Italian Cookbooks: The Frankies Spuntino Kitchen Companion & Cooking Manual

by Matt
(Pasta Recipes Made Easy)

Another winning read from the Brooklyn area of New York City, this Mario Batali-acclaimed book is one seriously hot read.

In case you don't know, Frankies Spuntino is a trendy tin and brick eater in Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens and its food has been described by the New York Times' critic Frank Bruni as "completely satisfying". So you can expect good things from its recipe collection!

And good things you certainly get... as this book effectively compiles the entire Frankies menu into home cook-friendly form, featuring their much-loved cavatelli with hot sausage and browned butter and small dinner party friendly bites such as cremini mushroom and truffle oil crostini.

Pure, simple and delicious, the recipes are just like the food you can order in the restaurant - well worth trying.
