"Nigellissima," like the Italian cooking from which it takes its
inspiration, is a celebration of food that is fresh, delicious, and
unpretentious. Here Nigella Lawson serves up 120 straightforward
and mouthwatering recipes that are quick and easy yet elevate
weeknight meals into no-fuss feasts.
"It was when I was sixteen or seventeen that I decided to be
Italian. Not that it was a conscious decision . . . No: I simply
felt drawn to Italy," writes Nigella.And so it was that before she
was a Food Network star and bestselling cookbook author, Nigella
found her way to Florence, where she learned to cook like an
Italian. Indeed, Italian cooking is trademark Nigella: light on
touch but robust with flavor.
With beautiful color photographs to inspire, "Nigellissima" has all
the hallmarks of traditional Italian fare in its faithfulness to
the freshest ingredients and simplest methods. From pasta and meat
to fish, vegetables, and, of course, "dolci," this cook's tour has
something for every mood, season, and occasion: Curly-Edged Pasta
with Lamb Ragu is the perfect salve for a winter's night, while
tangy and light Spaghettini with Lemon and Garlic Breadcrumbs takes
just minutes to prepare. Meatzza, the favorite at Nigella's table,
is a meatball mixture pressed into a pan and finished with
traditional Margherita ingredients--or whatever you may have on
hand. And the versatile Baby Eggplant with Oregano and Red Onion
works beautifully as a starter or side "or" as dinner sprinkled
with ricotta salata or crumbled feta. Here, too, are Green Beans
with Pistachio Pesto, Roast Butternut with Sage and Pine Nuts, and
fluffy Mascarpone Mash, Nigella's twist on mashed potatoes. Never
an afterthought, Nigella's low-maintenance "sweet things" include
Instant Chocolate-Orange Mousse; light, doughnut-like Sambuca
Kisses; and One-Step No-Churn Coffee Ice Cream, to name just a few.
Nigella believes that every ingredient must earn its place in a
recipe, and she gives tips and techniques for making the most of
your time in the kitchen. For example, a stash of sweet vermouth
saves you from opening a bottle when you need just a splash. If a
recipe calls for the juice of a lemon, Nigella uses the zest,
too--that's where its force and fragrance lie. She guides you to
stocking your pantry with a few supermarket ingredients and shows
you how to make the most of them for spontaneous meals that taste
boldly Italian.
" "
"Nigellissima" is a love letter to the pleasures of cooking--and
eating--the way Italians do. With a nod to the traditional but in
Nigella's trademark style, here are recipes that excite the
imagination without stressing the cook.

Some of our most cherished memories are of visits to Grandma's
house...and the wonderful meals she cooked for us. When she called
us down for breakfast, we knew there would be homemade caramel
rolls and hot cocoa waiting, just for us. In chilly weather, there
was always a hearty kettle of vegetable soup or chili simmering on
her stove. At dinnertime, the table overflowed with tender chicken
and noodles or slow-baked pot roast, buttery mashed potatoes, brown
sugar carrots (because she knew we wouldn't eat them, otherwise!)
and salads, fresh-picked from her garden. Her cookie jar was filled
with our favorite snickerdoodles or chocolate chip cookies, and
there was always a frosted layer cake in the cake stand. So many
delicious memories! From Grandma's Recipe Box is chock-full of all
these recipes and more, shared by cooks like you, handed down
through generations and still enjoyed today. We've included easy
tips for adding down-home flavor to meals, and for making
get-togethers with family & friends special. If you enjoy
old-fashioned comfort food, you'll love the recipes in this
cookbook! 225 Recipes

For all who love the magical flavors of good Indian cooking and
want to reproduce effortlessly some of the delectable dishes from
that part of the world, here is a groundbreaking book from the
incomparable Madhur Jaffrey that makes it possible. By
deconstructing age-old techniques and reducing the number of steps
in a recipe, as well as helping us to understand the nature of each
spice and seasoning, she enables us to make seemingly exotic Indian
dishes part of our everyday cooking.
- First, she tantalizes us with bite-size delights to snack on with
drinks or tea.
- A silky soup is mellowed with coconut milk; a spinach-and-ginger
soup is perfumed with cloves.
- Fish and seafood are transformed by simple rubs and sauces and
new ways of cooking.
- A lover of eggs and chicken dishes, Jaffrey offers fresh and easy
ways to cook them, including her favorite masala omelet and simple
poached eggs over vegetables. There's chicken from western Goa
cooked in garlic, onion, and a splash of vinegar; from Bombay, it's
with apricots; from Delhi, it's stewed with spinach and cardamom;
from eastern India, it has yogurt and cinnamon; and from the south,
mustard, curry leaves, and coconut.
- There is a wide range of dishes for lamb, pork, and beef with
important tips on what cuts to use for curries, kebabs, and
braises.
- There are vegetable dishes, in a tempting array--from everyday
carrots and greens in new dress to intriguing ways with eggplant
and okra--served center stage for vegetarians or as accompaniments.
- At the heart of so many Indian meals are the "dals, " rice, and
grains, as well as the little salads, chutneys, and pickles that
add sparkle, and Jaffrey opens up a new world of these simple
pleasures.
Throughout, Madhur Jaffrey's knowledge of and love of these foods
is contagious. Here are the dishes she grew up on in India and then
shared with her own family and friends in America. And now that she
has made them so accessible to us, we can incorporate them
confidently into our own kitchen, and enjoy the spice and variety
and health-giving properties of this delectable cuisine.

Stir-frying is one of the quickest and easiest ways to cook - and
one of the healthiest, using little oil and retaining more
nutrients than many other methods. It also requires very little
equipment - all you need a wok, a knife and a chopping board.

is not always so easy to master. Indeed, it is all about timing,
knowing when to add what and how to get the best out of each
ingredient. With tips on everything from controlling the heat to
using the right oil, bestselling author Ching-He Huang has gathered
together a collection of delicious dishes, simple enough for every
day and with nutrition, taste and affordability in mind. Many are
gluten and dairy free, as well as suitable for vegans and
vegetarians, and include both Asian and Western ingredients readily
available in any supermarket. So whether or not you eat meat, love
carbs or prefer to avoid them, want something special or find
yourself having to feed your family, Stir Crazy will do the trick.
