More Classic Italian Cooking by Marcella Hazan (1978, Hardcover) Ethnic Italian The art of cooking never comes to a standstill. It is renewed each day, as we renew our lives. Marcella Hazan  A culinary icon, a beloved instructor, and a gracious host, Marcella Hazan (1924-2013) was the most well-respected expert on Italian cooking in American kitchens that our country has ever known. Like Julia Child was to French food, Marcella was a trendsetter. Born in Italy in 1924, she came to the United States as a young married faced with the task of cooking for herself and her husband for the first time in her life. Growing up in a household where everybody cooked for and around her, Marcella was suddenly a new cook in a new kitchen in 1950s New York City, a very different landscape than the pastoral one she knew as a girl in Italy. She began cooking via memory, recollection, and some old family recipes.  One by one, Marcella began to recreate the dishes of her home country, capturing the essence of Italian eating in her new city lifestyle.
