My four sisters and I love to read and we love to entertain. This book shares the Trigiani family treasure that inspires both passions: the recipes that were handed down to us and the stories that have sustained and enriched us. Like many other women of our generation, we learned to cook by watching our mothers and our grandmothers who tapped the ancient roots of three Italian regions while adapting their recipes using American innovation and ingredients. Recipes and techniques were to be shared among us, but never outside the family--until now. Cooking with My Sisters brings you into our family kitchen. Here are our recipes and our stories. Buon appetito! -From the Introduction by Adriana Trigiani Excerpted from Cooking with My Sisters: One Hundred Years of Family Recipes, from Bari to Big Stone Gap by Mary Trigiani, Lucia Anna Trigiani, Antonia Trigiani, Francesca Trigiani, Adriana Trigiani All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
