    A very trustworthy and communicative seller! The price of the books he sold me was so incredible, that I couldn't believe it until I received them. Books arrived in amazing condition (better than the photos conveyed) and the price and speed of shipping was the best I think I've had on eBay -- books arrived over 20 days before they were supposed to! Will buy from this seller again if I see an item I would like.

    Easy to read, great recipes, and the author has a way with words.

    This book is an instruction manual akin to Julia's Mastering the Art of French Cooking. It teaches one technique, history, and has fabulous recipes. Making my first pizza tomorrow!

  • Wonderful simple recipe cookbook

    I purchased this cookbook on a recommendation from my brother who has served some of the best handmade pasta dishes I have ever eaten. I love that the author educates and writes recipes simply and concisely. This cookbook goes into the different types of cooking in the different regions of Italy and explains that ‘Italian’ cooking is done in the home, because there is not a blanket description for the way Italian’s cook since regional styles are so different in even a short geographical distance. I personally can appreciate that since I am from southwest Louisiana and understand that due to the different cooking foundations and styles in Louisiana I.e Cajun vs Creole cooking and everything in between. The first recipe I chose I had everything on hand for already and although I did not ...

  • GREAT Update/Combo of Two Treasured Classics, With the Tatters to Prove It

    My two 70's vintage Hazan paperbacks Classic & More Classic are food-spattered & held together with tape from MUCH use over the decades. Having just found out they'd been combined (in the 90's, argh!) into this updated version along with some additional recipes, I couldn't resist. I salute the updatings...the classic ragu has gone from dabs of veggies, milk & wine to gobs, which, although it extends the time it takes to cook down, WAY improves the outcome. A very worthy addition to the other Hazan books in my cookbook library (the bookcase in my kitchen for most-frequently-used books, not the other three bookcases of cookbooks in my office down the hall!). Arrived timely and in perfect condition. P.S. The Tuna Spread on page 38 of her Marcella's Italian Kitchen is a MIRACLE, if you ...

  • Best all-around book on Italian cooking

    I gave my copy to my daughter, so I got this as a replacement. Best overall book on Italian cooking in the estimation of a lot of people. You really need to try the pesto recipe
