Download or read book My Father s Book of Southern Italian Peasant Food written by Peter J. Fusco and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This isn't just another Italian cookbook. There are no pictures, no frills, no dramatic or artistic culinary statements requiring professional expertise. This is a book of over 240 recipes codified from the oral traditions of immigrant Italians who came to America in the great wave of the early 20th century with one cooking credo, waste nothing, use everything and make it all taste good. Unlike cookbooks that make a similar claim, the recipes in this book aren't taken from someone's memory of what Grandma used to make, nor are they products of variations on or “healthy” perversions of the original cuisine, they are the original cuisine as compiled by a man with the keenest foresight.While a student at Ithaca College in the 1930s, the author's father, Michael C. Fusco would often return home to Binghamton, New York to work in his father's restaurant. With itinerant cooks and myriad chefs coming and going all the time, he realized the necessity of keeping their recipes in-house for the sake of consistency as well as popularity. The “pinch of this” and “a little of that” way most cooks of the day prepared their dishes guaranteed the opposite outcome, so he began the tedious process of shadowing the “professionals”, including his mother, father and other relatives as well as the cooks and chefs, measuring the ingredients they used, observing their techniques and writing everything down in a notebook he kept until the day he passed away in 1992. Thus the recipes in “My Father's Book Of Southern Italian Peasant Food” are true and accurate renditions of those prepared in the early part of the 20th century with some additions of Peter Fusco's which he believes reflect the spirit of the book and also the realities of a changing world when it comes to ingredients.If you are a serious foodie, someone who wants to taste Italian food the way it was originally intended, this cookbook will become your treasured kitchen companion. After cooking with it you will agree, the great beauty of Southern Italian peasant food rests in the fact that a king would not know that it is.

Download or read book Italian Baking Secrets written by Father Giuseppe Orsini and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. 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.
Download or read book Cooking Rice with an Italian Accent written by Father Giuseppe Orsini and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems safe to say that most Americans whose roots are not in Italy consider pasta the foundation of Italian cuisine (with the possible exception of those who don't see beyond pizza). There's justification in that, of course: In Italy pasta is indeed ever present, in hundreds of forms, served alone and in combination with just about any edible meat, plant, or seafood one can think of, and with an endless variety of sauces, even one named for she who practices the oldest profession. But wait till you see the great dishes that Father Orsini has brought you from the farms and cooks of northern Italy, wonderful dishes based on--rice! No matter what you think, rice was not brought to Italy by Marco Polo. The techniques of rice farming (and presumably some seeds or cuttings) came to Italy in the ninth century with the Arab invasion of Sicily. Rice farming prospered against great odds, thanks to the determination and hard work of Sicilian farmers and the money of the Sicilian elite. And even though Father Orsini's own roots are in the country's south, he readily concedes that northern Italy has raised cooking rice to an art. Cooking Rice with an Italian Accent! will guide you through that art museum of Sicilian rice dishes, with everything from delicious soups (Minestre) to desserts (Dolci), a whole chapter on a fabulous selection of risotti (Risotto, that's right! How'd you guess?), and enough marvelous and often unsuspected rice dishes of many kinds to send you off to the store for a Great Big Bag of Rice. Father Orsini is an experienced cookbook author and an experienced chef, and his readers needn't fear that his recipes are difficult or complicated to follow. They taste really special, but the good father has made them as easy to put together as they are delicious to eat. The history of rice is a bonus for the intelligence; the recipes--from Minestrone to Rice Pudding--are the basic gift for your honest hunger. What more could you ask?

Download or read book Sacrifice written by Alessandro Orsini and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alessandro Orsini is one of Italy's premier analysts of political extremism. His investigation of the beliefs and mind-sets of Europe's political fringe has largely focused on anarchist and far-left groups, but in Sacrifice he turns his inquiry to the rapidly expanding neofascist movement. He joined local groups of a neofascist organization he names Sacrifice in two neighboring cities with very different political cultures. In this gripping, "insider" book, which features dialogues with various militia members, Orsini shows how fascists live day to day, how they understand their world, and how they build a parallel universe in which the correctness and probity of their attitudes are clear. Orsini describes the long, troubled process by which these two groups slowly accepted him as an investigatoractivist and later expelled him for his ideologically uncommitted stance and refusal to subject his observations to censorship. His activities as a fascist were often mundane: leafleting, distributing food parcels to the indigent, and attending public rallies. In Sacrifice, Orsini describes from within the masculine ethos of the militias, the groups' relations with local police and politicians, and the central role of violence and anticommunist actions in building a sense of fascist community.
