Reviews / Votes
'a seriously comprehensive guide that shows that Italian food is about for more than just pasta and pizza. ... One for serious Italophiles.'Gordon Ramsey, The Times 'A joy to cook from. ... may well prove to be the only Italian cookery you'll ever need.'
Henrietta Green, Daily Mail 'I predict this is going to become the new bible on Italian food.'
The Bookseller 'Big and bountiful, it's a welcoming jumble of recipes...and by the looks of it, it may give cookbooks by American celebrity chefs a run for their money'
The New York Times Magazine 'The most exhaustive Italian cookbook in recent memory, this volume offers something for every cook, regardless of their skill level, and deserves to be a fixture in American kitchens.'
Publishers Weekly 'It's not so much one more Italian cookbook as the one-volume encyclopedia of Italian home cookery. Lavish illustrations, a helpful glossary of cooking terms and a translation geared to the intelligent layout make The Silver Spoon both pleasant browsing and an accessible manual in the kitchen.'
The Wall Street Journal
