I found a new favorite!
I"m so glad I ordered this cookbook. The recipes are easy and the ingredients (except for a couple of things) are available in the local supermarket.

Italian Made Simple: Revised and Updated (Made Simple)

Cristina Mazzoni

Made Simple, 2003

Excellent
This book is a great way to learn Italian in one's own spare time. Before moving to Italy for four months, I took a beginner's course which used a different book. This book focused on conversational skills and was completely dependent on audio recordings. It never taught the basic grammar and the syntax of Italian. Ms. Mazzoni's book presents everything in English and Italian, explaining in ...

All you need is this book and a lace curtain in the window
I have been cooking with 'Bistro', Patricia Wells' book of simple French recipes, for several decades now. I have recently been converted to her 'Paris Cookbook'. So what stopped me from buying her book of Italian trattoria cooking? Two words: Marcella Hazan. I am addicted to Hazan's 'Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking'. It's clear. It produces restaurant-quality meals that take only ...

Delicious Panini and Tramezzini
I just returned from Roma. One of the things we ate the most for lunch was Tramezzini, due to the heavy availability of them everywhere. They almost always offer to grill it for you. We also noticed that nearly every one we saw had sliced boiled eggs on it. I had one that was a simple chicken salad with green olives, sliced hard boiled eggs, slice of cheese, and rocket (arugula). The sandwich was ...

Very good recipes!
I bought this book quite a while ago. It was my first cookbook and I thought Italian food would be the way to start. So far, every single recipe I have made from this book (about a dozen or so) have been absolutely, mind-blowingly, delicious! God, try the Mascarpone pear dessert, it's heaven! Or the pesto and arctichocke bruschetta. My family moans whenever they eat these two!

Summer Spaghetti: Fresh tomatoes and basil, marinated at room temperature with garlic and olive oil, tossed with mozzarella and hot pasta. "Beach Pasta": Small pasta shells, tuna, tomatoes, olives, and anchovies. Both have become staples for me, and every ...
