Both were born in the small hilltop town of Fagnano Castello, Calabria and later immigrated to Australia to start a better life. They settled in the Mareeba, Dimbulah district in Far North Queensland and worked on tobacco farms along with their husbands and children. All through our childhood and young adult life, we marvelled at how food appeared on the table at every lunch and dinner but not really appreciating the efforts or the behind the scenes action which took place in the kitchen, nor the preparation needed sometimes days before. All this they did willingly and with love, never tiring and always glad to feed the masses who turned up for Sunday lunch.Franceschina and Delma did not know each other in Fagnano, but through the marriage between 2 of their children, Michael and Maria, a special bond developed and so their journey continues now with two joined families. With the traditional wood fired oven in the back shed, they fast became renowned for making the best Pitta e  Pane in Mareeba. It soon became apparent to us that all these traditional recipes would one day be lost if not recorded. To date most of these recipes are made from experience, knowing by touch and taste if enough of any one ingredient is sufficient. Along with the actual ingredients it was crucial to document the way the food is prepared and worked to create the special shapes.We felt it was important to tie the recipes back to their origins and interleave images and thoughts of Fagnano Castello within the book. These images and inspirational quotes serve to remind us all that life can sometimes get too complicated and we should slow down, reflect and most importantly, enjoy the food from the heart.Michael Martino was born in Fagnano Castello, Calabria Italy and immigrated with his sister and Mother, Franceschina Martino to Australia in 1965. Franceschina and her husband, Pasquale Martino settled in Mareeba and worked on the tobacco and sugar cane farms in the region. With his strong attachment to the traditional Italian way of life and new found opportunities in Australia he continues to enjoy the best of both worlds. He is a practicing Architect in Far North Queensland and has a deep sense of gratitude for his upbringing and is proud to have retained his traditional heritage. Maria Ernestina DeRose was born in 1964 in Dimbulah, Far North Queensland Australia where she spent all her childhood on her parent's tobacco farm. Her parents, Irio Cleto DeRose and Delma Pompea DeRose also immigrated from Fagnano Castello in 1950 and 1951 and through that background Maria grew up knowing and experiencing the old Italian traditions. As a young girl she was always in the kitchen helping her mother and learning the old recipes. As an adult she continues to practice the old ways of living and aims to share her cooking experience with all her friends.Michael and Maria are married with two children, Francesca and Gabriel Pasquale who they hold dear to their hearts. They have journey back to Italy and especially Fagnano Castello, on numerous occasions to bond with their relatives and to experience the true Calabrian Way.Southern Italian cooking, traditional Calabrian recipe, Italian travel experiences, authentic Italian recipes, Italian food, The Calabrian Way is a testament to our gratitude and our special way of thanking our Mothers for persevering with the old traditional ways. We hope to carry on with their legacy and introduce the world to our special little place we often all home...

You will find recipes for homemade pasta, sausage, and eggplant appetizer, for Hungarian cakes and cookies, and that Texan chef's crab claw appetizer.

As a young girl, Mary loved being in the kitchen tasting the freshly made sauce, smelling the cookies baking in the oven, or waiting for the next taste test. When cooking or baking, Nonna Mary used to ask Mary to sing or whistle. Mary learned later in life that it wasn't to hear her (beautiful?) singing voice, but that Nonna Mary did this to be sure Mary wasn't eating the ingredients! Nonna Mary was an amazing baker. Two favorite memories of Mary's are Sunday family dinners and Christmas Eve. Sunday dinners were a family favorite that her mother carried on for years-fresh sauce cooking all day, fresh Italian bread, homemade meatballs and sausage, different types of pastas... The entire family would come over and sit around the kitchen table for hours. Every Christmas Eve the older generation carried on the tradition of the seven fishes, and there would be a kitchen full of different types of homemade pizzas. We would crowd around the table and enjoy one another's company. Mary has her Ph.D. from Miami University, MBA from Cleveland State University, and BA from Baldwin Wallace University; she has numerous publications and has earned multiple awards. She is a tenured university professor and also a contributor to In the Limelight and ItalyUSA magazines. Mary is also the owner of Ciao Down Italian Cookies, LLC, a side business she started in honor of her grandmother. She is a proud member of the Order Sons and Daughters of Italy in America (OSDIA); Mary serves as a co-host on the Facebook series OSDIA Interviews LIVE where she had the pleasure of interviewing amazing Italian and Italian American chefs including Lidia Bastianich, Mary Ann Esposito, Ale Gambini, and Cara Di Falco. Additionally, she was asked by Ale Gambini to write a review for her new cookbook. For the Order, she serves in multiple roles nationally, for the Grand Lodge of Ohio, and locally. Additionally, her mother was quoted a number of times in the Cleveland Memories book series, sharing stories of her Italian upbringing.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSiciliano, Corrina:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Corrina Siciliano learned to cook at home from her mother. Growing up in an all-Italian family, waking up on Sunday morning smelling her mother's sauce on the stove was a weekly family tradition. Corrina would stand in the kitchen and watch her mother add all the ingredients into a large sauce pan to simmer all day long. Since her mother didn't measure anything, she remembers frequently being asked to check the sauce on the stove by taking a spoon and tasting it to determine if anything needed to be added. Sundays meant being in the kitchen all day with much anticipation for a large pasta dinner with sausage and meatballs. Corrina remembers when her grandmother threw flour in the middle of the kitchen table and said, Let me show you how we make homemade dough! Cooking traditions have been something that have been passed down as her grandmother would share stories about her mother and sisters, and how they would cook Italian foods and desserts. She was taught how to make her famous pepperoni roll and homemade pizzas from her mother, who would make them for all her birthday parties throughout her childhood. She remembers her friends always excited to come over for dinner, knowing they were getting a homemade Italian meal. Now, Corrina is always asked to make her pepperoni roll when she is invited to any events, and it's still a party favorite! Growing up, any special occasions, holidays, and even funerals have always been centered around Italian food. Corrina was taught that this is how you show love, support, and sympathy to others-through the love of food. As an avid marathon and ultra-marathon runner, Corrina takes advantage of what she learned from her grandmother and mother. She takes her pasta and pizza cooking skills to create carb-loaded meals to fuel for her runs and shares those with friends in the running community. Corrina earned her BA from Baldwin Wallace University. As a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) and working in the corporate financial industry for over 20 years, she continues to share recipes with co-workers and friends, who always look to add traditional Italian meals to their lives.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSiciliano, Angela:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \"Angela Siciliano is a home cook. Growing up she was taught to cook traditional Italian meals at home, never eating out. She has many memories spent in the kitchen with her grandmother cooking and listening to stories on how her great grandmother would do things. Angela's biggest influence and teacher was her mother. Angela's mother taught her the true Italian way to cook-by look, taste, smell, and love-which is never formally measuring but using the senses to know when things are ready. In the Italian culture, food is love! Italians cook and share large amounts of food with friends, family, and anyone that may visit. Angela redesigns recipes making them her own by using this technique of her senses, from how she was taught. She is now passing her family's traditional Italian cooking on to her two daughters. Research finds that people who eat home-cooked meals on a regular basis tend to be happier, healthier, and live longer lives. Angela has a passion for health and fitness. She is an American Council on Exercise (ACE) certified instructor a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) and owns her own business - Adapted Fitness and Yoga Plus, LLC. Angela's business primarily focuses on fitness for individuals with disabilities and their families.

Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. At the age 71, Artusi completed his cookbook, but could not find a publisher. So he used his own money to self-publish, selling a thousand copies of the first edition in four years. Soon, however, the cookbook caught on, and before Artusi died, more than 200,000 copies had been sold. Filled with amusing anecdotes as well as recipes, the book is a perennial best seller in Italy, and has been translated into Spanish, Dutch, German and English, and most recently, Portuguese. The most important reason for Artusi's continued popularity, is that the book is fun. Artusi was a bon-vivant, a noted raconteur, and a celebrated host; he knew many of the leading figures of his day and read widely in the arts and sciences. Almost half his recipes contain anecdotes or snippets of advice on subjects as varied as regional dialects and public health: While you may open the book to find out how to make Minestrone or a German cake, you will probably read on to find out how Artusi escaped cholera, or what the Austrian troops who occupied Northern Italy in the 1840's were like.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Martino Fine Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50421701017874,"sku":"9781614272878","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_41b7f12c-3e77-4777-8cec-6a90ae563b67.jpg?v=1729511444"},{"product_id":"positano-the-amalfi-coast-cookbook-travel-guide-9798682532773","title":"Positano The Amalfi Coast Cookbook: Travel Guide","description":"Positano The Amalfi Coast Cookbook - Travel Guide is like no other book that has been written on Positano, Naples, and the Amalfi Coast.
