Good small book with great photos. Recipes use 00 flour, not All-purpose and whole eggs. The ratio is 2.5 cups to 3 eggs (6 ounces of egg to 12 ounces of flour) while chefs at Sur la Table use 3 parts flour to 2 parts egg and the egg is 2 yolks and 3 whites. Chefs at SLT recommend 1 egg and 1.5 cups of flour per person so there's more flour in the recipe in this book. The book has sections for Tagliatelle (which becomes pappardelle or fettucine), lasagne, cannelloni, ravioli, tortelli, and tortellini. Recipes have easy instructions and great photos.
