    I am a fan of this book, particularly the recipes for Maccu and Zuppa Di Magro alla Compagnola as Ribollita. Ribollita is one of my favorite cold weather soups, very tasty and warm like a hug.

      Half way through some recipes and you just know your creating something wonderful. This is one of them. The smell of this broth filling the house is worth the price of admission alone.

  • Creamy porcini soup (Crema di porcini)

    • David's Table

      ...both a first course for six and a main course for four. Your guest will be beyond impressed with its rich, luxurious texture and its depth of flavor. This is mushroom soup to the n-th power.

Publishers Text

Italian cooks are masters of the art of preparing simmering soups and stews that showcase seasonal ingredients at their very best. Domenica Marchetti reveals their secrets with The Glorious Soups and Stews of Italy, a collection of more than 60 exceptional, authentic recipes that celebrate each season in the Italian tradition. On a rainy day in fall, nothing takes the chill off like a bowl of Crema di Ceci con Maltagliati, a hearty, rustic soup of puréed chickpeas and pasta drizzled with fresh olive oil. In winter, La Genovese di Signora Venditti, a rich ragu of slow-cooked beef and sweet onions, will surely lift the spirits. Vellutata di Asparagi con Orzo Perlato, a delicately flavored, creamy soup of tender asparagus, sweet fennel, and pearled barley makes a perfect spring welcome. And when summer comes, Zuppa di Cozze e Vongole Piccante, a spicy stew of mussels, clams, and ripe garden tomatoes is perfect for a casual dinner party. With practical information on equipment, seasonal and pantry ingredients, and a delicious mix of vanishing classics, regional specialties, treasured family recipes, and contemporary creations, The Glorious Soups and Stews of Italy is a book to be savored throughout the year.
