Grandma Gina's debut cookbook featuring recipes demonstrated on her YouTube channel, "Buon-A-Petitti". These recipes reflect Italian homestyle cooking of many cooking-staples, soups, main courses, and side dishes, along with cakes, cookies, and treats. All made from scratch! Recipes have detailed steps using easy to find ingredients. Some of the recipe portions have been reduced from the video demonstrations to make them easier to replicate. If you like Italian food, this is a cookbook you must have. As Gina says, “You wanna eat, you gotta cook!”
Fantastic book! Love your you tube video so just had to get your book (kindle). Made you egg plant Parm and was the best I have ever had. You inspire me to make fresh pasta for all my favorite dishes. Love you Gina
Grandma Gina is a beautiful lady, and a outstanding cook. I watch her on YouTube and enjoy her show very much. She has a great personality and her food is just what a family would enjoy.
This book is wonderful. The recipes are authentic. This is REAL food. Gina’s YouTube channel is addictive. Grandma Gina is a bicultural treasure. Bless her.
I’m a vegan and found many useable recipes for my family. I have always loved her minestrone soup recipe. It is so nice to have tomato, pasta and bread recipes. Absolutely will sit front and center with my cookbooks.
I loved watching Grandma Gina on Youtube so much I bought her cookbook of tradional Italian recipes. The book just takes me back to the best of my childhood memories of family and food and great Italian food traditions. Grandma Gina cookbook is packed with recipe after recipe with sections divided into soups, sides, mains, desserts and the first Grandma Gina's cooking staples. The recipes I've tried are tasty and are intended both for everyday and special occasion meals. This book makes Grandma Gina even more endearing and her bright, generous personality shines. The pictures are lovely and accurately show the recipe. The whole book has an at down to earth cooking at home the Italian way feel.
