Recipes and stories from a Sicilian grandmother's kitchen create a cookbook that shows anyone how to cook like a true Italian. "Home cooks looking for a great meal will not be let down by Henderson's book. It's a well-rounded collection of recipes that will make readers wish they had their own Italian family to cook with."--Library Journal Filled with 125 delicious recipes passed down through generations of Sicilian grandmothers, Heirloom Italian offers easy-to-make and substantial dishes with over 50 full-color photographs, including images of old family photos, notes, and letters. Chapters include breakfast, appetizers, soup, salad, pasta, sauces, mains, vegetables, and desserts, with a special chapter focused on holidays. From the introduction: Cookbooks are a piece of history and memories. How many times do you say or others remark, "This reminds me of . . . my mother, my grandmother, and so on"? The aroma of a stuffed turkey slow roasting in the oven on Thanksgiving Day, a simmering pot of Bolognese sauce on Sundays getting ready for the big dinner, the sweet fragrance of cinnamon cookies being baked in the oven at Christmas. Memories.
