For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali spoke to restauranteur and writer Carina Contini about her new book The Contini Cookbook, published by Birlinn Books.
Carina runs a number of well-regarded establishments in Edinburgh with husband Victor, including Contini George Street, and the cookbook captures the ethos not only of what they do, but who the Contini Family are.
Written over a period of 10 years, Carina shares 100 tried-and-tested dishes close to her heart. She talks about why she wanted to write it, why now was the right time, what working in the restaurant trade means to her, her family background, and her experience of being Italian Scots (or, possibly, Scots Italian).
The two also discuss how the food industry in Scotland has changed over recent years and decades, as well as the challenges faced in hospitality today. And there there's the food itself!
This is a warm and insightful conversation, not only about food and drink, but about the role it plays in our lives, and other people's. And if you know someone who loves cooking, then SWH! can highly recommend The Contini Cookbook as the perfect gift.
