions, of these cultures
and of Paola's family: recipes from her childhood, the region's
past, and family and friends who still live beside the Adriatic
coast. Among recipes for semolina dumplings, beef and pork goulash
and apricot strudel are memories of the region and stories of the
recipes' authors: the Italian-Istrians who remained in the region
after the 1940s, and those who left for new countries.
