A Tuscan-American Kitchen

By Cassandra Vivian and Vivian Sansone

This definitive Italian cookbook presents more than 250 kitchen-tested recipes, along with five essays and illustrated, step-by-step instructions for the essentials of Italian cooking, such as stuffing an artichoke, making cannelloni, identifying dozens of types of pasta, and more. In addition to the well-known pastas, breads, and meats, the recipes include canapes, sweets, baccal 1/2, chicken galatine, soups, vegetables, porchetta, sausage, salami, and other cured meats. Indexes and recipe listings in both Italian and English and a complete chapter devoted to the gran fritto misto (the Italian method for frying meats and vegetables) complete this wholesome and hearty celebration of homemade Tuscan cooking.
