Carluccio - Passion for Pasta
Over
100 irresistible recipes from the master of Italian food
Unleash
your desire for Italian food with Antonio Carluccio, as he celebrates
all-things pasta with the release of Passion for Pasta.
A staple
food for all occasions, pasta's huge array of shapes, textures and
flavours makes it the perfect basis for all kinds of meals, from
stylish dinner parties to easy suppers at home. In this revised
edition, Antonio Carluccio shares with you his Passion for Pasta,
providing inventive and exciting recipes for soups, main courses,
salads and even desserts to promote this key ingredient of traditional
Italian cookery to the rank of haute cuisine.
The
100 delicious dishes include Egg in Raviolo with White Truffles,
Orecchiette with Lamb Ragout, Pappardelle with Quail Sauce and the
unusual and decadent Chocolate Pasta Sauce. There are easy-to-follow
instructions for homemade pasta and fresh sauces that can be served
up by a novice kitchen cook and the experienced chef alike.
Forget
the blasphemy of bottled sauces, ready-made pasta dishes and pre-packed
Parmesan cheese. Instead, seek inspiration from the palette of mouth-watering
Italian ingredients - Parma ham, mozzarella, radicchio, artichoke
hearts, wild mushrooms and truffles - combined with originality
and genius in Antonio Carluccio's pasta masterpieces.
Passion
for Pasta is the ultimate guide to Carluccio's 50-year love affair
with the most Italian of foods, making it a must-have for any kitchen.
