Recipes from My Mother's Kitchen

Author(s): Guy Grossi; Sharyn Cairns (Photographer); Jerry Lewis (Foreword by)

Italian

Guy Grossi's parents emigrated from northern Italy to Melbourne in 1960. While his father worked as a chef, his mother turned out the pastas, braises, soups, and puddings she had learnt growing up in Verona and in Milan, which sustained the hungry family of six. As a young boy Guy learnt from his mother how to knead pagnotta, roll gnocchi, and whisk the zabaglione, and it is this food that has been the inspiration for his cooking ever since. This collection of more than 100 recipes, along with the family stories and memories behind the food, is a very personal invitation to cook with the Grossi family.
