“What do you want to eat?”

Picking out a favorite Italian cookbook out of a bunch of them is much harder than it seems. There are a lot of great cookbooks out there, and choosing one of them is like choosing a favorite pet.

So, is this the only Italian book you need?

No. Of course not.

We don't think such a book exists.

But the mission of Mama Christina’s Classic Italian Cookbook was to always supply a good answer to this question, “What do you want to eat?”

The results were a delightful surprise: When planning a meal, just look through the pages and get an answer to the question if you feel like eating “Italian.”

In presenting these classic Italian recipes—recipes of universal appeal— the greatest care had been taken to select only those that were popular in most every home—easily prepared by the beginner but so excellent that they would add new laurels even to the reputation of the expert.

Mama Christina’s Classic Italian Cookbook is a culinary delight for anyone looking to master the art of Italian cooking, featuring user-friendly recipes for both the beginning and experienced cook.
