IACP AWARD FINALIST • Reimagine Italian-American cooking, with more than 125 recipes rich with flavor and nostalgia from the celebrated husband-and-wife chef team of Michelin-starred Don Angie in New York City.
“Every bit of warmth and hospitality that you feel when you walk into Don Angie pours out of every page of this magical book.”—Michael Symon
ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: New York Post, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Food52, Epicurious, Taste of Home

The words “red sauce” alone conjure images of an Italian-American table full of antipasti, both hot and cold, whisked off to make room for decadent baked pastas topped with molten cheese, all before a procession of chicken parm or pork chops all pizzaiola—and we haven’t even gotten to dessert. It’s old-school cooking beloved by many and imbued with a deep sense of family.
In Italian American, Angie Rito and Scott Tacinelli, the chefs of critically acclaimed Don Angie in New York City’s West Village, reinvigorate the genre with a modern point of view that proudly straddles the line between Italian and American. They present family classics passed down through generations side-by-side with creative spins and riffs inspired by influences both old and new. These comforting dishes feel familiar but are far from expected, including their signature pinwheel lasagna, ribs glazed with orange and Campari, saucy shrimp parm meatballs, and a cheesy, bubbling gratin of broccoli rabe and sharp provolone.
Full of family history and recipes that will inspire a new generation, Italian American provides an essential, spirited introduction to an unforgettable way of cooking.

      The chefs behind New York's acclaimed Don Angie restaurant have risen to success by blending time-tested Italian "red sauce" recipes with flavors from global cuisines. Rito and Tacinelli together with food writer Feldmar have created a cookbook with recipes for hot and cold antipasti, lasagnas, pastas from scratch, mains, desserts, and drinks, all with the customary Don Angie inventiveness. Typical recipes include Spicy Giardiniera alla Kimchi, Grandma Rito's Marinated Roasted Red Peppers, and Pickled Eggplant a Scapece with Sumac and Mint. Bright photographs of the dishes, paired with old family photos and clippings lend to the charm of the cookbook, which feels like browsing a scrapbook in a cozy Little Italy eatery. Many recipes are big projects with lots of ingredients and steps, so this book is best for intermediate and advanced home cooks. A particular highlight are Grandpa Rito's Cannoli (a favorite at the Rito family bakery in Cleveland for over 50 years). VERDICT The red sauce approach sets this cookbook apart and will spark the interest of home cooks ready to ditch the jar and tackle from-scratch Italian cooking.--Jennifer Clifton, Indiana State Lib., Indianapolis
