Book Description

April 1, 2005
The essence of Italian cooking is its reliance on superb ingredients and on simple cooking methods, both of which are the basis of An Invitation to Italian Cooking. Each recipe is overlaid with the personal touches that make Antonio Carluccio's cookbooks so popular and instructive—his memories of growing up in the Italian countryside, and of traveling his native land, cooking and learning about authentic local dishes and ingredients. From Risotto con Porcini, a famed specialty of Piedmont, to the Roman favorite, Carciofi alla Giudea (Jewish Artichokes), and Cannoli alla Siciliana—Antonio demonstrates his mastery of the complete Italian eating experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Italian Cookbooks around...., June 18, 1999
By A Customer
This is THE book you should buy if you want to learn or improve your Italian cooking. Every recipe works perfectly... pasta, pizza, risotto... my copy is dogeared and smeared with putanesca sauce... try the aubergine parmesan ... sublime!!!
