Description: In Cooking and Canning with Mamma D'Amato, Mamma shares for the first time the recipes that have thrilled her family for generations. This wonderfully warm, intimate cookbook reveals the secrets of Mamma D'Amato's Italian American kitchen, and harks back to a time when families gathered in the kitchen to talk and tell stories and eat good food. Now Mamma reveals not only her family recipes for everything from veal rollatini to panzarotta (a favorite among the great-grandchildren), but also the secret behind her famous red sauce - fresh red tomatoes canned the Mamma D'Amato way. Canning is a thrifty, satisfying alternative to processed foods, says Mamma, who not only shares her easy technique for canning tomatoes but brings together a tempting collection of recipes from cooks around the country who are passionate about canning. They have contributed their favorite recipes for such treats as spiced peach preserves, bread and butter pickles, apple herb jelly, and a wide variety of canned vegetables.
