Product Description:
"A culinary gem for everyone who wants to bring the true flavor of Italy into their home."-Paula Wolfert, author of Mediterranean Cooking
Anna Teresa Callen grew up in Abruzzo, one of Italy's most striking regions. In this wonderful, evocative book, she unveils the secrets of Abruzzo's robust culinary traditions. Here is simple cooking at its best, with flavors kept fresh and clean. The 350 recipes range from elaborate festival dishes-including the region's signature dish, Maccheroni alla Chitarra-to uncomplicated rustic fare.
Anna Teresa Callen (New York, NY) is an accomplished food writer, teacher, food consultant, and television personality. Two of her shows, Let Them Eat Pasta! and Nature's Masterpiece, The Egg, have aired nationwide on CBS and PBS, and her articles have appeared in Bon Appétit, Gourmet, the New York Times, and other publications.

This book is well written and deserves high praises for its aunthenticity. The recipes are very much the same as I remember them from my Mother's and Grandmother's cooking. Many of the recipes are almost exact duplicates. I come from a family that emigrated from Abruzzo. We were all born there and practiced many of the same recipes. One must keep in mind when reading the recipes that each small town in the region had its own cuisine and food traditions. The auther has done a fine job depicting ... Read More

Quite simply one of the best researched, best written, authentic cookbooks we own (and we're in the category of those who collect cookbooks until our shelves are groaning from the weight). How good is this book? My father, who's mother was born in Abbruzzo, lit up when I showed it to him. He immediately began looking up -- and finding -- recipes his mother had made in the early 1900s before she came to America. I promptly began photocopying them for him so he could try them at home, and he's been immensely ... Read More

This is not a compilation of authentic native recipes. In fact, it is more a mini-memoir of the author's childhood. For authenticity, see Italian Regional Cooking by Ada Boni.

My family is from the Abruzzo region and I just recently visited. I love that each recipe has a story related to it. Many recipes are similar to what my grandma had made. I first bought one for a gift, and read it before I gave it to my mom. So I had to buy one for myself.

I bought this book for my husband, who is the son of an Abruzzi native. He loves the book (and to cook), but I've found it absolutely captivating and can't put it down! I've made several of the recipes in it, that are very simple and fairly easy to prepare, and loved all of them. Though even throughout the region, each individual village may have their own spin or variation of these recipes, they are turning out to be quite authentic. I have several friends from the south-western region of Abruzzo. I have made ... Read More
