5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, November 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: 365 Easy Italian Recipes Anniversary Edition (Hardcover)

We cook alot of Italian dishes and this book has not failed us yet. Veal Chops Stuffed with Spinich has become our favorite "company dish". When we aren't sure what we want for dinner or if we feel like trying something new, this is the first book we consult.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Underrated Classic, September 4, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: 365 Easy Italian Recipes (365 Ways Cookbooks) (Paperback)

This was the first cookbook I ever bought, back when I moved into my own apartment about 12 years ago. Many times I relied on the straightforward recipes and advice to easily create wonderful meals. These are the kinds of recipes you can knock off at a moment's notice, invite a few people over for dinner, and listen to them rave about your cooking for YEARS after that.

To keep in mind, they are mostly Italian-American recipes, so they're more hearty immigrant fare than complex northern italian-style (though there is a whole chapter on risotto - which breaks down the process so simply that literally anyone can make homemade risotto). Also no pictures, but every word of the text is helpful.

Very highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars We love this book!, May 5, 2003

This review is from: 365 Easy Italian Recipes. a John Boswell Associates Book (365 Ways Series) (Hardcover)

I originally got this book because I was looking for [an inexpensive] Italian cookbook. I had low expectations, just wanted a couple of quick recipes. Instead, I got one of the best cookbooks I have ever owned. My wife and I love this book and use it all the time. The recipes are usually very easy, and always delicious. We are constantly amazed at how good the food turns out.
