My husband’s mother immigrated into the United States when she was 9 years old and was fluent in speaking the Italian language. My husband grew up eating authentic Italian food, so as his wife…I had to learn to make a few Italian dishes along the way.
Thanks to this new cookbook, I can now try out some new recipes that go beyond the basics of lasagna, manicotti and baked ziti. I’m really excited to have this new one in my cookbook collection and looking forward to trying out many of the recipes within the book. All of the recipes look pretty easy-to-make and all of the foodie photography is mouth-watering and awe-inspiring!
