ENCYCLOPEDIA OF PASTA - ORETTA ZANINI DE VITA G...

2010 James Beard Foundation Award Winner  Reference and Scholarship This is an amazing and
deeply valuable work of culinary scholarship--an anthropology of Italian pasta that is also a
major contribution to Italian cultural history. Maureen Fant's fine translation does complete
justice to Oretta Zanini's scrupulously detailed and lovingly presented compendium. I defy
anyone to read this book and not want immediately to board a plane for Italy.--Nancy Harmon
Jenkins  author of Cucina del Sole and The Essential Mediterranean This handsome book will be
the authority for settling bets about the history of pasta. Every ambitious cook will covet
these authentic and exciting entries.--Paul Levy  coauthor of The Official Foodie Handbook and
Out to Lunch Zanini's singular achievement in this book has been to shine a light into every
Italian kitchen where a different kind of pasta is made  entertaining us with pertinent
historical anecdotes  instructing us with explicit details and techniques  and making us
powerfully hungry.--Victor Hazan  author of Italian Wine
