Lidia’s Italy in America 

Lidia Bastianich 

On offer is a previously owned, autographed, first edition hardback in dust jacket, both in like new condition. Sources say, “As she explores this utterly delectable and distinctive cuisine, Lidia shows us that every kitchen is different, every Italian community distinct, and little clues are buried in each dish: the Sicilian-style semolina bread and briny olives in New Orleans Muffuletta Sandwiches, the Neapolitan crust of New York pizza, and mushrooms (abundant in the United States, but scarce in Italy) stuffed with breadcrumbs, just as peppers or tomatoes are. Lidia shows us how this cuisine is an original American creation and gives recognition where it is long overdue to the many industrious Italians across the country who have honored the traditions of their homeland in a delicious new style.”  Whether this is your fist cookbook by Lidia or one of many, it is a fine addition to a collection of Italian or Mediterranean or other cookbooks.
