Nonna's House: Cooking and Reminiscing with the Italian Grandmothers of Enoteca Maria
Description
This beautiful collection of food and nostalgia features great traditions from
the heart of Italy, with delicious recipes and colorful stories from the
internationally celebrated grandmothers of Enoteca Maria—a one-of-a-kind
Italian restaurant where a rotating cast of nonnas are the star chefs. Enoteca
Maria takes great home cooking seriously. At this intimate, hospitable
restaurant on Staten Island, all the cooking is done by ten nonnas
(grandmothers), drawing on their own family recipes, handed down for
generations, which reflect their regional traditions. Here are their delicious
homemade pastas, risottos, desserts, and more, which have foodies from all
over the world taking the ferry to the forgotten borough for an authentic
taste of Italy. Beautiful full-color photography captures the fresh,
distinctive flavors of these surprising dishes. Nonna Cristina shares her
beautiful Risotto with Strawberries, Black Pepper, and Parmesan; Nonna
Margherita offers delectable Stuffed Peppers with Pine Nuts and Raisins; and
Nonna Teresa shows off her prize-winning Meat and Cheese Lasagna. Nonna Elvira
whips up her peerless Linguine with Cuttlefish and Ink; Adelina creates a
savory Tagliatelle with Pumpkin, Sausage, and Chestnuts; and Rosaria makes
handmade Spaghetti alla Chitarra with Cherry Tomatoes and Porcini Mushrooms.
Nonna Carmelina shares her classic Potato Pie with Ham, Salami, and
Mozzarella; Rosa confides her nonna’s secret recipe for Rabbit with Sage; and
Nina sautés Chicken alla Capricciosa, with prosciutto and mushrooms. Nonna
Francesca launches the book with advice on the time-honored art of preserving
everything from olives to soppressata. With its utterly delicious tastes of
grandmother’s kitchen, Nonna’s House is a legacy of flavors passed down
through generations, now captured here forever. Restaurant founder Jody
Scaravella says it best: “If I have a choice between a three-star Michelin
chef’s restaurant and Grandma’s, I’m going to Grandma’s. I’m going to the
source.” Read more
