Giada's Family Dinners
Zosia from Toronto, ON
The focus of this book is less on Italian cuisine and more on entertaining with recipes that are not necessarily traditionally Italian, but include an Italian influence, whether it’s ingredients or cooking method.
As with Everyday Italian, the photography is beautiful, the ingredients readily available and most of the recipes work. I found the organization a little difficult to follow and had to rely on the back index to find recipes I wanted to make. Some of the resulting dishes were hugely successful, others less so.
I prefer the book Everyday Italian but believe that this one deserves a better rating than just “good” so this gets a 4-star rating as well.
