Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review
Cristina Ferrare has been many things at different times--famous model, wife, mother, TV hostess--but she has always been a cook. And not just any kind of cook, but a good Italian girl whose well-used recipes for risotto, osso buco, and tiramisu were handed down from her mother and grandmother. She must have also inherited their great metabolism, as there's no nonsense about low-calorie this or low-fat that; the menus Ferrare feeds her healthy family and lucky friends explode with the kind of rich, old-fashioned flavor that you can't get by poaching instead of sautéing.

Everything about this book is charming: the photographs, the recipes, the brightly colored page edges, the artless sense of party planning, the many tips for decorating the table, and especially Ferrare's gleeful family stories. She's bursting with pride in the beloved people she serves this hearty fare to, and her delight is infectious. This is happy food for happy people. Eat and be well. --Barrie Trinkle

Product Description
Filled with ideas for making every day a celebration of home, family, and food, this lavishly illustrated book contains menus, over 150 recipes, gift and decorating ideas, and most of all, Ferrare's sense of what makes a meal truly magical. Full-color photos throughout 5-city author tour. Print ads .

5.0 out of 5 stars My Most Used Cookbook, June 8, 2000
By A Customer
This book has the BEST recipes that are very easy and different. I bought it for her rice pudding recipe and it did not disappoint. Try her Marinated turkey, salads and soups. Very nice cookbook and I recommend it to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best cookbook I have ever owned, November 20, 2004
By Jelene Morris "jelene.com" (Columbia, South Carolina) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When this book came out in 1998, I special ordered it before it hit the shelves. I was a huge fan of the Home and Family show with Cristina and Michael, and was sad to see the show end, but Cristina's book is a wonderful addition to anyone's kitchen. I make her marinated thanksgiving turkey and dressing every year, and get raves from friends and family. I had never made a turkey before and the first time I made it several years back, it turned out devine. I would highly recommend this cookbook to anyone, and it also makes an awesome gift for Christmas!
