The recipes in this cookbook are wonderful traditional renditions of some of the most delicious foods we ate and enjoyed while growing up in the big city. These recipes have been used and continue to be used daily in our family. Many recipes are traditional to most Italian families. Today some of these old recipes of what were once considered to be "peasant food" are found on menus in some five star Italian restaurants. That's the way it is and that's the way it was!
