Immerse your family in the culinary culture of the beloved, boot-shaped nation. This colourfully illustrated bilingual cookbook collects over 30 of the most classic, traditional Italian dishes—from Spaghetti Carbonara to Tiramisu—and optimizes them for your whole family to cook and enjoy together, along with notes on Italian culture and menu suggestions. "A tavola non si invecchia." or "At the table with good friends and family you do not become old." With an emphasis on fresh ingredients and hands-on preparation, chef and director of the cooking school “La Scuola della Cucina Italiana” Anna Prandoni presents recipes for authentic Italian starters, first and second courses, vegetables, desserts, and snacks. Each left-hand page in English is mirrored in Italian on the right and food terms are called out bilingually throughout, creating the perfect format for language learning. “With the Kids” sidebars highlight cooking tasks that will delight the kids (and bring back your own childhood memories of helping out in the kitchen). These are accompanied by notes on Italian ingredients and culinary culture.
