Description

|
|
Respect for the land, and particularly for the produce of the seasons, is the first cooking lesson Maria Grazia Stranieri remembers learning from her grandmother in their Calabria kitchen. Here she explains the essence of Italian cooking, and everything from the tools you'll want handy to using oils, herbs, and cheeses—and how to make your own pasta. Among some 100 recipes here are Mushroom Ragu, Wedding Soup with Meatballs, Mozzarella and Dried Tomato Salad, Grilled Eggplant Pizza, Spaghetti Carbonara, Pasta with Shrimp and Lemon Sauce, Gnocchi Roman Style, Risotto with Asparagus, Duck alla Scappi, Pork Sausage in Wine, Grilled Portobello Mushrooms, Tiramisu, and Espresso Gelato. A bit like having your own cooking teacher, this cookbook from the Knack series breaks down recipes into logical components that all come together to make a delicious dish. Each recipe is spread across two pages, with an introduction, sidebar, variations, and three color photos, and the book begins with a substantial introduction to the basic ingredients, techniques, and equipment needed for Italian cooking.
