The Best Italian Pasta Books

A good English language pasta book is hard to find. Sounds silly doesn't it, after all there are so many of them on the market.
Ten years of living in Italy and being married to a wonderful Italian chef (also a great lady) has helped me to realize that most of the pasta cook books on the market are not at all "authentic."
The pasta dishes in Italy are just so wonderful and so varied but so few cook books reflect this. Something is always missing or the recipes have been changed greatly from the real Italian original. To illustrate my point, did you know the Pasta Alfredo does not even exist in Italy and neither does deep pan pizza.
Well getting back on track, my wife and I have kind of developed a pet project. We have vetted a whole bunch of books to find those that truly capture the real Italian cuisine. Many of these books reflect Italian cooking in general (see the link at the bottom of the page for details) and not just pasta. But when it comes to great English language books exclusively about pasta there is one that all pasta lovers should have handy in the kitchen. No doubt you already have it if you love cooking pasta, it is a real classic. The book is: Everyday Pasta.
Very well written and presented, our edition of this book is so well used that it is now very dog-eared. The recipes are ideal for that quick dinner or light lunch. They are easy to follow, very simple and yet they are really delicious. Some are very slightly changed from the original Italian recipes but most are 100% authentic. I love the Capellini Piemontese and the Fried Zucchini but there are many many more great dishes.
Everyday Pasta will sort you out with a good deal of pasta recipes but there is so much more to Italian cooking and my next article will be about a really special book with hundreds of quite magnificent recipes.
