Book excerpt: This book is the first chapter to learn about some basic steps typical of food preparation in Italian cuisine. We will not talk about fine cuisine but we're going to talk about what, simply and daily, thousands of people in Italy prepare to eat. Italian cuisine provides a library full of recipes: many ingredients and millions of ways to put them together. This is a historical richness, mainly due to the customs and needs of the many populations lived on the Italian territory since the end of the Roman Empire. Are you sure to eat Italian when you are in an "Italian restaurant" in your neighborhood or city? Are you sure to eat real Parmesan cheese, or real extra virgin olive oil, or a real tomato sauce, or a good cooked pasta? Would you be able to go home and prepare a plate of pasta? ... for you, for your wife or husband, for your children? It is the same question I asked myself: despite the fact that I lived in Italy and grew up seeing my mother, my grandmother and my wife cooking ... would I be able to cook a plate of pasta for my children? Yes! Because it's simple .. and I want to share this experience with you!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of America's most beloved chefs and authors, a road trip into the heart of Italian American cooking today—from Chicago deep-dish pizza to the Bronx's eggplant parm—celebrating the communities that redefined what we know as Italian food. As she explores this utterly delectable and distinctive cuisine, Lidia shows us that every kitchen is different, every Italian community distinct, and little clues are buried in each dish: the Sicilian-style semolina bread and briny olives in New Orleans Muffuletta Sandwiches, the Neapolitan crust of New York pizza, and mushrooms (abundant in the United States, but scarce in Italy) stuffed with breadcrumbs, just as peppers or tomatoes are. Lidia shows us how this cuisine is an original American creation and gives recognition where it is long overdue to the many industrious Italians across the country who have honored the traditions of their homeland in a delicious new style. And of course, there are Lidia’s irresistible recipes, including · Baltimore Crab Cakes · Pittsburgh’s Primanti’s Sandwiches · Chicago Deep-Dish Pizza · Eggplant Parmigiana from the Bronx · Gloucester Baked Halibut · Chicken Trombino from Philadelphia · authentic Italian American Meatloaf, and Spaghetti and Meatballs · Prickly Pear Granita from California · and, of course, a handful of cheesecakes and cookies that you’d recognize in any classic Italian bakery This is a loving exploration of a fascinating cuisine—as only Lidia could give us.

Download or read book Pasta Recipes The art of the best Italian food with wonderful recipes written by and published by jideon francisco marques. This book was released on 2024-02-18 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pasta making is, at its most basic, an act of humility. It’s repetitive, precise manual labor—a simple gift to the gods of gluten offered up in flour-dusted basements and prep kitchens around the world. It is ceremonious only in its utter lack of ceremony. What has always appealed to me is how the frank marriage of two ingredients—whether flour and water or flour and eggs—splinters into hundreds of variations of stuffed, rolled, extruded, dried, stamped, and hand-cut shapes; how each has its own origin story, rhythmic set of motions, and tools; and how mastery can sometimes come down to an elusive sleight of hand: the flick of a wrist, the perfect twist of the index finger away from the thumb. Movements learned only through practice. In the two years between leaving A Voce in Manhattan and opening my first restaurant, Lilia, in Brooklyn, I spent most of my days at home learning, for the first time since I was a kid, what it meant to cook not for accolades or recognition but for comfort. There was no Michelin. No New York Times. No owners. No need to prove that a Jewish kid from Connecticut with no Italian heritage had any business cooking Italian food. No longer were my thoughts, Is this nice enough? or Is this cool enough? but rather, What kind of food do I want to eat? or What food do I want to cook? and most importantly, Why? I was cooking pasta that paid homage to Italy’s iconic regional dishes, sure, but the virtue of craveability was paramount. It’s why my food at Lilia and my second restaurant, Misi, is so rooted in home cooking, and it’s perhaps the only way to explain how a dish as simple as rigatoni with red sauce ended up on Lilia’s opening menu, and then once again at Misi. I wanted to serve the food that I like to eat—the food I’d always been cooking, just stripped down to the studs and rebuilt with a simple mantra in mind: quanto basta. In Italian cookbooks, quanto basta is typically represented as “q.b.” It translates to “as much as is necessary,” and it appears when an ingredient is listed without an exact quantity. It’s essentially the Italian version of “salt to taste,” but it has come to symbolize a shift in focus for me—one that places simplicity and comfort first and always makes me ask, Is this really necessary? It took me decades to get here. This book is meant as a ride-along, from red sauce to regional classics to the pastas I’ve made my own. At its core is a journey back to the home regions of some of my favorite pastas in an effort to understand them with new clarity—to gain a deeper knowledge of not only how they are faring in a country undergoing constant culinary evolution but also of their sense of place. Perhaps more than anything, though, this book is my love letter to pasta. What has made pasta the cornerstone of Italian culinary culture for centuries, an indelible part of so many Americans’ early food memories, and a food so eminently alluring that even the gluten averse cannot resist its siren song is that it asks, first and foremost, something elemental of us: that we enjoy it.
