Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking

By Marcella Hazan
Knopf - 1992

June 23rd, 2011

After cooking out of this book for a while, I have come to believe that it is the only Italian cookbook I really need. The pasta sauces in particular are all excellent and not difficult to execute. The vegetable sides and salad recipes are also classic and scrumptious. I use this book both for everyday cooking and special meals, and it hasn't let me down yet.
