Review Grandma Aggie Yummy Italian Recipes and More! / Biographical Publishing Company:My mother was the best cook in the world and back then there were no culinary schools which she did not need anyway. You will find a lot of her recipes in my book. My cookbook contains some recipes of older Italian meals. These meals will zap a lot of memories for a lot of people of their grandmother's cooking and others. Most of the recipes in my cookbook are recipes that I created. The page to the left of each recipe is my little synopsis of the recipe, different ways to prepare it and most of all, I believe my own recipes are geared for the working mother who does not have a whole lot of time or energy to prepare time consuming meals when they get home from work. They will learn after preparing a meal from my book that when it is brought to the table, it will appear that she spent a lot of time preparing it. I make it easier by cutting corners (in a good way); I add a lot of flavor to my recipes; and most of all my meals are healthy and delicious meals (i. e. , I watch the fat intake by taking the skin off chicken before cooking it) and as you read the different recipes, you will find my comments to be very helpful. [+]An example of one of my recipes would be my Sloppy Joe recipe. If you read the page to the left where I talk about this recipe, you will notice that the title reads: Sloppy Joes without the Heartburn. It does get the reader's attention and I have had so many comments about this. They just love it! Of course, I will tell you how to prepare this to avoid the heartburn. Simple to prepare, delicious and you will be so proud of yourself and I think you will love me forever!.

Review Lidia's Family Table: More Than 200 Fabulous Recipes to Enjoy Every Day-With Wonderful Ideas for Variations and Improvisations / Knopf:The best-loved and most-admired of all America’s television cooks today, Lidia Bastianich, now gives us her most generous, instructive, and creative cookbook. The emphasis here is on cooking for the family, and her book is filled with unusually delicious basic recipes for everyday eating Italian-style, as well as imaginative ideas for variations and improvisations. Here are more than 200 fabulous new dishes that will appeal both to Lidia’s loyal following, who have come to rely on her wonderfully detailed recipes, and to the more adventurous cook ready to experiment. • She welcomes us to the table with tasty bites from the sea (including home-cured tuna and mackerel), seasonal salads, and vegetable surprises (Egg-Battered Zucchini Roll-Ups, Sweet Onion Gratinate). • She reveals the secret of simple make-ahead soup bases, delicious on their own and easy to embellish for a scrumptious soup that can make a meal. • She opens up the wonderful world of pasta, playing with different shapes, mixing and matching, and creating sauces while the pasta boils; she teaches us to make fresh egg pastas, experimenting with healthful ingredients–whole wheat, chestnut, buckwheat, and barley. And she makes us understand the subtle arts of polenta- and risotto-making as never before. • She shares her love of vegetables, skillet-cooking some to intensify their flavor, layering some with yesterday’s bread for a lasagna-like gratin, blanketing a scallop of meat with sautéed vegetables, and finishing seasonal greens with the perfect little sauce. • She introduces us to some lesser-known cuts of meats for main courses (shoulders, butts, and tongue) and underused, delicious fish (skate and monkfish), as well as to her family’s favorite recipes for chicken and a beautiful balsamic-glazed roast turkey. • And she explores with us the many ways fruits and crusts (pie, strudel, cake, and toasted bread) marry and produce delectable homey desserts to end the meal. [+]Lidia’s warm presence is felt on every page of this book, explaining the whys and wherefores of what she is doing, and the brilliant photographs take us right into her home, showing her rolling out pasta with her grandchildren, bringing in the summer harvest, and sitting around the food-laden family table. As she makes every meal a celebration, she invites us to do the same, giving us confidence and joy in the act of cooking. Warm and calmly authoritative, Lidia Bastianich has won the trust of many cooks, who also devour her TV shows and books including Lidia's Italian Table and Lidia's Italian-American Kitchen. Lidia's Family Table also presents homey Italian fare-savory dishes like Cauliflower Soup with Poached Garlic Purée; Potato, Leek, and Bacon Ravioli; Skillet Green Beans with Gorgonzola; and Grilled Tuna Rollatini Under Tomato-Lemon Marinade-over 200 recipes in all. But Family Table is equally about technique; readers will find it crammed with instructive asides like "Using 'Pasta Water' to Make a Quick Sauce" (the water's starchiness can add body to sauces) and "Reduced Wine Vinegar for Vegetables" (heat-concentrated vinegar makes a deliciously mellow seasoning). But the teaching doesn't stop there. Bastianich's discussions of risotto and polenta are particularly good (when preparing risotto, for example, the liquid must simmer for the dish to become properly toothsome), while a section on quick skillet sauces, like one made with sausage, onions, and fennel, will get many readers to the kitchen pronto. Bastianich also offers advice for preparing lesser-known yet attractive meat cuts like shoulder and butt, as well as quick-take recipes for the likes of whole corn cooked in tomato sauce and eggplant with scrambled eggs. The Bastianich approach also applies to the dessert section, which offers simple fruit-based sweets like Fig Focaccia, and Crostata with Poached Apricots and Pignolala. (Included, too, are a number of simple strudel recipes, a bow to the cooking of Istria, Bastianich's birthplace. ) Color photos make succinct technical points as well as showing Lidia's extended family at table and very much in action. -Arthur Boehm.

Review Sussex Recipe Book: With a Few Excursions into Kent (Southover Press Historic Cookery and Housekeeping) / Southover Press:M. K. Samuelson, realising that there was no collection of Sussex recipes, set about making her own. This was first published in 1937 but World War II prevented a reprint. Southover reprinted it in 2005 in response to the renewed interest in regional food. The author was lucky to own a large collection of cookery books herself and luckier that in those days, many local families still kept family recipe books. Many of the mouth-watering dishes in this collection go back to the early 18th century and even earlier. In addition to the recipes, the book includes an introduction by contemporary food writer and broadcaster Hattie Ellis as well as a note by Catherine Mant, grandaughter of the author and former Assistant Editor of The Good Food Guide.

Review The Classic Food of Northern Italy / Trafalgar Square:Contains over 150 recipes of northern Italy, from classics to new discoveries. The cooking from this part of the world is particularly rich and complex, and features increasingly on the menus of British, French and American masterchefs. In exploring each of the regions, this book contrasts, compares and celebrates the extreme regionality of Italian cooking: in Piedmont the beef is braised in Barolo wine; in Venzia-Giulia it becomes goulash, while Genova adds a touch of the sea - anchovy fillets - to its braised beef. The tour covers Lombardy, Val d'Aosta, Piedmont, Le Tre Venezie, Liguria, Tuscany and Umbria, Le Marche and Emilia Romagna - this last region recognized generally as the culinary epicentre of Italy.
