The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Italian – Recipes from the New and Old World Simplified for the American Kitchen (Jeff Smith)

Product Info

This is part of the Frugal Gourmet TV series shown on National Public Television. The cover notes tell us that “Jeff Smith fell in love with Italy as a college student.” Further, “this is the first time he has devoted a single volume to a country where food has been a sustaining passion and is taken as seriously as religion, art, and politics.” This volume is a 1993 first edition hardback with dust jacket in near original condition. It contains 350+ recipes covering every course from antipasti to dessert. It also includes – albeit a little dated – a glossary of cooking terms, a section on Italian wines, and essays on ingredients that are essential for Italian cooking. Mangia! Previously Owned
