Book’s subtitled: “ More Than 200 Simple Italian Recipes From Television’s “Love Chef.”” Used but mostly clean condition to this entertaining and informative Italian cookbook from the early 1990s. From the dust jacket notes: “ Francis Anthony, author and official chef of LIVE WITH REGIS AND KATHIE LEE, returns to his roots with a collection of lusty Italian recipes and family reminiscences. Francis has turned to family members for inspiration, but he reinterprets traditional recipes for today’s cooks. The emphasis is on fresh, easy-to-prepare dishes made with ingredients available in the supermarket. Here are treasured Anthony family favorites, like Uncle Tony’s Lentil Soup, Mother Anthony’s soul-satisfying Polenta with Sauce, Aunt Ida’s Meatballs with Capers, and a savory Pumpkin Cheesecake. Italian classics - such as Veal Piccata, Veal Shanks with Rice, Chicken with Artichokes, and Fish with White Wine - are all here, but they are easier than ever before.”
