Decades later, in his latest book, Venetian Republic, Zoccali shares 80 recipes from the Republic’s three key regions: Venice and the surrounding Veneto, the Croatian coast and the Greek Islands.
Part culinary journey, part cookbook, Zoccali’s book takes his readers on a historical and gastronomic adventure around his favourite parts of the globe, celebrating, as he does, ingredients and techniques that encapsulate the influence and magnificence of the Venetian region.
