Reimagine Italian American cooking with more than 125 big-hearted recipes from the celebrated husband-and-wife chef team of Don Angie in New York City. Old-school, Italian American "red sauce" is a beloved style of cooking that is rich with nostalgia, a deep sense of family, and the promise of irresistible food--copious amounts of it. Offerings may include an endless assortment of antipasti at the start of every meal, multi-layered chicken and eggplant parms, enormous casseroles of luscious baked pastas laden with molten cheese--and don' t forget dessert. In their debut cookbook, Angie Rito and Scott Tacinelli, the chefs of Don Angie in New York City' s West Village, reinvigorate the genre with a modern point of view that includes multicultural influences inspired by New York City and updated dishes that proudly straddle the line between Italian and American. Italian American is organized by the backbones of the cuisine, including cold and hot antipasto, ragus, pastas, and even entire chapters dedicated to lasagna and meatballs. Inspired by influences both old and new, these comforting dishes feel familiar but are far from expected, including Campari & Orange Sticky Ribs, Eggplant Pinwheel Lasagna, Shrimp Parm Meatballs, and Spiced Lamb Ragu alla Marsala. Rich with family history from Scott and Angie' s immigrant grandparents and great-grandparents, Italian American provides an essential, spirited introduction to an unforgettable way of cooking.
"Italian American is a book you must have on your shelves. It is filled with so much passion and so many stories, featuring food I not only grew up with but crave and cook daily. Angie and Scott are great chefs and fabulous people, and every bit of warmth and hospitality that you feel when you walk into their restaurant, Don Angie, pours out of every page of this magical book. "--Michael Symon, James Beard Award-winning chef, New York Times bestselling author, and restaurateur "A book I have been waiting for since I tasted the best lasagna in the world! I love the West Village in New York City. It is brimming with restaurants, eateries, and cafes, but few as polished and delicious as Don Angie. That the restaurant' s owners are now sharing some of their amazing recipes for all home cooks is remarkable. Thank you, Scott and Angie!"--Martha Stewart "Scott and Angie have honored their Italian American roots, Southern Italian flavors, family traditions, and experimented with new ingredients in such a beautiful way. Their ancestors redefined and created a new type of cuisine when they came to America, which is exactly what Scott and Angie are doing today. "--Jean-Georges Vongerichten, chef and restaurateur "Just reading Italian American made my mouth water while the story of family and honoring tradition warmed my heart. I love Angie and Scott' s belief in the importance of a culinary exchange between Italy and America. "--Brooke Shields, American actress and model
