Arrived in the house from a Secret Santa present and it was handed to me as I like my cookbooks and am always on the lookout for new ideas, inspiration and interesting recipes.
This is a little book!! I'd find it difficult to follow while cooking any of the dishes as the instructions are crammed into part of the page in continuous text and quite small text too.
Good as a sourcebook but it will go out again to a charity bookshop or be another Secret Santa later this year.
It was OK. 3-stars..... I don't warm to the format and wouldn't have bought this myself to cook out of.

A Little Italian Cook Book by Anna Del Conte is just that, a little Cookbook with Italian Recipes. When it comes to Italian Cooking, I think Fresh, Rustic, Comfort Food. This was definitely Rustic, but there a so many fabulous recipes to choose from and only one or two in this cookbook that looked appetizing. Sorry, this cook book was just okay for me.
