Enza Genovese was born in Trapani in 1956, on the western coast of Sicily, 'the city of the two seas'. Like many Sicilians at the time, in 1961 her parents left to settle in Montpellier, France, where they started a Sicilian grocery store that Enza managed for many years. Enza hs regularly travelled around Italy in search of new and exciting products, maintaining a strong link with her mother country. This culminated in her book, Sicily, a collection of recipes that pay tribute to both her parents' home cooking and the rich gastronomic tradition of the island. The COVID period having made travel to Italy impossible, she had time to realize an old dream: to create a book of family recipes, the ones that we find on every table every day and which have rocked her life, as well as those of her children and even grandchildren. After having listed around 250 recipes, we have retained 60 with Mango editions to constitute this first book dedicated to Sicily. This book is a beautiful tribute to her mother's cooking and her father's work, at the same time it is the culmination of a life of work in the service of Italian gastronomy.
