Description: Building Your Great Collection; One Fine Book at a TimeLidia's Italian-American Kitchen: The Companion to her New 52-Part Public Television Series her most Instructive, Personal, and Inspiring CookbookBastianich, Lidia Matticchio New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2003 No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling; Still Gift Quality. Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. 9.5 inches tall; 432 pages with an index; Illustrations. Fine / Fine. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Bastianich (La Cucina di Lidia), owner of several restaurants, is simultaneously a beguiling storyteller and a no-nonsense guide. Alongside classics like Tri-Color Salad with Arugula and Radicchio and a more unusual Salad of Dandelion Greens with Almond Vinaigrette and Dried Ricotta, Bastianich provides sidebars on beans, capers and many other ingredients. She also waxes personal: a native of Istria, the region given to Yugoslavia after WWII, she emigrated in 1958 and opened her first restaurant in 1971 at age 24. The stars here, though, are the recipes. Pasta dishes such as Cavatelli with Bread Crumbs, Pancetta, and Cauliflower, and Orecchiette with Braised Artichokes, make fine use of fresh vegetables. Recipes are divided into antipasto, soups, pasta and risotto, pizza, entr‚es, side dishes and desserts. Desserts include a San Martino Pear and Chocolate Tart and a rich Chocolate Soup from Udine.
