 Wonderful, Simple Italian October 29, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I checked this book out from the library and immediately feel in love with the recipes and stories. The recipes are simple and use ingredients that are available in most (if not all) grocery stores. I liked the book so much that I received one for my birthday. If you get a chance to watch her on your local PBS member station be sure to do so, she is very entertaining.
italian cooking at it's best October 10, 2007
I have several of Lidia's cookbooks and she just keeps getting better & better. If you love italian cooking or just love to cook, Lidia's cookbooks will be a great find for you. Her recipes are easy to follow, she has some great pictures in her books, and she has wonderful family stories as well as great history about Italy. I come from a large Lebanese family and my grandmothers best friend was Italian, and I never thought I would find recipes like hers, until I came across Lidia on the create channel...She is what great Italian cooking is all about

She is a great down to earth cook. These are ideas and things we can use in our kitchen at home.
If you love the TV series you need this book September 11, 2007
I enjoy watching Lydia Bastianich on TV, not only because of the food, but because it takes me back to my childhood with my Italian family. While I know a lot of the techniques and cultural values that Lydia espouses, I am not at all familiar with most of the recipes. It is great to be able to go right from an episode to trying it myself at home.

I have all of Lydia's cookbooks. Lydia's Italy is wonderful. The recipes are, as always, a way for me to go back in my memories to my childhood dinners at my Italian grandmothers. The travelogue is so interesting-and I realized that I must go back and visit the places that were mentioned that I had missed when I was in Italy. A must for next to the stove in your kitchen.
