Mama Mia Cucina or Simply Ices

Mama Mia Cucina: A Flavor of Good Food and Good Family

Author: Cindy Goch

Food is woven into the tapestry of our daily lives. It is not only nourishment, it is carefully, creatively, and delectably prepared. Throughout these pages are recipes that were once recalled and spoken, but not written. Within this book we celebrate our family with the passage of time through special occasions, gatherings, and celebrations. This is a gift of the heart given by my grandmother, Maria DiPalma, and my mother, Angela Ferich, to be shared and enjoyed for generations to come. And, it is my great privilege to honor their lifelong work for those of you who enjoy good food.

Buon Appetito

Simply Ices: A Little Book of Tempting Ice Creams and Sorbets

Author: Tessa Hayward

Most people who make homemade ice creams and sorbets invest in an ice cream machine. The machines usually come with a few simple recipes, but what about the user who wants to be more adventurous or exotic?

This book attempts to fill this gap, containing more than 40 recipes all for use with a machine. They cover mouthwatering ones for children such as toffee and yogurt, and peppermint rock and chocolate, and adult recipes such as coffee, sultana, brandy and black currant with creme de cassis.

There is in this collection a variety to tempt every palate and suitable for every occasion including savoury ideas such as tomato and vodka sorbet, and spiced apple, chocolate and burnt almonds. Tessa Hayward is a member of the Guild of Food Writers, and has written a number of cookery books, including "Magimix Cookery", "Steam Cuisine" and "The Salmon Cookbook".
