Very easy to understand （and， hopefully， easy to make） recipes， which sound like they'd taste good。 A good balance of personal details/story， along with recipes， and photos。 I will definitely been trying some of these out。 Very easy to understand （and， hopefully， easy to make） recipes， which sound like they'd taste good。 A good balance of personal details/story， along with recipes， and photos。 I will definitely been trying some of these out。 。。。more

It’s rare to find a cookbook that does NOT require $400 worth of ingredients for every recipe and $5，000 worth of equipment， even rarer to find a celebrity cookbook that does the same。 Aside from a few of the meatier products， everything in this cookbook can be found at Ye Old Walmart。 The Tuccis have filled their cookbook with complex-sounding but actually quite simple recipes that anyone could pull off。 Favorite recipe is the spaghetti vongole， the recipe that I would never make （but would lov It’s rare to find a cookbook that does NOT require $400 worth of ingredients for every recipe and $5，000 worth of equipment， even rarer to find a celebrity cookbook that does the same。 Aside from a few of the meatier products， everything in this cookbook can be found at Ye Old Walmart。 The Tuccis have filled their cookbook with complex-sounding but actually quite simple recipes that anyone could pull off。 Favorite recipe is the spaghetti vongole， the recipe that I would never make （but would love to…） is the rabbit one 。。。more

We're watching and loving his "Searching for Italy" TV series and wishing he'd call and ask us to join him。 Since that isn't likely to happen， we settled for reading his cookbooks （no calories） and cooking some of his recipes （lots of calories。） Besides increasing our waistlines， Stanley makes us long to return to Italy。 We're watching and loving his "Searching for Italy" TV series and wishing he'd call and ask us to join him。 Since that isn't likely to happen， we settled for reading his cookbooks （no calories） and cooking some of his recipes （lots of calories。） Besides increasing our waistlines， Stanley makes us long to return to Italy。 。。。more

If I can't have Jacques narrate my life， then I'll take Stanley。 Just so long as he also makes me cocktails。 Great recipes， including some given to him by family and friends like Tony Shalub。 Also amazing photography。 If I can't have Jacques narrate my life， then I'll take Stanley。 Just so long as he also makes me cocktails。 Great recipes， including some given to him by family and friends like Tony Shalub。 Also amazing photography。 。。。more

Some cookbooks are beautiful to look at but the recipes aren't very good。 Some cookbooks have good recipes but the book is unattractive。 This cookbook is both beautiful to look at and contains good recipes。 The personal notes bring the recipes to life and are short enough that you actually want to read them。 Some cookbooks are beautiful to look at but the recipes aren't very good。 Some cookbooks have good recipes but the book is unattractive。 This cookbook is both beautiful to look at and contains good recipes。 The personal notes bring the recipes to life and are short enough that you actually want to read them。 。。。more

What can I say？ Love to watch Stanley Tucci in any film！ He adds the pizazz and depth to make any scene resonant perfectly！So he can cook delicious food too？ And make it mouth watering to read about？ Well I say he has a happy family and probably loads of friends eager to come to Stanley’s for supper！Inspiring recipes！ Great Stanley T。 personality plus！

We enjoy cooking from his book - the recipes are simple to follow， anyone can make these。 I’m a huge Tucci fan and can’t wait to try out his other books。

Wasn't as awesome as his other cookbook but my fangirl heart melted bit by bit。 I love Stanley and his fam， this book represents something great that should not be undervalued: that families can evolve and the fact that someone we love passed away does not mean we should forget her。 Wasn't as awesome as his other cookbook but my fangirl heart melted bit by bit。 I love Stanley and his fam， this book represents something great that should not be undervalued: that families can evolve and the fact that someone we love passed away does not mean we should forget her。 。。。more

I picked up this cookbook from the library because during the COVID-19 shelter-in-place， I've been enjoying Mr。 Tucci's Instagram cooking and cocktail lessons。 This cookbook provides a well-rounded variety of recipes。 I have tried only one and was thoroughly disappointed。 The "Blondie" recipe is more like a brown butter cake than a blonde brownie。 Based on that I have chosen not to try any of the other recipes。For more reading recommendations， visit Book Junkie Reviews at www。abookjunkiereviews。 I picked up this cookbook from the library because during the COVID-19 shelter-in-place， I've been enjoying Mr。 Tucci's Instagram cooking and cocktail lessons。 This cookbook provides a well-rounded variety of recipes。 I have tried only one and was thoroughly disappointed。 The "Blondie" recipe is more like a brown butter cake than a blonde brownie。 Based on that I have chosen not to try any of the other recipes。For more reading recommendations， visit Book Junkie Reviews at www。abookjunkiereviews。wordpress。com 。。。more

Yum， some of these are above my abilities， but I can see myself actually making 5 or 6 of them。 Can't wait！ Love the personal family stories throughout。 Yum， some of these are above my abilities， but I can see myself actually making 5 or 6 of them。 Can't wait！ Love the personal family stories throughout。 。。。more

As I have stated before I love a cookbook where the authors voice comes through and this book definitely has that。 There are plenty of comments and stories so you can feel like Mr。 Tucci is right there in the kitchen with you。 The recipes look delicious and not very complex。 Looks like there will be lots to add to the repertoire here。

The basics of Italian cooking perfectly presented & described！Easy to follow or adapt recipes explained with mouthwatering food photography and warm family stories。 It’s not revolutionary but it’s packed with staples and tips。

What is there to say？ It's Tucci baby。 I am absolutely absorbed by the thought of Stanley Tucci， John Krasinski， and the Blunt sisters having dinner parties featuring recipes from this book。 What is there to say？ It's Tucci baby。 I am absolutely absorbed by the thought of Stanley Tucci， John Krasinski， and the Blunt sisters having dinner parties featuring recipes from this book。 。。。more

I am not a fan of cookbooks， actually I strongly dislike them。 The authors often include recipes that are too long， too cumbersome， completely unrealistic for 'normal' people。。 and with a list of ingredients that would put to shame a Michelin restaurant。。For this reason when I stumbled into this book written by Stanley Tucci and his wife Felicity Blunt I just loved。。 simple， practical recipes， with ingredients that we can easily find in our kitchen， beautiful photos， just the right amount of wor I am not a fan of cookbooks， actually I strongly dislike them。 The authors often include recipes that are too long， too cumbersome， completely unrealistic for 'normal' people。。 and with a list of ingredients that would put to shame a Michelin restaurant。。For this reason when I stumbled into this book written by Stanley Tucci and his wife Felicity Blunt I just loved。。 simple， practical recipes， with ingredients that we can easily find in our kitchen， beautiful photos， just the right amount of words and picture。 Bravo to both of them！ 。。。more

I thought this was a very sweet Cookbook。 I'm a Tucci fan， so anything he does can do no wrong。Many of the recipes here were out of the ordinary， and you could probably find much of this in another cookbook。 The nice bits for me were the comments and the voice of Mr。 Tucci that made it worth reading。 I think also the meal and food sensibilities put into the book made it worthwhile。 I thought this was a very sweet Cookbook。 I'm a Tucci fan， so anything he does can do no wrong。Many of the recipes here were out of the ordinary， and you could probably find much of this in another cookbook。 The nice bits for me were the comments and the voice of Mr。 Tucci that made it worth reading。 I think also the meal and food sensibilities put into the book made it worthwhile。 。。。more

Is there anything this gorgeous man cannot do？I borrowed it for the Tucci， but the recipes are really straight forward and are delicious dishes。 And the book is full of gorgeous photos of both the food and the Tucci family。

I love Stanley Tucci！ Whether he’s a hypersensitive tango dancer in Shall We Dance？， the husband of a beloved cooking icon in Julie and Julia， the mischievous Puck in A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream， or any one of the scores of other roles he’s had， I think he’s brilliant。So I was bound to love his new cookbook， written with his wife Felicity Blunt （sister of actress Emily Blunt）。 And I did！Tucci combines his love of classic French food （which I was enjoying for the first time that month） with the bo I love Stanley Tucci！ Whether he’s a hypersensitive tango dancer in Shall We Dance？， the husband of a beloved cooking icon in Julie and Julia， the mischievous Puck in A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream， or any one of the scores of other roles he’s had， I think he’s brilliant。So I was bound to love his new cookbook， written with his wife Felicity Blunt （sister of actress Emily Blunt）。 And I did！Tucci combines his love of classic French food （which I was enjoying for the first time that month） with the bounty of food available in North America （especially in larger cities） to present a fresh take on the food that has enchanted generations of eaters。4 stars 。。。more

Delightful and authentic， Tucci provides wonderful recipes as well as happy glimpses into his private life。 I highly recommend this book for "foodies"。 Delightful and authentic， Tucci provides wonderful recipes as well as happy glimpses into his private life。 I highly recommend this book for "foodies"。 。。。more

Pretentious but Beautifully Illustrated with Engaging StoriesMy thoughts are a little conflicted about this cookbook。 On one hand， it is beautifully illustrated， with helpful step-by-step photos for some of the recipes。 It also includes some very nice recipes from celebrity friends。 On the other hand， most of the recipes include ingredients that I never have on hand， would probably never purchase and have no way to obtain， including some specific Italian ingredients such as trofiette – I had to Pretentious but Beautifully Illustrated with Engaging StoriesMy thoughts are a little conflicted about this cookbook。 On one hand， it is beautifully illustrated， with helpful step-by-step photos for some of the recipes。 It also includes some very nice recipes from celebrity friends。 On the other hand， most of the recipes include ingredients that I never have on hand， would probably never purchase and have no way to obtain， including some specific Italian ingredients such as trofiette – I had to look this one up to find out it’s an Italian pasta。 For the recipes I found for which I have ingredients， these are extremely simple recipes that most cooks already know by heart。 I’ll have to say， my favorite part of the entire cookbook was the stories。 Mr。 Tucci has a wonderful way of expressing himself as he interweaves stories into each recipe’s introduction。I received my advanced reading copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Did you know you can put oregano on steak？ Which is great because I have an oregano plant that literally will not die。 （I say that now， check in with me again next spring。） I'm waiting to pay a visit to a local farm to test them out， but I have it from the horse's mouth that the Sausage Rolls are easy。 Did you know you can put oregano on steak？ Which is great because I have an oregano plant that literally will not die。 （I say that now， check in with me again next spring。） I'm waiting to pay a visit to a local farm to test them out， but I have it from the horse's mouth that the Sausage Rolls are easy。 。。。more

Picked it up at the library for the mere reason there's a lovely photo of Stanley on the cover。 Then I read it and really enjoyed it。 The anecdotes were fun and not pretentious。 The recipes vary from very simple to very complicated。 Photos are terrific。I take off a star because some of the anecdotes contain phrases along the lines of "Felicity is addicted to this salad" or the like。 I cannot stand it when people throw around the word "addicted" casually。 Picked it up at the library for the mere reason there's a lovely photo of Stanley on the cover。 Then I read it and really enjoyed it。 The anecdotes were fun and not pretentious。 The recipes vary from very simple to very complicated。 Photos are terrific。I take off a star because some of the anecdotes contain phrases along the lines of "Felicity is addicted to this salad" or the like。 I cannot stand it when people throw around the word "addicted" casually。 。。。more
