Product Description
Finally a book that combines the fresh, exuberant flavors of great Italian food with the ease and comfort of a slow cooker. Michele Scicolone, a best-selling author and an authority on Italian cooking, shows how good ingredients and simple techniques can lift the usual “crockpot” fare into the dimension of fine food. Pasta with Meat and Mushroom Ragu, Osso Buco with Red Wine, Chicken with Peppers and Mushrooms: These are dishes that even the most discriminating cook can proudly serve to company, yet all are so carefree that anyone with just five or ten minutes of prep time can make them on a weekday and return to perfection.

Simmered in the slow cooker, soups, stews, beans, grains, pasta sauces, and fish are as healthy as they are delicious. Polenta and risotto, “stir-crazy” dishes that ordinarily need careful timing, are effortless. Meat loaves come out perfectly moist, tough cuts of meat turn succulent, and cheesecakes emerge flawless.

    I think the book was really pretty, but i could not even eat the butternut soup. It was terrible, unless I did something very wrong. It was simple to follow and i doubled checked. I will attempt one more, and then i will sell this one fast.

    What a wonderful cookbook! I’ve made quite a few recipes from it and each one has been fantastic. They are also easily adaptable to cooking in the oven if you want to double the recipe for larger crowds. Whether you’re an experienced cook who likes to modify recipes, or a novice just learning the art of cooking, you can’t go wrong with buying this book.

    I was very excited to receive this cookbook. It has wonderful recipes but it is not for the regular full-time working person. Most of the recipes have to be finished long before someones 8 or 9 hour day is done. I have found it to be a wonderful addition to my weekend cooking adventures when I have more time to attend to a recipe. Very well written and the finished product has been delicious!!
