4.0 out of 5 stars Just like the food I ate in Rome Dec 8 2012
By ILoveRome - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This summer I visited Rome and the coast of Italy with my husband. I didn't know what to expect and was surprised by the simple yet wonderfully delicious food. I absolutely feel in love. Still on a high when I returned I saw this book and was pleasantly surprised to see recipes for dishes we had enjoyed. I make Speghettini con Zucchine e Speck all the time; a dish we enjoyed in a small cafe when we were looking for a fast meal. I really enjoy the notes from the author which are included with each recipe; it makes me want to learn even more about my new favorite place on earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars a winner April 10 2012
By Cook-the-Book - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I don't have much time but I am surprised this book isn't getting more reviews. When it first came I looked through and thought, "maybe there's not so much in this one from Domenica", but once I got time to take a look through, I made four things from the book the first weekend I played with it. All were interesting and so easy, I even was making them in a relative's kitchen with rudimentary equipment. The recipes don't necessarily look that different if you have a lot of italian cookbooks (as I do), but she adds little twists to each that are really interesting with so little work. The title "Rustic Italian" is a bit overplayed these days so maybe that's why more people aren't reviewing this little gem. It's a winner and I will be keeping it handy!

RUSTIC ITALIAN (William Sonoma):
Simple, Authentic Recipes for Everyday Cooking
By Domenica Marchetti; photography by Maren Caruso

A review by Marty Martindale

Domenica Marchetti proudly calls upon her Italian heritage in over 100 recipes. This is a beautiful 223-page Italian cookbook with a great number of beautiful, full-page photographs.

Rustic Italian is broken down into six parts: Antipasti, Soups & Salads, Pasta, Fish & Meat, Sides and Desserts. Marchetti also includes a Meat and Cheese Guide, a Wine Guide and her suggestions for an ample Italian pantry. At the start of each recipe section, the author shares even more of her recollections of her beautiful birth country.

Here's a random selection of some of her promising recipes:
