FAMILY RECIPES FROM MY CUCINA TO YOURS: A COOKBOOK
LAURA VIT
Bring the joy of Italian cooking to your kitchen with 100 classic and incredibly delicious Italian family favorites, from the star of Laura in the Kitchen.
When Laura Vitale moved to the United States from her native Italy as a teenager, she was homesicknot just for her family, but for her beloved nonnas cooking. The slow-cooked Sunday sauces loaded with pork ribs and tender braised beef (and plenty of red wine), the quick pan-fried breaded chicken cutlets destined to be Parmesand, the frittata de maccheroni that shed tuck in a knapsack for beachside picnics . . . and so began a quest to re-create Nonnas delicious legacy in Lauras New Jersey kitchen.
Ever since, Laura has spent countless hours on the phone with Nonna to learn her secrets for the crispiest fried Cacio e Pepe Aranini, Zia Mimmas Focaccia Barese (mashed potatoes are the key to its fluffy texture), decadent four-cheese baked ziti, a Sunday supper go-to of Roasted Chicken and Potatoes with Herby Lemon Salsa, and a semolina cake to end all yellow cakes, topped with heaps of limoncello-soaked strawberries. Decades of Sunday suppers, holiday meals, and get-it-done-fast weeknight dinners have perfected the flavors and techniques that represent the essence of Lauras Italy.
