Whether he shares an anecdote ('My sisters would patiently make each meatball'), celebrates Italy's regional cooking ('Sicilian cooking is all about simple cuicina povera?'), or offers ingredient substitutions ('If you can't get this shape, then use conchiglie or penne'), the introductions written for each recipe are equally fun to read. In conjunction with these recipes are plenty of pasta fundamentals, such as basic sauces, matching shapes to sauces (rigatoni can be used in baked dishes and ragùs, while farfalle is best with pesto), and info on the equipment needed for it all. <b>This delightful cookbook will educate and inspire</b>.<br><br>"The man cooks like an angel and no ordinary angel."<br><br>"What a fantastic book--why is he cooking so good?"<b><br></b><br><br>"With each recipe, Contaldo brings joy and dazzlement."<br><br>Many-time author Contaldo selects his 100-plus pasta favorites from among Italy's regions of Liguria and Lombardy, Sardinia and Sicily, among others.

Whether describing pasta that is dried or fresh, baked or filled, pasta directions are easy to follow.<br><br>There's nothing Gennaro doesn't know about pasta. He's an absolute legend!<br>
