In the port city of Livorno, host Pete Evans is joined by two chef-authors with U.S. roots: Bryan Voltaggio, who visits from Maryland, and Pamela Sheldon Johns, who has called Tuscany home for more than 20 years. Seasonal, local, and traditional flavors have inspired this seaside episode of Moveable Feast with Fine Cooking; first, Pete visits Prosciutto di Parma to learn about this geographically protected delicacy. Then he meets up with Bryan and Pamela to tour the city's Venetian-style canals and browse the 19th-century style Mercato Centrale for local produce. From the regional classic cacciucco, a tomato-based seafood stew, to a flavorful bordadito, a polenta and bean crostini, this feast embodies the spirit of Livorno in its unpretentious character and coastal integrity.
