Cookbook Club- Pasta Veloce In-Person
Join us for a cooking demonstration and discussion on this month's cookbook selection, "Pasta Veloce: Irresistibly Fast Recipes from Under the Tuscan Sun" by Frances Mayes
"This cookbook offers a multitude of under-30-minute luscious recipes, all accompanied by Mayes’s evocative text. While there are numerous pasta cookbooks, few feature a true Italophile’s passion and eye for detail that can get a dish to the table in, as Mayes describes, “the time it takes to boil water.” With a Tagliatelle with Duck Confit, Chestnuts, and Coffee Reduction and a glittering Capellini with Golden Caviar to the perfect vodka sauce, Pasta Veloce is your guide on those nights when you’re ready to skip the whole production of it but still want to eat like royalty in a rustic Italian village."
Cookbook Evaluation Tips:
Read the cookbook thinking about how it's organized, what techniques are used, if there are there quality photos. Test some recipes at home, then join us to discuss while your moderator makes a dish from the cookbook for everyone to sample.
