Thank you for visiting my blog! I have a lifelong love of cooking and cookbooks which I wanted to share with others. My favorite cuisine would have to be Italian with an emphasis on Sicilian influenced by my visits there, but I enjoy food from all over. I am not a chef, I am just a stay-at-home mom with a love for food and cooking. I'm sharing that love with my daughters as I train them in the kitchen, and wanted to share it with you as well. Let's get cooking!!

Let's Cook Italian by Anna Prandoni
My rating: 4 of 5 spoons
gggg
We love Italian food around our house, and my kids are learning Italian, so what could be better than a cookbook in both English AND Italian?! Each recipe is on two facing pages--the left side is in English, and the right side is Italian. This is great for supplementing their Italian learning, and is just downright fun!
I love that there is a variety of recipes that range from very easy and simple to more complex and challenging. This allows your children to grow in the kitchen without overwhelming them at the start. They can start with an easy Vermicelli in Tomato Sauce or Peas with Italian Ham and as they learn and get better in the kitchen can graduate to more difficult dishes such as Beef Rolls (Involtini di Manzo) or Piedmontese Chocolate Pudding (which is more difficult to make than it sounds with multiple steps).
Kids today are losing that valuable art of cookery what with all the convenience foods and restaurants everywhere. Bring the family together, teach your kids some valuable skills and try something Italian for dinner tonight!
I received a copy of this book from Quarry Books for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
