 Like an armchair tour of Italy's best culinary offerings April 28, 2006
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
Since returning from a Tuscan holiday in summer of 2001, I could not get enough "authentic" Italian food to satisfy my now-wiser palate. Enter La Cucina Italiana (and its sister publication, Italian Cooking and Living) to assist me in recreating so many foods I experienced over there. I have never found an issue wanting in content and diversity, and of late the format has been much improved with rich photography and more adventurous dishes, and in a sturdier wrapper for keeping.
I did discover quickly that a clear acrylic cookbook stand is essential to keep my copies from getting sauced upon or otherwise soiled.
If you're planning to give this as a gift, make sure you order a subscription for yourself as well! But it makes a most welcome gift that lasts all year and then some :)
Best Authentic Italian Magazine in the US December 11, 2004

After returning from Italy, I found I had fallen in love with the country and its cuisine. I started subscribing to La Cucina Italiana to feed my habit. The magazine is full of wonderful recipes, lifestyle and travel tips that make you feel as though you are there--or wish you were. Each issue features appetizer, first, second and dessert course recipes, as well as a special "Rapido e Simplice" section--fast & easy recipes for casual or everyday meals.
While some of the recipes may call for ingredients not easy to find outside major metropolitan areas, the advertising offers many online and mail order resources. There is even a listing of Italian restaurants and grocers across the US! Printed on high-quality, glossy stock, each issue is coffee table worthy.
I only wish I lived in NYC so I could take advantage of the Institute's many course offerings and social events! If you love Italian cooking, and crave authenticity, subscribe to La Cucina--you will love it!
