Summary: Can't be better than this
Review: A perfect Italian cook book, both in its contents and the way they are presented - vivid pictures, thoughtful cooking instructions, and even the neatly designed book itself in paperback...Strongly recommend to anyone who is looking for a pasta cookbook.

Summary: Very well done and complete Pasta Cookbook
Review: A very helpful book, well organized, and full of recipes from the easy to the more complicated. Everything can be done in a reasonable amount of time if you adhere to the star method to choose your level of complication (one star: easy; 2 stars, a little harder...). This is a favorite of those who've tried the dishes, though a little more careful editing would have been welcome (for example, in the recipe for Ziti with Vegetables and Italian Sausage, why is there no sausage in the recipe? For the times you must create a béchamel, why not mention that you return the sauce to a medium-high heat and not the low heat you were just using?). I won't be picky: this is a great pasta book. One caveat: if weight watching is an issue for dishes you prepare, keep looking - these recipes are mostly quite high in the calorie department. However, if you're looking for a good general pasta book, try this one first and wait before buying others; this one supplanted most of my other pasta cookbooks, and it may for you, too.

Summary: Great recipes
Review: I randomly picked a pasta salad recipe out of the book for an upcoming barbecue with friends. The dish was excellent, I got rave reviews from my guests. I can't wait to try another recipe.

Summary: WOW, the best cookbook of any type around!
Review: I recently bought a handcrank pasta machine and was on the lookout for a pasta cookbook that had recipes using fresh pasta. My mom surprised me with this book and I absolutely love it! I love cookbooks with lots of pictures so I can see what the recipes look like. This book has a picture of every recipe so I am in cookbook heaven! Lots of great recipes too! Buy it for yourself or give it as a gift. Two thumbs up!

Summary: Pasta - Begginer to Gourmet
Review: This book starts at the basics. Fundamental descriptions of all pasta available, how to name them and how to make them from scratch.The first chapter starts with all the most common basic sauces (salsa) known all over the world. Bolognesa, alfreddo, pesto, etc... The following chapters describe the best of pasta cooking including everything from lassagna and fettuccini to gnocci and ravioli. Most recipies are easy to overcome and they do taste wonderful. Book photography is outstanding, you can almost smell the dishes. This book is a must if you love itallian food.

Summary: Mama mia! You won't go wrong with this cookbook!
Review: This is a fantastic cook book!!! I love cookbooks with pictures and this one if filled with them. I got this cookbook after I bought a pasta machine so I could find some sauces to serve with my homemade pasta and I certainly wasn't disappointed. I have tried several recipes already and found them easy to prepare and they turned out great. I highly recommend this book. You won't be disappointed!

Summary: Great book for a picky gourmet
Review: Wow, I thought I had pretty much seen all the great cookbooks out in the market. Boy I am so pleased by this book. It is very well organized, with catagories, such as pasta with meat, chicken, vegetable, etc. I was pleasantly surprised with the gnocchi section, as it is hard to find great recipes with pictures for this topic. If you are searching for a great book that will satisfy both your palate and mind, this is the book to have. BTW, the paperback version comes with a plastic cover. So no worry about ruining the cover during cooking. A++++ !!!
