If you like Pasta, you need this book. With 143 recipes guaranteed to make your mouth water, this book is a long-awaited treasure. If you love Pasta then this recipe book is a must have. You'll love this book, the recipes are easy, the ingredients are easy to get and they don't take long to make. There is an excellent recipe for Rolled Pasta with Radicchio, Pancetta, and Balsamic Vinegar and a wonderful Pasta With Spinach, Sausage And Roquefort Cream Sauce. My favorite Pastas are the slightly sweet ones like Poloni (Miniature Pasta Squares With Dairy Sauce). There is also a wonderful Pasta with (Turkey) Sausage and Pepper Meatballs. There is also a really nice Angel Hair Pasta with Fresh Tomato & Basil Sauce which is very easy to make yourself. This book will also give you enough inspiration to experiment with different ingredients since you'll find the extensive index to be extremely helpful. The recipes are superb. Wonderfully easy to put together and you don't have to make or purchase a ton of condiments before you have a chance to play with them. These Pastas really stand out in this great book: Asparagus & Artichoke Heart Pasta Chez Panisse, Chinese Pasta Salad with Creamy Ginger Dressing, Grilled Shrimp With Pasta and Fresh Tomatoes, Famous Meatballs for his Famous Pasta Sauce, Italian Brochettes with Angel Hair Pasta, Seafood Pasta Salad with Roasted Peppers, Curried Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta Salad, Pasta Salad with Chicken and Artichokes, Pasta with Fresh Tomato and Cream Sauce AND Pasta with Herbed Ricotta and Pine Nuts.
