  “Filled with classic recipes, creative innovations . . . The world of twice-baked sweets might seem challenging to new bakers, but Marchetti is a good coach.” —Chicago Tribune 
   
  Ciao Biscotti is a collection of forty-four authentic biscotti from Italian cooking expert Domenica Marchetti. Studded with nuts, adorned with chocolate, or dotted with dried fruit, biscotti, Italy’s unique twice-baked cookies have a crunchy, toasty, enduring appeal. Perfect for dunking into coffee, tea, or Vin Santo, they’re easy to make; and transform a simple bowl of ice cream or sorbet into a special dessert. With savory ingredients swapped for the sweet ones, biscotti are a delicious accent to a cheese platter. Nibble on traditional flavors such as Hazelnut or Anise, coffeehouse neo-classics like Christmas Cranberry-Pistachio, tempting new versions such as Browned Butter and Toblerone, or savory ones, including Mountain Gorgonzola and Walnut, and taste the perfection of a classic cookie. Ciao biscotti!

  Keto Mediterranean : Keto Clean Lean, outlines the latest evolution of the popular keto diet—clean keto! Clean keto prioritizes good health with fresh meats and organic produce. You will lose weight just like you would on the old keto diet—you just don’t have to sacrifice your health to do it. 
  Greek clean keto is a riff on the Mediterranean food lifestyle proposed by Greek nutritionist Apollonas Kapsalis and his wife Roberta. Regular keto diets, sometimes called dirty keto, only focus on meeting diet macros—the ratio of fats, proteins, and carbs. That’s why standard keto is called dirty keto. There’s no concern about the quality of foods you should eat. 
  Fast food and processed meats that are loaded with chemicals, sodium, and potential carcinogens are on the menu! Those types of foods put us at risk of diseases, from heart attack to stroke to Type 2 diabetes, even cancer. People who are overweight or obese tend to make poor food choices. Why would anyone propose a diet plan that continues them? 
  Greek clean keto is the alternative. Learn what to eat, where to buy, and what to avoid when you shop. There’s a how-to on starting the plan, broken out for keto beginners and people rejecting dirty keto. The book is informative and easy to read, covering a variety of diet and health related topics. 
  Author Susan Zeppieri is a well known nutritionist who researches diet plans and their health benefits. “The focus on disease prevention, organic ingredients and adherence to Mediterranean cuisine is a positive step up for ketogenic diets,” says Zeppieri. If you want to lose weight safely on a low carb diet, “Greeks Go Keto Mediterranean” is the book you’ve been looking for. Eat well,

  This in-depth tour of the French winemaking regions illustrates how the soil, underlying bedrock, and microclimate shape the personality of a wine. 
   
  France has long been the world’s greatest wine-producing country. Its various regions each offer unique tasting experiences, from the spice of Bordeaux to the berry notes of the Loire Valley. In Land and Wine, geologist Charles Frankel guides readers through these and ten other regions, including Alsace, Burgundy, Champagne, Provence, and the Rhône valley, to explore the full meaning of terroir. 
   
  Frankel describes how Cabernet Franc takes on a completely different character depending on whether it is grown on gravel or limestone; how Sauvignon yields three different products in the hills of Sancerre; how Pinot Noir will give radically different wines on a single hill in Burgundy as the vines progress upslope; and how the soil of each château in Bordeaux has a say in the blend ratios of Merlot and Cabernet-Sauvignon. 
   
  Land and Wine provides a detailed understanding of the variety of French wine as well as a look at the geological history of France, complete with volcanic eruptions, dinosaurs, and a menagerie of fossils flavoring the vineyards. Frankel also blends in anecdotes about winemakers and historic wine enthusiasts while offering travel tips and itineraries for visiting the wineries today.
