Publishers Text

Almost everyone has a few favorite pastas and maybe a salad or roasted meat that come from Italian recipes. But wouldn't it be wonderful to have an actual old world mother in the kitchen, dispensing advice, sharing family secrets, and discussing the origins of this or that recipe Well, here she is. Giancarlo Caldesi's mother and grandmother generously divulge the tips and reminders that give certain dishes that extra authentic Italian zing. The seven chapters in The Italian Mama's Kitchen cover everything from breakfast to antipasti to dolci, with 100 recipes that include Radicchio and Pecorino Toasts; Tomato, Cucumber, and Bread Salad; Butterfly Pasta with Fresh Peas; Stuffed Chicken; and mouth-watering Tiramisu. For the Italian food lover in all of us, here's the opportunity to soak up the history and traditions of one of America's most popular cuisines with the motherly advice of an Italian home cook.
