16 Things Food Editors Are Shopping For This July

"Rachel Roddy's Two Kitchens: Family Recipes From Sicily and Rome ($20) is the sort of cookbook you'll want to read cover to cover curled up in bed, for its storytelling is evocative, engaging, and transportive. It is also the sort of cookbook you'll want to cook from season after season, as the recipes bring the best of regional Italian cooking to your home and are flavorful rather than fussy. Some I'm particularly eager to try: potato, onion, and caper salad; cauliflower cakes; Spring onions wrapped in pancetta; lentil and chestnut soup; and peaches poached with Rosé and honey." — NP
