Every Night Italian: 120 Simple, Delicious Recipes You Can Make in 45 Minutes or Less by Giuliano Hazan (Jan 12 2000)

A master teacher in his own right, Giuliano Hazan learned the art of Italian cooking from the authority on Italian cooking-his mother, Marcella Hazan. When his first bestseller The Classic Pasta Cookbook appeared, Newsday exclaimed: "What a good cook he is, and what a clear and useful book he has made. He learned his mother's lessons well." In Every Night Italian, he writes for a new generation, addressing the concerns most often expressed by students in his cooking classes: how to make good, authentic Italian meals, with ingredients from the supermarket, when there's not much time to spend in the kitchen. With a pantry of basic Italian ingredients and detailed line drawings of the essential techniques for cutting a pepper, trimming an artichoke, sharpening a knife, and more, Giuliano Hazan teaches home cooks to prepare real Italian food like never before: quickly and easily. The 120 recipes in this book-from appetizers to desserts-each take less than forty-five minutes to prepare.
