The Delia Collection:
Italian |
||||||||||
|
Italian cooking has become an essential part of the British scene: cooks here are now as familiar with lasagne, Bolognese sauce and antipasti as with roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. In "The Delia Collection: Italian", the fifth book in the series recently released with "The Delia Collection: Pork" and the interactive DVD cookery book "Ultimate Delia", Delia Smith offers her individual and very tempting selection of Italian recipes for every occasion, which will suit both confident and less experienced cooks. Readers are taken through antipasti, such as the classic Tomato Mozzarella and Avocado Salad with Herb Vinaigrette, and Minestrone Soup, to Pasta, Risotto and Gnocchi, Fish and Meat and Puddings. There is room here for contrast, from the simple Pasta Puttanesca (known chez Delia as "tart's spaghetti"), to the exotic Tiger Prawn Risotto with Lobster Sauce. And the puddings are irresistible. Who could say no to Peaches Baked with Amaretti or the famous Italian apple dessert, Torta di Mele? And true to the Delia tradition of never assuming that people are familiar with even the most simple cooking techniques, she of course includes fail-safe advice on how to cook perfect pasta. |
