Rating:  Summary: Great, Simple Italian Cooking Review: This book is the best Italian cookbook I have found since it includes so many vegetarian recipes, which is rare in an Italian cookbook, AND recipes do not begin with 2 cups of olive oil and 20 cloves of garlic as other Italian cookbooks do. I love it also for its fun reading and different cookbook style. This one is a winner for lazy cooks like me.
Rating:  Summary: Our favorite cook book Review: We have used the book so many times that this is the third time that we have had to buy it.Greate Italian cooking.
Rating:  Summary: My favorite cookbook, by far.. Review: You know how you sometimes buy a cookbook, and it sits on your shelf for months without you trying a recipe, even though you love to cook? With this cookbook, you will be trying Dom's eggplant rolls the minute the book reaches your kitchen. I purchased this book several months ago, and have tried many of the recipes--all of them received rave reviews from my family! (and I'm a teenager, too, which means I've only been preparing meals all by myself, as opposed to just helping, for a few years now). Tonight, for example, I made Dom's mussels with the Risotto Primavera on the side. I made on substition though--instead of carrots and celery, I used Mushrooms (I'm a mushroom addict). We couldn't get enough of it! Absolustely delicious. Being Italian and living in New York, I grew up with many of the dishes. Obviously, I highly reccomend this book. 2 tomato sauce covered thumbs up!
