The Classic Italian Cook Book: The Art of Italian Cooking and the Italian Art of Eating

The book opens with the methods behind fresh pasta, explaining how to mix, roll and shape it by hand. It then gathers traditional dishes from Italy's regions, arranged by course. Readers will find recipes for antipasti, vegetables, salads, desserts and fruit, followed by first courses, second courses and cheese courses. The recipes are drawn from regional and traditional cooking, and the techniques are explained alongside the dishes so that a home cook can follow them step by step.
