Ok.this book is golden. The recipes are a collection of everything you would possibly associate Italian cuisine to, and some with a twist. Most cookbooks contain a certain percentage of intriguing recipes as well as ones that make you just want to turn the page. Not this book, every single recipe stands out and begs to be made. Yes, some of the recipes are in her previous books, but it is so convenient to have all mouth watering recipes in one compilation. Truly a gem of a book. You will love it.

One of my favorite chefs for Italian cuisine is Lidia Bastianich, who I followed for many years as I was interested to compare her recipes with my dad's recipes from his Italian parents, who resided in Italy. Fascinated by her many appearances on television and the fact that I loved cooking Italian food, I knew I'd learn a great deal. After residing in Long Island, New York, 45 years as Lidia and her daughter do and knowing she owned at least 4 Italian restaurants in New York City which was only 1 hour from where I lived, I became more fascinated and inspired by her famous reputation and awesome books. Some of her favorite recipes have also become mine, with absolutely no regrets. This amazing cookbook offers several easy-to-prepare and enjoyable sauces, main dinners, and unforgettable desserts. Her work is easy-to-read and concise with new information on nutrition, stunning illustrations, revised and updated recipes, and much more. Her classic sauces have an aroma that will make you hungry instantly, and her famous recipes will provide treasured family moments. My favorite is Eggplant Parmigiana, and chicken cacciatore. The Savory seafood stew aims to please, and the Cannoli Napoleon is my all time favorite. Her mouth-watering recipes will bring compliments at family gatherings, and the desserts are simply delicious. In comparison to my dad's Italian recipes, Lidia Bastianich is a Winner, because I found both to be delightful. Highly Recommended to all cooks interested in Italian food, and the perfect gift for family and friends who love Italian cooking on any special occasion!
