Panini, Bruschetta, Crostini

by Viana Laplace

Panini, Bruschetta, Crostini Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Best-selling author Viana La Place explores three variations on the theme of bread in this collection of 75 recipes: panini, Italian-style sandwiches; bruschetta, rustic open-faced sandwich with toppings; and crostini, sophisticated versions of bruschetta. Paninis are great for every meal, plus make simple but sophisticated fare for any casual entertaining occasion. Recipes follow Italian simplicity and freshness by pairing just a few major ingredients in each sandwich such as mozzarella and prosciutto and summer tomatoes with herbs. Even chocoholics will rejoice in a bittersweet chocolate panino. Complete with four-color photography throughout, Panini Bruschetta Crostini is an essential cookbook for everyone who loves Italian food.

Review:

"[A] fun, appealing, and mouth-watering collection of sandwiches and both simple and elegant bruschetta and crostini, the Italian open-faced toasts and canapes." Library Journal

Review:

"Inventive, imaginative, and, yes, charming." Booklist

Synopsis:

More than seventy-five easy-to-follow recipes for Italian-style sandwiches — including panini, bruschetta, and crostini — emphasize the use of fresh ingredients to maximize flavor, in a tasty illustrated cookbook. Reprint.

Synopsis:

Move over pasta and pizza, here come panini, bruschetta and crostini--the world of sandwiches, Italian style! This book include recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, antipasti, party foods, and delicious desserts and indulgences for any time of the day. Color photos.
