Travel across Italy and discover the pasta dishes that shape each region in this beautiful cookbook.

For Italians, pasta isn’t just a dish – it’s part of their identity. Every shape, filling, and sauce tells a story which reflects the landscape and history of the places they come from. Whether it’s the saffron-stained strands of Sardinia’s malloreddus or the hand-cut ribbons of Emilia-Romagna’s tagliatelle, each of Italy’s 20 regions each have their own pasta traditions which continue to be celebrated and protected.

A Pasta Tour is a journey through these dishes and traditions, exploring how geography and culture have shaped the pasta dishes that come from each of Italy’s regions. Discover the origins of iconic pasta shapes, such as orecchiette, pici and ravioli, and the sauces they are traditionally served with, such as pesto alla Genovese, ragu alla Bolognese or carbonara.

Written by Pia Gava, cook, author and former MasterChef contestant, A Pasta Tour invites you to taste your way down the Italian peninsula – from the alpine kitchens of the north to the sun-soaked coasts of the south. This is a celebration of Italy’s most beloved food, and the people and places that make it.
