Silver Spoon PastaI love Pasta and I love cookbooks.  I was really excited to have the opportunity to review The Silver Spoon Pasta (Silver Spoon Book).  There is tons of information in this book – including recipes, tips, and information about the different types of pastas!  I love that it has the pasta types divided into chapters.  In each chapter is information about the pasta as well as a recipe featuring that type of pasta.  It’s really a great cookbook!

Here is what it says on the back of the book: “Following the phenomenal success of The Silver Spoon, this book contains everything you will ever need to know about making and serving authentic pasta.  Greatly expanded from the selection in the original book, these 360 recipes come from every region of Italy and are suitable for any occasion.  The Silver Spoon: Pasta includes tips on choosing the right shapes for the right sauce, preparing your own dough and serving up pasta like the Italians do.  Whether you are feeding the family, cooking for one, or preparing a dinner party, The Silver Spoon: Pasta has the perfect dish for every day of the year.”

Overall, this is a great book!  If you love pasta and love cooking, this is a must-have to add to your recipe collection!  The book retails in bookstores and online for $39.95.  Add this to your Christmas wish list today!

    This sounds like a good cookbook. Pasta is one of the foods I can serve that everyone in my family likes. I didn’t know, though, that you choose the right SHAPE pasta to match the SAUCE!
