A Great Book for Pasta Lovers

IF you love pasta, you MUST have this book. I have made so many of the dishes in it and everyone loves them! Instructions are very easy to follow too!

Another Great From Biba

This book is definately one any Italian cook should have in their reference library. As the owner of over one hundred Italian cookbooks myself, this book is one I often find myself using. There is a great mix of recipes, both traditional and those with a contmporary twist, but all the recipes I've tried have been superb. As the Italian Cooking Host @ Bella Online, I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Italian cuisine.

Another Wonderful Book By Biba!

Another WONDERFUL Book by Biba!The Queen of Italian Cuisine! She has written a beautiful book with easy recipies and beautiful pictures...Not quite as good as her others but is a strong contender...

Biba writes from her soul and cooks from her heart.

I have been following Biba Caggiano's work for the past 15 or more years and she still amazes me. Her cookbooks are always the best for Italian Food I have ever found. She seems to find recipies that always work and come out the way they should. Her cooking show on TLC was as good as her books and is dearly missed. If anyone get's a chance to visit her restaurant in Sacramento, California please do so... Probably the best Italian Restaurant in the USA..From her first cookbook to her most recent they are books that need to be in every kitchen..I would not want to be in the kitchen cooking without my friend Biba!!!!
