About this product

Product Information

Perfectly pristine ingredients, combined sensibly and cooked properly, are the unmistakable hallmarks of the best Italian food. Chef Mario Batali, known to fans far and wide as "Molto Mario" from his appearances on television's Food Network and as chef of New York's much-loved P restaurant, has elevated these simple principles to fine art, creating innovative new fare that pays tribute to traditional Italian home cooking in a distinctly modern way. Now, for the first time, more than 200 of his irresistible recipes for fresh pastas, sprightly salads, grilled dishes, savory ragus, and many others are gathered in Simple Italian Food , a celebration of the flavors and spirit of Italy. Mario draws inspiration for his distinctive dishes from the two "villages" that have left their stamps on his cuisine: Borgo Capanne, the tiny hillside village in Northern Italy where he lived and cooked for several years, and New York's Greenwich Village, where he has ready access to bountiful produce and outstanding artisan-made products; his full-flavored, smartly presented fare combines the best of both worlds. Chapters covering antipasti, pasta and risotto, fish, meat and poultry, contorni (side dishes), and cheese and sweets offer classic dishes such as Baked Lasagne with Asparagus and Pesto and pork loin cooked in caramelized onions and milk alongside Batali's own enticing improvisations--Penne with Spicy Goat Cheese and Hazelnut Pesto or Tuna Carpaccio with Cucumbers, Sweet Potatoes, and Saffron Vinaigrette. And because his recipes succeed on the strength of their ingredients rather than on virtuoso techniques, home cooks can easily duplicate the clear, clean flavors and lively presentations that are Mario's signature. Thirty-two pages of color photographs showcase Chef Batali's colorful and approachable recipes. Traditionalists as well as those who thrill to the new will want to make dozens of these crowd-pleasing dishes a permanent part of their repertoire and embrace Mario Batali'sphilosophy of Simple Italian Food .

  • Simple if You can Find the Ingredients

    My husband loves the food Mario Batali cooks on the Iron Chef and I wanted to give him one of his cookbooks for Christmas. After looking at several of his books I chose this. These may be simple recipes if you live in Italy but unless you have an Italian grocer nearby you won't be able to find all the ingredients. Even though we have traveled to Italy several times these recipes were probably not what we would have wanted to order even there. We have probably been too Americanized of what we expect Italian food to consist of.

  • To much seafood for me

    So many of the recipes call for ingredients that if you don’t live in a city there hard to find out in small town America

  • Mario Batali's "Simple Italian Food"

    Simple, easy to understand, and commonly found ingredients. And the end product is uniquely Italian. Very well done recipes that offer exceptionally great flavor.

  • Mario Batali's Simple Italian Food by Mario Batali

    I love watching Mario cook. Now I'll have the chance to do some cooking of my own. The recipes are simple as the title states. You will not go wrong with this book. I'm an Italian- American and I'm quite fussy on what I consider to be authentic. These recipes are the real deal.
