Download or read book Sauces Shapes Pasta the Italian Way written by Oretta Zanini De Vita and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the International Association of Culinary Association (IACP) Award The indispensable cookbook for genuine Italian sauces and the traditional pasta shapes that go with them. Pasta is so universally popular in the United States that it can justifiably be called an American food. This book makes the case for keeping it Italian with recipes for sauces and soups as cooked in Italian homes today. There are authentic versions of such favorites as carbonara, bolognese, marinara, and Alfredo, as well as plenty of unusual but no less traditional sauces, based on roasts, ribs, rabbit, clams, eggplant, arugula, and mushrooms, to name but a few. Anyone who cooks or eats pasta needs this book. The straightforward recipes are easy enough for the inexperienced, but even professional chefs will grasp the elegance of their simplicity. Cooking pasta the Italian way means: Keep your eye on the pot, not the clock. Respect tradition, but don’t be a slave to it. Choose a compatible pasta shape for your sauce or soup, but remember they aren’t matched by computer. (And that angel hair goes with broth, not sauce.) Use the best ingredients you can find—and you can find plenty on the Internet. Resist the urge to embellish, add, or substitute. But minor variations usually enhance a dish. How much salt? Don’t ask, taste! Serving and eating pasta the Italian way means: Use a spoon for soup, not for twirling spaghetti. Learn to twirl; never cut. Never add too much cheese, and often add none at all. Toss the cheese and pasta before adding the sauce. Warm the dishes.Serve pasta alone. The salad comes after. To be perfectly proper, use a plate, not a bowl. The authors are reluctant to compromise because they know how good well-made pasta can be. But they keep their sense of humor and are sympathetic to all well-intentioned readers.

Book excerpt: “Italy is a beautiful but complicated place, not so much a country as a collection of cultures and cuisines. Matt Goulding expertly navigates it’s wonders and eccentricities with wisdom and great passion.” -Anthony Bourdain "Goulding is pioneering a new type of writing about food." -Financial Times This is not a cookbook. This is something more: a travelogue, a patient investigation of Italy’s cuisine, a loving profile of the everyday heroes who bring Italy to the table. Pasta, Pane, Vino is the latest edition of the genre-bending Roads & Kingdoms style pioneered under Anthony Bourdain’s imprint in Rice, Noodle, Fish ( 2016 Travel Book of the Year, Society of American Travel Writers ) and Grape, Olive, Pig ( 2017 IACP Award, Literary Food Writing). Town by town, bite by bite, author Matt Goulding brings Italy to life through intimate portraits of its food culture and the people pushing it in new directions: Three globe-trotting brothers who became the mozzarella kings of Puglia; the pizza police of Naples and the innovative pies that stay one step ahead of the rules; the Barolo Boys who turned the hilly Piedmont into one of the world’s great wine regions. Goulding’s writing has never been better, in complete harmony with the book's innovative design and the more than 200 lush color photographs that introduce the chefs, shepherds, fisherman, farmers, grandmas, and guardians who power this country’s extraordinary culinary traditions. From the pasta temples of Rome to the multicultural markets of Sicily to the family-run, fish-driven trattorias of Lake Como, Pasta, Pane, Vino captures the breathtaking diversity of Italian regional food culture.
Download or read book Once Upon an Italian Table written by Jan Greco and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what it would be like to through caution to the wind and truly follow your heart? Well, as they say, be careful what you wish for; one woman found out when she risked everything to start life anew, and ended up surrounded by Italians. Not being of Italian heritage definitely complicated an already impossible situation, but was ultimately responsible for helping her find her true self in the kitchen. With unquestionable aversion to the path suddenly before her, the reader is along for a humorous ride as she immerses herself in all things Italian, while attempting to blend a family of her own. For her ambitious efforts she not only earns a place at the table, but ends up with an Italian table of her own and the family of her dreams. Included are some favorite recipes, entertaining language lessons, and her secret for blending families. A native Southern Californian, Jan Greco's educational focus was in preparation for positions in the accounting profession. While raising her family and attending college, she also did assistant teaching of math and English in elementary schools. For twenty years she was controller and office manager for her husband's prominent mechanical contracting firm. They closed the business several years ago, and retired to a very different, unstructured lifestyle in the mountains of Lake Arrowhead. The peace and solitude of such a beautiful resort became the catalyst for recording the amazing journey of her second helping in life. She and her favorite Italian now divide their time between homes in the desert of La Quinta, and a community across from the harbor in Dana Point. All their children have remained close and well within driving distance of either residence so the whole family can be together whenever she sets her Italian table.

Download or read book 300 per hour written by Mathilde Davril and published by Max Milo. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I am Mathilde, alias Mathilda. I am 37 years old and I prostitute myself to be a free woman. I have been an executive assistant, a sales manager in media, a communication manager for an employers' confederation and a company director in business aviation. But I was a precarious woman, being used for a low price, like a great majority of women in France. In parallel to my work activities, I became an escort to get out of my social condition and not be a free and disposable object anymore. I have been leading this double life for 10 years in Lyon; and today men, but also women, respect me for what I am. I like this life and I embrace it fully." Like 5% to 10% prostitutes in France (and certainly many more), Mathilde engages in this profession freely and without constraint, to no longer be the prey of males and a patriarchal society. Free, authentic and without pretense, she takes the reader on a journey of discovery of a profession that fascinates and that no one talks about in this way. With a provocative but always human tone, she reveals with strength and fragility her non-conformist universe and her atypical personality. From her family to her friends, from her lovers to her clients, from her jobs to her first trick, Mathilde shares her way of life openly because her reality does not need to be hidden. Mathilde Davril has worked as an executive assistant in the nuclear industry, as a sales manager in media, as a communications manager in employers' confederations and as a company manager in the business aviation industry in the Lyon area. Born into a working class family, in which love was much more valuable than money, she has not experienced violence, rape or abuse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DescriptionThis compelling and poignant memoir tells about the journey through the disease of Anorexia, the recovery process, and all that comes with it-the hurt, hope and humor. After almost dying from the disease, and being neglected by the doctors, the author sought recovery and spent seven weeks at an inpatient facility. In her powerful story, she digs into the depths of Anorexia and describes how her simple diet and exercise program turned into a horrific eating disorder-one that controlled her life and forced her to go to the gym every day for four hours and reduce her diet to only fruit. After almost suffering from a heart attack and amazed that she was still alive, she knew she had to save herself and get treatment. Today, she is a survivor. By telling her story of the disease and recovery process, she not only educates the reader about eating disorders, but also shares with them a secret world unknown to many, and most importantly, that there is hope and recovery is possible.
