Summary: A book that is as readable as it is usable
Comment: This engagingly written book captures the vibrant spirit and traditions of the Italian countryside in an enticing blend of evocative text and authentic family recipes. The hearty, down-to-earth dishes described by Lynne Rossetto Kasper range from appetizers to desserts, and nearly all of the ingredients called for in the recipes are not difficult to find. A helpful discussion of ingredients, a list of shopping sources, and appealing menus add to the book's usefulness.

Another book I recommend wholeheartedly is "Recipes and Remembrances from an Eastern Mediterranean Kitchen," by Sonia Uvezian. This culinary gem belongs in every cookbook collector's library.

Summary: A Wonderful New Book from the Author of "The Splendid Table"
Comment: I've been a great fan of Lynne Rossetto Kaspar's "The Splendid Table" for several years now, having prepared and enjoyed many great meals from that award winning book. Although "The Italian Country Table" is less comprehensive and detailed than "The Splendid Table," it offers an irresistable selection of recipes from the Italian countryside. The fabulous food of Apulia is one of Italy's greatest culinary secrets, and Kasper gives us a delicious sampling of wonderful Apulian dishes like Pizza Rustica, Fava Beans, and Pasta Puttenesca. My copy is already stained and soiled, the sign of a cookbook that gets a lot of use. These are recipes you'll make again and again. And Kasper is a wonderful writer as well. The book is filled with lore and stories from Italian families throughout the countryside.

Summary: not as good as it seems
Comment: I bought this title after looking and looking at many reviews for Italian cookbooks. I have made 5-6 recipes and cannot rave about even one.
