Abstract:
"Stuzzichini ("stoo-zih-kini") are Italian bar snacks, traditionally served alongside Negronis and Aperol Spritzes at aperitivo hour from the Tuscan countryside to Sicilian beachfront cafes. Let this magical tradition inspire your next gathering, or snack time, happy hour or movie night. It's time to relax like an Italian. Stuzzichini is your guide to elevated snacking and capturing just a touch of that sun-soaked piazza energy, chilled Spritz in hand!"-- Provided by publisher.
