Acclaimed food writer Nancy Jenkins, teams up with her master chef daughter Sara with a unique around-the-seasons cookbook devoted to simple, everyday pasta recipes There are few ingredients in a cook’s pantry that beat out pasta—for tastiness, for ease of preparation, for versatility, and for sheer delight. It’s irresistible to all and perfect for every occasion. In The Four Seasons of Pasta, Sara Jenkins and Nancy Harmon Jenkins celebrate the Italian native that has become a beloved American staple. Jenkins and her mom draw on their own background in Italy, where they’ve lived, cooked, studied, and worked in Rome and Florence, and on a Tuscan olive farm for many years. Today, Sara is a highly accomplished chef and owner of Porsena and Porchetta, two restaurants in New York’s East Village while Nancy is a nationally known food journalist and authority on the Mediterranean diet, with a number of prominent cookbooks to her credit (including The New Mediterranean Diet Cookbook and Flavors of Tuscany). The Four Seasons of Pasta brings together more than 120 recipes focused on seasonal ingredients from supermarkets and farmstands across America, from the gamey meat ragus, chestnuts, and brilliant pumpkins in autumn to summer’s explosion of tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers. Nancy and Sara introduce readers to quick-and-easy weeknight dishes as well as more ambitious affairs while four-color photography brings the recipes vividly to life. Along the way, the two cooks delve into how to cook, sauce, and present pasta, how to make it by hand, and pasta’s significant place in a healthy modern diet. The Four Seasons of Pasta is an invaluable tool for home cooks seeking to enjoy the quintessential food that’s in their pantry all year-round.

A creative approach to seasonal cooking, A DISH FOR ALL SEASONS presents 26 adaptable recipes, each with four seasonal variations, for a total of more than 100 accessible recipes for creative weeknight cooking. This practical cookbook flips the script on recipe books organized by season. Instead of dedicated recipes to Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter—which would mean three quarters of the book goes unused for three quarters of the year—this book features 26 go-to recipes, each with four variations. Every dish includes a base recipe—such as a simple frittata, Panzanella salad, sheet pan dinner, or loaf cake—plus four adaptations based on the season. Readers will also find simple instructions and formulas for creating original dishes, giving them the tools they need to improvise based on the ingredients they have on hand. With a photograph to accompany all 100 dishes, this is a versatile, repertoire-building cookbook will be a go-to resource for home cooks looking to create delicious, healthy food all year long. SMART STRATEGY BOOK: This book teaches home cooks to cook creatively. With a base recipe, seasonal variations, and instructions for adapting the recipe using whatever ingredients are on hand, readers can choose to follow a seasonal recipe exactly, swap out an ingredient or two depending on what's available at their local market, or experiment with their own, totally original combinations. GREAT VALUE: With more than 100 go-to recipes, plus instructions and formulas that let readers experiment, this cookbook is a great value. Like DINNER'S IN THE OVEN and other weeknight books featuring lots of photography and simple recipes, the package is as appealing as the content. RECIPES WITH WIDE APPEAL: These are the kind of recipes that people actually cook on a regular basis—easy weekday staples such as oatmeal, hummus, quesadillas, sheet-pan dinners, penne pasta with meatballs—but with a seasonal twist. Perfect for: • Beginner cooks who want to master a few staple dishes • Home cooks of all skill levels looking for easy, creative weeknight recipes • Amateur chefs interested in updated basics • People who like to cook seasonally and shop at the local farmer's market

Back-Cover Authentic recipes with origins in the Neapolitan and Abruzzi regions of Italy found their way to southern New Jersey with Italian immigrants settling there around the turn of the twentieth century. The Rodios were among those who established farms, planted their roots in the Jersey soil, and nurtured their families in the New World. This book is not only a legacy of hand-me-down recipes that were perfected over a century or more, but it is also a memoir about a lost era in Americana culinary history. It chronicles a time when food nourished the heart and soul, a time when love inspired family and friends to have impromptu gatherings, and a time when being with loved ones was as important as the food on the table. Arranged by seasons and emphasizing the importance of using fresh produce, the pages unveil a cornucopia of Italian classics, as well as some innovative ideas that will whet the palate. Highlighted are seasonal themes where the readers find themselves embraced within the family circle as they eat and enjoy the Easter bread, fire up the summer grill, slaughter the pigs for the harvest festival, and soak the salt cod for the Christmas Eve Feast of the seven fishes.

Unlike other books or writings on doggish men, this one is specifically unique because you get the truth from their own words. Fifteen men are interviewed to give you not only the why, when it comes to their doggish ways, but also the how, and their true feelings about their actions. In this book we look at the married dog, the ones that seem to just "fall out of love", cut buddies, and that's not even the half. Open it and you will find the story of Eighty-Eight, a man that let his image allow him to mistreat the woman that he truly loved, and Boss B, one who's two-timing ways introduced him to the true fury of a woman scorned, along with many more. You thought you knew it all about these kind of men, well you have no idea! www.readjereme.com
