Most
people believe that yellow, white and pink tomatoes are low in
acidity. That's not the case. A lot of misinformation has been
printed in the popular press about "low acid"
tomatoes referring to those with a sweet, non-tart
taste. The higher sugar content actually masks the
acidic flavour. Since all tomatoes are high in acid, Gina adds sugar to her
red tomato
sauce.

Irresistible Italian
With this cookbook, you do not need to go out for Italian any
more. Gina designed her cookbook around keeping your budget
under control. With rising food costs, that is an important
consideration. And these recipes will be a hit with your
family and your friends. They are based on the freshest,
finest flavours offered by Italy. Gina would give nothing
less than her best in these recipes. If you love Italian
food, then this cookbook is just what are you looking
for.
You
too can create an authentic Manicotti dinner like this one.
After
growing up in an Italian immigrant family, Gina Patterson is
naturally at home in her kitchen. And she is sharing the
secrets to her greatness in the cookbook offered here. With
easy recipes based on traditional Italian cooking,
Irresistible Italian is a good starting place. Each recipe
is based on the same recipes that Gina learned at her
mother’s side. The recipes were developed and perfected
over many generations. These recipes are
made with many ingredients that can be found in your own
cupboard. Add to this fresh produce from the garden or
your local market and you
are set to go.
It also makes a perfect gift for the person who loves to cook!
The
design of the cookbook was created with the busy cook in
mind. You can take out each recipe card and take a
look at the picture before you try it. Once you choose the
recipe, you can prop it up for convenient viewing. That
means no fumbling with a traditional cookbook. Holding a book open at a certain page can be tricky. And if you are
working with more than one recipe in the same book, it
becomes impossible. With Gina’s recipe cards, that problem is
solved. With a wide variety of recipes to try, where do you
start? Once you have the cookbook, then it is up to you.
The collection of recipes comes in a jewel case filled
with Recipe Cards with a full picture of
the dish and comprehensive instructions on the back.
"From
beginners to seasoned
home cooks, you will be amazed at how tasteful and
simple the recipes are to prepare! I always try to buy
fresh, local, organic foods. I find this ensures the authentic Italian
flavours I'm looking for!"....Gina
