Additional Details

Description: Cathy Cremaldi and her family have created an Italian food tradition in the Boston area. Her parents' shop, Trio's, famous for its fresh red sauce, has become an institution in the city's North End. Cathy and her husband Cosmo's Cambridge store, Cremaldi's, create fantasies of pasta and sauce combinations for crowds of busy professionals to prepare at home. 

Now The Cremaldi Cookbook blends the classic recipes of her family's heritage with the innovative creations so popular with Cathy Cremaldi's own customers brightly colored pastas tinted with carrot, beet, fennel, or nutmeg; strong, clear, provocative sauces like ginger-vermouth (so good with seafood) and lemon-scallop (perfect with the tang of lemon fettuccine). There are delectable breads and Italian favorites like fried dough, pizza, and calzone, all benefiting from the Cremaldi touch. 

And you'll find an enticing assortment of Italian specialties, including an intoxicating variety of sausages, soups, stews, and desserts. From beginning to end, Cathy's running commentary spices the book with family lore and home-style advice. 

Surprisingly, the majority of recipes are quick and easy, and the homemade pastas require no special equipment. In the Cremaldi fashion, this cookbook encourages you to create your own specialties by mixing the freshest ingredients with the time- honored tastes and traditions of this innovative culinary family.
