Fifty years ago, a group of Italian scholars gathered to discuss a
problem: how to preserve traditional Italian cooking. They formed
the Italian Academy of Cuisine to document classic recipes from
every region. The academy’s more than seven thousand associates
spread out to villages everywhere, interviewing grandmothers and
farmers at their stoves, transcribing their recipes—many of which
had never been documented before. This is the culmination of that
research, an astounding feat—2,000 recipes that represent the
patrimony of Italian country cooking. Each recipe is labeled with
its region of origin, and it’s not just the ingredients but also
the techniques that change with the geography. Sprinkled throughout
are historical recipes that provide fascinating views into the folk
culture of the past. There are no fancy flourishes here, and no
shortcuts; this is true salt-of-the-earth cooking. The book is an
excellent everyday source for easily achievable recipes, with such
simple dishes as White Bean and Escarole Soup, Polenta with Tomato
Sauce, and Chicken with Lemon and Capers. For ease of use there are
four different indexes. La Cucina is an essential reference for
every cook’s library.
This book was mainly written while I stayed at the Catholic
University of Louvain. Professor Anton P. Barten was the one who
did not only give me a warm welcome in Louvain, but also supported
my research with most valuable comments and constructive
criticisms. In addition I benefitted from dis cussions with Erik
Schokkaert, Denis de Crombrugghe and Jo Baras on various subjects,
such as the small-sample correction of Chapter 9. The arduous task
of transferring my neat handwriting into a readable typescript was
excellently taken care of by Brs. E. Crabbe and notably Brs. F.
Duij sens, even after working hours. Mrs. A. Molders prevented me
of making serious abuse of the English language. My admiration for
Carien, finally, is an exponential function of the patience and
enthusiasm with which she sup ported my research. Chapter I is a
general introduction to the subject of linkage models, and it
contains few mathematical elaborations. Chapters 2 to 4 use more,
but elementary, mathematics, and treat several aspects related to
the deriva tion, interpretation and estimation of linkage models.
Chapter 2 deals vii tll the theory of import allocation models,
Chapter J treats the problem of defining and interpreting
elasticities of substitution, while Chapter 4 is concerned with the
econometric problems related to the estimation of mul tivariate
models with linear restrictions, such as import allocation models."
