Cookbook offers in-depth exploration of Italian cuisine

We’re headed to Italy this hour for a culinary tour de force courtesy of a new cookbook that will transport us all over the country to little-known towns and villages.

We're talking about authentic recipes created and inspired by the people and places in Italy.

If you think you know Italy and Italian cooking, think again. You’re sure to learn something new.

Guest:

• J.M. Hirsch, editorial director of Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street/co-author, Milk Street Backroads Italy: Finding Italy’s Forgotten Recipes
