Pasta Cookbooks and Recipes
Pasta is a type of food made from flour mixed with water a
(and often eggs) which is then kneaded, formed into shapes
and boiled. The best-known form of pasta is probably spaghetti
which is a long-thin form of pasta whose name derives from
the Italian spaghetto, the diminutive of spago
which means "thin string".
Other than spaghetti, other common forms of pasta include
vermicelli (also string like),
farfalle and rotelle (complicated decorative shapes),
fettuccine and linguine (both ribbon-shipped),
lasagna (large sheets),
penne (short tubes),
as well as various forms of hollow shapes
that are stuffed with fillings (manicotti, ravioli and tortellini).
Although all the types of pasta are made from more or less the same ingredients,
the shapes do in fact serve an important role - different shapes make different
types of pasta more suitable for different types of sauce
(Alfredo sauce,
Tomato sauce, etc.).
When pasta is cooked, it can be served with a variety of different
sauces. For example, in
Italian cuisine,
each region of
Italy
has their own preferred ways of serving the dish. For example,
bolognese and pesto are favored in the North, whereas carbonara
or tomato sauces tend to be favored in the South.
Pasta is also a popular dish outside of Italy,
and other countries such as the
United States,
have developed their own distinct accompaniments, albeit often inspired by
Italian cuisine.
The origins of pasta have been lost in the mists of time. It is known that noodles
have been eaten in China
for at least 4,000 years, and one legend says that
Marco Polo brought this dish to
Italy - however romantic
as this story is, it doesn't appear to be true - there are records of pasta dishes in
the Mediterranean area dating back from before the time of Christ.

The pasta recipes found in this cookbook are a compilation of some of my favorite dishes to serve at small family dinners, large get-togethers at my home and all of the social gatherings in between. The sauces range from buttery white sauces made with heavy cream and cheese to savory tomato-based sauces that will make you smack your lips in pleasure. These recipes are simple to make and take less than a half hour of preparation, so you don’t need to spend a lot of time cooking when you get home after a long day. I hope these recipes provide you with a variety of choices you enjoy cooking and serving. Bon Appetit!

From one of the most beloved chefs and authors in America, a beautifully illustrated collection of 150 simple, seasonal Italian recipes told with commonsense cooking wisdom—from the cutting board to the kitchen table.Â
As storyteller and chef, Lidia Bastianich draws on anecdotes to educate and illustrate. Recalling lessons learned from her mother, Erminia, and her grandmother Nonna Rosa, Lidia pays homage to the kitchen sages who inspired her. Whether it's Citrus Roasted Veal or Rustic Ricotta Tart, each recipe is a tangible feast. We learn to look at ingredients as both geographic and cultural indicators. In Campania, the region where mozzarella is king, we discover it best eaten three hours after preparation. In Genova we are taught that while focaccia had its basil origins in the Ligurain culinary tradition, the herbs and flavorings will change from region to region; as home chefs, we can experiment with rosemary or oregano or olives or onions! When it's time for dessert, Lidia draws on the scared customs of nuns in Italian monasteries and convents and reveals the secret to rice pudding with a blessing.
Lidia's Commonsense Guide to Italian Cooking is a masterclass in creating delectable Italian dishes with grace, confidence and love. |

Award-winning chef Marc Vetri wanted to write his first book about pasta. Instead, he wrote two other acclaimed cookbooks and continued researching pasta for ten more years. Now, the respected master of Italian cuisine finally shares his vast knowledge of pasta, gnocchi, and risotto in this inspiring, informative primer featuring expert tips and techniques, and more than 100 recipes.
Vetri’s personal stories of travel and culinary discovery in Italy appear alongside his easy-to-follow, detailed explanations of how to make and enjoy fresh handmade pasta. Whether you’re a home cook or a professional, you’ll learn how to make more than thirty different types of pasta dough, from versatile egg yolk dough, to extruded semolina dough, to a variety of flavored pastas—and form them into shapes both familiar and unique. In dishes ranging from classic to innovative, Vetri shares his coveted recipes for stuffed pastas, baked pastas, and pasta sauces. He also shows you how to make light-as-air gnocchi and the perfect dish of risotto.Â
Loaded with useful information, including the best way to cook and sauce pasta, suggestions for substituting pasta shapes, and advance preparation and storage notes, Mastering Pasta offers you all of the wisdom of a pro. For cooks who want to take their knowledge to the next level, Vetri delves deep into the science of various types of flour to explain pasta’s uniquely satisfying texture and how to craft the very best pasta by hand or with a machine. Mastering Pasta is the definitive work on the subject and the only book you will ever need to serve outstanding pasta dishes in your own kitchen. |
