Title: The Great Italian Disappointment
Review: I found the book, "Great Italian Desserts", to be a tremendous disappointment.For the amount that it cost ($110) I expected nice paper and glossy color photos. Neither of which existed in the book.Though I am a chef by profession with over 30 years experience there was much lacking in explanation/directions in recipes that prevented a thorough understanding of the execution.It does not matter to me if Nick Malgieri is the greatest pastry chef on the face of this earth. The book lacked much, so much so that I have not even been tempted to make anything from its contents. It will probably end up just sitting on the kitchen shelf amongst some other disappointing recipe books.A big thumbs down and still crying over my $100+ .....
