The Rose Pistola Cookbook
by Reed Hearon
The North Beach area of San Francisco is the incubator of what has become known internationally as California Cuisine, a style that has changed the way America cooks. When immigrants from Sicily, Tuscany and Liguria first settled in San Francisco's North Beach, just a stone's throw from the wharf, they went to work doing what they had done for centuries in their homeland -- farming, fishing, and planting vineyards. When their old-world knowledge met Northern California's spectacularly abundant agriculture, fishing, and viniculture, a new cuisine was born -- one that is rooted in the seasonal, ingredient-driven cooking of Liguria and Sicily, using the extraordinary resources of the Bay Area. This North Beach cuisine captures the Italian heart of California cooking -- as an example, the Ligurian fish stew called ciuppin soon became San Francisco's famous cioppino. Now home cooks can recreate this remarkable cuisine with The Rose Pistola Cookbook. Recipes call for the freshest and most seasonal of ingredients: Roasted Beets with Ricotta Salata and Watercress. Cured Swordfish with Lemon and Parsley. Wood Oven Baked Farinata with Caramelized Onions, Sage, and Olives. Gnocchi with Calamari Bolognese. Cioppino with Dungeness Crab, Rockfish, Calamari and Mussels. Chicken Grilled Under a Brick. Gelato Sundaes. Rum Soaked Geneovese Butter Cake with Mascarpone Cream and Berries. This dazzling collection of recipes is accompanied by interviews with other "old stoves" (North Beach cooks of Italian descent), detailed information on ingredients, black and white archival photographs, and 16 pages of color food photography.
Classic Italian Jewish Cooking
by Edda Servi MacHlin
Classic Italian Jewish Cooking starts with the ancient Italian adage Vesti da turco e mangia da ebreo ("Dress like a Turk and eat like a Jew"). In this definitive volume of Italian Jewish recipes, Edda Servi Machlin , a native of Pitigliano, Italy, a Tuscan village that was once home to a vibrant Jewish community, reveals the secrets of this delicate and unique culinary tradition that has flourished for more than two thousand years. Originally introduced into the region by Jewish settlers from Judea, other Middle Eastern countries, and North Africa, Italian Jewish cuisine was always more than a mere adaptation of Italian dishes to the Jewish dietary laws; it was a brilliant marriage of ancient Jewish dishes and preparation methods to the local ingredients that relied on the imaginative use of fresh herbs, fruit, and vegetables. Fifteen hundred years later, with the influx of Iberian refugees, it was enriched by some Sephardic (from Spain and Portugal) dishes. Here you'll find recipes for the quintessential Italian Jewish dishes -- from Goose "Ham," Spicy Chicken Liver Toasts, and Jewish Caponata to Sabbath Saffron Rice, Purim Ravioli, and Tagliatelle Jewish Style (Noodle Kugel); from Creamed Baccalà, Red Snapper Jewish Style, and Artichokes Jewish Style to Creamed Fennel and Fried Squash Flowers; from Couscous Salad and Sourdough Challah Bread to Haman's Ears, Honey Cake, and Passover Almond Biscotti. Selected from Edda Servi Machlin's three widely admired books on Italian Jewish cuisine and filled with beautifully rendered memories from her birthplace, this rare collection of more than three hundred recipes is a powerful tribute to a rich cultural heritage and a rare gift to food lovers. With a special section on Jewish holiday menus, Classic Italian Jewish Cooking is a volume to treasure for generations.

Regional Foods of Northern Italy
by Marlena Di Blasi
This cookbook evokes the essence of Northern Italy's traditional foods in a beautifully wrought amalgam of recipe and narrative. It beckons you across the wet stone of Venice's Rialto bridge into a candlelit fifteenth-century cantina. It invites you down a forest road in Umbria, where grappa-fortified fishermen toss trout onto a wood fire and stage a sunset feast. It proffers nearly two hundred recipes from the heart and soul of Italy's North.
