Italian Family Cooking: Like Mamma Used to Make

Truly one of the best cook books out there for the home cook or experienced chef. Easy to follow and all receipes are just terrific. (I know, I have made them all) Makes a terrific gift for any level of cook.

A great Italian cookbook for beginners and more

This was my first cookbook 18 years ago. I still have it and use it regularly. The recipes are easy to follow and not overly complex. The dishes range from basic to solid to spectacular. Lots to choose from. The lasagna recipe has become our traditional Christmas Eve dinner and gets used many other times in the year. Excellent choice for part of a basic cookbook set.

Magnificent for beginners

This book offers menus that have the true taste of Italy. The menus are fantastic supplying your family with several meals throughout the week; leaving you more time for other activities and less time in the kitchen. Using this cookbook and some of these delicious meals on the menu, twice a week is all that is needed to keep your family healthy, happy, and well fed!
