Not only are his grandparent's part of the story but, aunts, uncles and close family friends are tied to recipes and interesting stories that make each recipe a true treasure. The theme is Italian cooking but other popular entrees have found their way to the dinner table, desert tray, and holiday gift baskets and yes the family bar. Drinks found to be family favorites and each having a special occasion and special person associated with the drink is described in the story and recipe sections."

Book Southern Italian Desserts

  • Author : Rosetta Costantino
  • Publisher : Ten Speed Press
  • Release : 2013-10-08
  • ISBN : 1607744023
  • Pages : 226 pages

Download or read book Southern Italian Desserts written by Rosetta Costantino and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authentic guide to the festive, mouthwatering sweets of Southern Italy, including regional specialties that are virtually unknown in the US, as well as variations on more popular desserts such as cannoli, biscotti, and gelato. As a follow-up to her acclaimed My Calabria, Rosetta Costantino collects 75 favorite desserts from her Southern Italian homeland, including the regions of Basilicata, Calabria, Campania, Puglia, and Sicily. These areas have a history of rich traditions and tasty, beautiful desserts, many of them tied to holidays and festivals. For example, in the Cosenza region of Calabria, Christmas means plates piled with grispelle (warm fritters drizzled with local honey) and pitta 'mpigliata (pastries filled with walnuts, raisins, and cinnamon). For the feast of Carnevale, Southern Italians celebrate with bugie ("liars"), sweet fried dough dusted in powdered sugar, meant to tattle on those who sneak off with them by leaving a wispy trail of sugar. With fail-proof recipes and information on the desserts' cultural origins and context, Costantino illuminates the previously unexplored confectionary traditions of this enchanting region.

Book Calabria  The Other Italy

    Book Details:
  • Author : Karen Haid
  • Publisher : Hillcrest Publishing Group
  • Release : 2015-01-07
  • ISBN : 1634132300
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Calabria The Other Italy written by Karen Haid and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2015-01-07 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the hub of the Mediterranean, Calabria now dangles, largely ignored, at the bottom of the Italian boot, struggling for survival, acceptance and a place in modern Italy and the world. Little-known even to Italians outside the nefarious activities of its 'Ndrangheta mafia organization, Calabria allures with its simplicity and rewards with an underlying complexity, as in savoring an artisanal cheese, appreciating an ancient Greek masterwork or interpreting a particularly expressive phrase in the local dialect. Calabria: The Other Italy paints a compelling picture of contemporary Calabria and Southern Italy, weaving observation, personal anecdote, salient historical information and social commentary into a nonfiction narrative that combines travelogue with an exploration of everyday life and culture. At times humorous, at others poignant, this engaging work portrays the joys and challenges of the "other Italy."

Over the years they've amassed a huge number of authentic recipes, plus a treasure trove of lesser-known regional recipes, from Venison with Cinnamon and Juniper from the Dolomites to Swordfish, Mint, Pine Nut, and Eggplant Penne from Sicily, and everything in between. Non-Italians rarely appreciate how richly diverse the country is.

With 12 chapters of masterclass techniques and over 425 recipes, this book includes it all.
