Almost everyone has a few favorite pastas and maybe a salad or roasted meat that come from Italian recipes. But wouldn’t it be wonderful to have an actual old world mother in the kitchen, dispensing advice, sharing family secrets, and discussing the origins of this or that recipe? Well, here she is. Giancarlo Caldesi’s mother and grandmother generously divulge the tips and reminders that give certain dishes that extra authentic Italian zing. The seven chapters in The Italian Mama's Kitchen cover everything from breakfast to antipasti to dolci, with 100 recipes that include Radicchio and Pecorino Toasts; Tomato, Cucumber, and Bread Salad; Butterfly Pasta with Fresh Peas; Stuffed Chicken; and mouth-watering Tiramisu. For the Italian food lover in all of us, here's the opportunity to soak up the history and traditions of one of America’s most popular cuisines with the motherly advice of an Italian home cook.

Especially recommended for beginners who want an easy, solid, authentic guide,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Italian Mama's Kitchen: Authentic Homestyle Recipes (Hardcover)
If it's authentic home-style Italian food which is desired, enjoy a hundred Tuscan country favorites from Mama Caldesi and family in The Italian Mama's Kitchen: Authentic Homestyle Recipes. Color photos appear on facing pages of recipes for many of the dishes, with Polenta, Tuna in Tomatoes, Hare Ragu and Pasta with Forgotten Cheeses presenting some lovely classics alongside lesser-known dishes. Especially recommended for beginners who want an easy, solid, authentic guide.
