But don?t let the author?s charming storytelling keep you from his recipes; if you do, you will miss some delicious and easy-to-make dishes you might otherwise never taste---and once tasted, you will want to make them again and again.

Cookbooks
Italian Baking Secrets is Father Orsini’s sixth
cookbook, and once again the reader gets not only wonderful
recipes from the great tasting cuisine of Italy, but the
“retired” priest’s entertaining comments. Father
Orsini knows how to make good food great, and his directions
come with the bonus of his wide knowledge.
The book begins with what to most of us is an
amazing story: how the use of grain developed as long ago
as---or possibly even prior to---the Neolithic period.
Orsini tells us about the grains that were raised---and
eaten---more than eight thousand years ago. Through
charming and fascinating anecdotes, he lets us see the way
bread has evolved, from flat loaves baked on hot stones to
the myriad breads that have evolved in Italy alone---making
our mouths water to hear about them.
