"In 100 Ways to Be Pasta the Tornabenes weave memoir and
history together with the vivid flavors of local village
life, bringing us a true taste of Sicilian culture and
cuisine. They incorporate lessons from basic pasta-cooking
techniques to secret tips from old masters, and include an
extensive glossary of pasta vocabulary, a dictionary of
pasta types, and of course a generous sprinkling of
anecdotes and advice." "All of this serves as a delightful
setting for the one hundred authentic, mouth-watering
recipes, lovingly honed and perfected in the old abbey
kitchen. From quick, easy basics, like spaghetti with
garlic, oil, and hot pepper or farfalle with peas and
prosciutto, to traditional pasta soups like minestrone, to
more elaborate baked and stuffed pastas like Baked
Orecchiette with Lamb Ragu and Melted Mozzarella or Baked
Timbale of Anelletti with Veal and Vegetables, each recipe
serves up a little piece of Sicily for your very own
kitchen." As informative and useful to the beginner as to
the experienced Italian cook, 100 Ways to Be Pasta is a
must-have and a treasure for any cookbook shelf.
