Book Reviews of Lidia's Italian-American Kitchen
Book Review: Fantastic!
Summary: 4 Stars
A few months ago I tried out a recipe for Penne alla Vodka from this book that was listed on epicurious.com. The directions were extremely easy to follow and the dish was positively delicious. Since then I had been raving about Lidia and her recipe to any cook who would listen. My mother and mother-in-law must have taken notice as I received two copies for Christmas this year. I have branched out to make several dishes from the book now and all have been thoroughly enjoyed. Don't miss out on the recipe for Sunday sauce (gravy) and the excellent instructions on seemingly intimidating techniques.
As a transplanted New Yorker currently living in London, I say with confidence that this cookbook is a must for anyone who has ever enjoyed a meal at one of the Bastianich family restaurants (Becco, Felidia, etc.) or just wants to learn how to make fabulous, comforting Italian-American food. I will be buying this book as a gift for friends for the forseeable future.
