Description

Some of the world's best-loved dishes are Italian in origin or developed by expat Italian communities around the world. Who doesn't love topping pizza with an array of fresh ingredients, or sitting to a meal of rich and flavourful lasagne? Who could resist a filling bowl of hot minestrone soup, a creamy risotto, or the fresh taste and visual appeal of insalata tricolore? This attractive new cookbook contains every well-known Italian recipe, from soups to pasta dishes, and main courses to decadent desserts. There are recipes for making pasta and pizza dough, slow-cooked sauces for everyday eating, fish and shellfish platters, and meat and poultry dishes incorporating heart-healthy legumes.
