Summary:

If ever a cookbook embodied the essence of a time and a place, Nick Stellino's Glorious Italian Cooking is that book. On every page and with every recipe, this book is a celebration of food and its preparation. It also recounts the tales of a family and describes the safe haven that they found around the dinner table, where they took refuge from life's hectic pace, joined together to share the outstanding moments of their daily lives. For Nick Stellino, the fondest recollections of his childhood and his most heartfelt dreams have come together in the creation of his phenomenally popular television series, Cucina Amore, and in his cookbooks. And Nick Stellino's Glorious Italian Cooking brings together the spirit of these memories and his love of cooking with more than 150 recipes - authentic Italian cuisine prepared with unsurpassed quality and simplicity. From tangy dips and sauces, and hearty soups and stews, to pastas, main dishes, and desserts, this collection features food that is robust, delicious, easy to prepare, and a pleasure to serve every day or on special occasions. With menu ideas, wine suggestions, valuable cooking and serving tips, plus the author's stories and reminiscences, Nick Stellino's Glorious Italian Cooking is imbued with the same vitality, charm, and passion that have made his television show so well loved.
