THE COMPLETE SIMPOSIO COOKBOOK SERIES

Simposio is a unique collection of Italian cookbooks created by an authentic Italian author. Each book combines recipes worthy of Bacchus’s table, stories whispered by nymphs and fauns wandering as you read, and photography that captures the spirit of the Mediterranean — offering an immersive passage into Italy’s culinary traditions, folklore, and way of life.

Bring a distillate of Italy into your kitchen — whether you’re stirring a Neapolitan ragù as rich as a feast for the gods or preparing a Tuscan dish fit for a countryside symposium, Simposio transports you to the soul of Italy, where every meal is a banquet beyond time.

The Banquet of Books

Each Simposio cookbook is a course in the eternal symposium — guiding you through Italy’s seasons, cities, and regions.

Simposio: Italian cookbook series

If you’re into real Italian food — the kind that still smells of firewood and wild herbs — this banquet is for you.
Tuscia’s Simposio is my latest cookbook. This symposium begins by opening an old cabinet in a country house: every shelf holds a story, every drawer conceals a recipe passed down through generations — manna for us symposiasts!
It’s made in Italy, steeped in local memory and Etruscan legend, where nymphs and gods still linger in the hills, and dishes that rarely travel beyond the village table.
