Beautiful book with great recipes and step by step instructions on how to make every kind of pasta you can dream up. It’s a timeless classic for sure. This book will never go out of style.

May 4, 2019, author Bugialli passes away at age 88. I purchased this book in a large lot of cookbooks at auction. I wasn’t aware of the author’s reputation at the time. The 1988 edition’s photos are dated and not particularly appealing by today’s Instagram-worthy standards. There are many hand-drawn images demonstrating different methods of pasta making (though many appear to demonstrate how to roll & cut pasta through a machine - not something that needs repeated demonstration, really. I haven’t tried any of the recipes yet - will return to the review once I have.
