Italian American Forever - Signed

* Signed bookplate * Beloved Food Network star Alex Guarnaschelli dishes up 120 of her go-to Italian American favorites for all the red-sauced, pan-fried, crispy-cornered, baked-until-bubbly classics you'll want to eat every night. Alex Guarnaschelli is a French-trained chef, a celebrity chef, a short-order-mom chef…and she’s also an Italian American chef. Her famous cookbook-editor mom’s heritage was Sicilian (which Alex says made her slightly more dangerous); and her dad’s people are from Bari. She pledged allegiance to her father’s marinara on weekdays and her mom’s on the weekend and grew up eating at many of the red-checked tablecloth trattorias in New York City—and she still shops for fresh mozz and crunchy biscotti in the specialty stores and bakeries in Little Italy. For Alex, this isn’t special occasion eating - this is life.
