This is "kind of' a biography of Audrey Hepburn, written by her son. The emphasis is on food - the food she grew up with, the food she loved. Plain food, but excellent, that spoke to my farm roots. Home grown tomatoes are stressed. Audrey loved pasta, and why not? She cooked whole fresh tomatoes, onion, carrot, celery, added basil and strained the mixture to remove seeds and peel. The accompanying pictures shows a serving 1/4 the size Americans serve, and a much thinner sauce.
Chocolate cake (to be served with whipped cream) has 5 ingredients - chocolate, milk, butter, eggs and sugar.
Ms. Hepburn grew up in Europe, during WWII, and travelled there intensively as an adult. That serves here as a background to food.
Absolutely a worthwhile read to foodies like me, who love cookbooks.

Audrey in Rome was my first time flipping through a book of Audrey Hepburn pictures. Her son, Luca Dotti, curated the photographs – with the purpose of presenting some that were little seen to the public – but most of the photos seemed to be publicity shots, and Audrey attending dinners and events. Very few were private family photos. I didn’t know a lot about Audrey Hepburn, so I enjoyed the anecdotes, and info surrounding her life and movies. While this is nice and easy to flip through, I doubt that die-hard Audrey fans will find much here that will be new for them.… (plus d'informations)
