Marcella

 The beloved teacher and bestselling cookbook author Marcella Hazan talks about how she went from a little girl growing up in Emilia-Romagna to becoming America's godmother of Italian cooking.  Raised in Cesenatico, a quiet fishing town on the northern Adriatic Sea, she eventually had her own cooking schools in New York, Bologna, and Venice and taught students from around the world.  She'd write bestselling and award-winning cookbooks collect invitations to cook at top restaurants, and have thousands of loyal students and readers.  When Marcella met the love of her life, Victor, they married and moved to New York City.  She knew not a word of English or what's more surprising a single recipe. 

Samin Nosrat is an American chef, TV host and food writer. She is a regular food columnist for The New York Times Magazine and has a Netflix docu-series based on her cookbook, Salt Fat Acid Heat.

Born in 1924 in Italy, she later moved in New York where she founded a cooking school specialized in traditional Italian cooking. She published her first cooking book, The Classic Italian Cook Book, in 1973. 

Marcella Hazan’s The Essentials of Italian Cooking is a culinary bible for anyone looking to master the art of Italian cooking, bringing together Hazan’s most beloved books— The Classic Italian Cook Book and More Classic Italian Cooking —in a single volume, updated and expanded with fifty new recipes.  Designed as a basic manual for cooks of all levels of expertise—from beginners to accomplished professionals—it offers both an accessible and comprehensive guide to techniques and ingredients and a collection of the most delicious recipes from the Italian repertoire.  As home cooks who have used Hazan’s classic books for years (and whose copies are now splattered and worn) know, there is no one more gifted at teaching us just what we need to know about the taste and texture of a dish and how to achieve it. 

Mark Bittman is an American food journalist, author, and former columnist for The New York Times. Currently, he is a fellow at the Union of Concerned Scientists.
