About This Item
Originally published in 1590, this is the second edition of this rare poem in praise of the pork. Written in the form of a eulogy the author, praises the part of the pig and briefly discusses their preparation and the delicate flavor that each can achieve under the direction of a master chef. The author is unknown other than for this publication, and it may be surmised that having been originally published in Bologna, its' publication is a celebration of the quality of the beast and many gifts if offers to a hungry and adoring public.
This title is cited in the Italian Union Catalogue (SBN ICCU) but only the 1590 edition and specific copy is listed. It does not appear in OCLC or NUC.
See Westbury, Handlist of Italian Cookery Books, p. 30, listing only the 1592 edition. Not cited in Vicaire or Biting. Maria Paleari Henssler cites the title in her book Bibliografia latino-italiana di gastronomia, p. 87 but no location is listed. This is probably the Westbury copy!
