Book of Pasta Grannies Cookbook

"In kitchens all across Italy, grandmothers or nonne are cooking up traditional fresh pasta dishes for their families, just as their mothers and grandmothers have done before them for generations. For a nonna, love is putting food on the table, and pasta is the perfect vehicle to make precious ingredients go further. From the cheese-and-butter-drenched gnocchi of the mountainous north to the homegrown tomato-based sauces served with knobbly and twisted pasta of the sun-soaked south, every nonna has her own special recipe. Pasta Grannies brings together the huge diversity of these time-perfected dishes and also celebrates the expertise, life and stories of the amazing women behind them."
