Interesting but one serious flaw . . .,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Talisman Italian Cookbook (Hardcover)
I bought this book with high expectations. . . I wanted to consult a cookbook that was written for Italians and was considered authentic. This book was translated several decades ago and "adapted for american kitchens" which means that a lot of the recipes are translated using substitute ingredients that are not authentic. There are a lot more italian cooking ingredients available in grocery stores today than when this book was translated but the revision does not take account of it.

This review is from: The Talisman Italian Cookbook (Hardcover)
Talisman ccok book contains family recipes of the women who ran the kitchens in 19th and 20th century Sicily. The influence of Arabs and Spaniards who invaded Sicily is evident in the recipes whose ingredients seem exotic...but they are authentic. The products always taste wonderful and even novices de cuisine are delighted. So have fun with Talisman.

This review is from: The Talisman Italian Cookbook (Hardcover)
My mother had this. I got this one as a present. It's got all the 'old-world' recipes. I haven't tried them all, but it's got what I want.
