Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking by Marcella Hazan

Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking by Marcella Hazan

A timeless Mother's Day gift: The most important, consulted, and enjoyed Italian cookbook of all time, from the woman who introduced Americans to a whole new world of Italian food.

Essentials of Italian Cooking is a culinary bible for anyone looking to master the art of Italian cooking, bringing together Marcella Hazan's most beloved books, The Classic Italian Cook Book and More Classic Italian Cooking, in a single volume, updated and expanded with new entries and 50 new recipes. Designed as a basic manual for cooks of all levels of expertise--from beginners to accomplished professionals--it offers both an accessible and comprehensive guide to techniques and ingredients and a collection of the most delicious recipes from the Italian repertoire. As home cooks who have used Marcella's classic books for years (and whose copies are now splattered and worn) know, there is no one more gifted at teaching us just what we need to know about the taste and texture of a dish and how to achieve it, and there is no one more passionate and inspiring about authentic Italian food.

Marcella Hazan is the author of six classic cookbooks released over the past 35 years and has received two Lifetime Achievement Awards (from the James Beard Foundation in 2000 and the IACP in 2004) as well as a knighthood from her own nation. She and her husband, Victor, a lifelong collaborator and writing partner who is an expert on Italian food and wine, live in Longboat Key, Florida.
