Review Quotes
Piatti is a great collection of seasonal Italian recipes, a tribute to the Italian culinary culture of using the freshest of ingredients when in season. Scattered between recipes is the love of Italians gathering with family and friends at the table. Stacy Adimando in her book Piatti has achieved that perfect balance between traditional techniques and recipes with contemporary presentation and feel. Brava Stacy. --Lidia Bastianich, Public Television host, cookbook author, restaurateur
A glorious and intimate collection of recipes that carefully and lovingly articulates the ingenuity of Italian home cooks passed down from generation to generation, Piatti embodies the conviviality of the Italian table. --Evan Funke, award-winning chef of Felix Trattoria
In Piatti, antipasti extends beyond just being the beginning of a great Italian meal to sometimes become the meal itself. Stacy brings a fresh perspective to a range of traditional dishes like broccoli stromboli, black-eyed peas with swiss chard, and tomato and raw beet panzanella. Unexpected plates like seared radishes with walnuts and roasted shallots with pomegranate go way beyond the usual suspects to complete a generous spread. --Andrew Carmellini, James Beard Award-winning chef, restaurateur, and author
In Piatti, Stacy Adimando thoughtfully bridges two worlds that I know and love: classic Italian plates and dishes from the Italian-American kitchen. The result is an inspiring and vibrant new take on traditional antipasti. Whether you're looking to adorn your table with a touch of Italian flavor or lay out a full-on antipasto spread, Piatti is filled with a veritable buffet of generous, help-yourself platters perfect for grazing.--Katie Parla, author of Tasting Rome
