About This Item
London: John Murray, 1989. Book. Good. Paperback. First Thus. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Informal history, musings, recipes and splendid artwork render this volume entertaining for armchair cooks as well as useful in the kitchen. Readers can browse leisurely through accounts of authentic mozzarella (made from water buffalo milk), fascist antipasta propaganda of the 1930s, memories of a donkey-driven grinding wheel that turned wheat into flour, reproductions of a hand-colored engraving of a saffron crocus, a simple pen-and-ink drawing of a soup tureen and Torriglia's 19th century painting of a monk eating noodles. Sauces include Bolognese tomato-and-meat sauce and an uncooked tomato sauce. Fresh pasta is featured in such dishes as taglierini with fish and lemon sauce and tomato tagliatelle with lobster saffron cream sauce, while separate recipes for dried pasta include spaghetti with raw tomatoes and avocado and pasta with pink vodka sauce..
