Pasta Classica: 125 Authentic Italian Recipes

Why cook if you don't have to? This brilliant new approach to pasta, written by best-selling cookbook author Joie Warner, offers 75 deliciously easy pasta sauces -- all ready in minutes without turning on a burner. These no-cook sauces are whipped up while the pasta water boils, and heated when they mingle with the linguine. Ferruccine, or other steaming hot pasta. Using only a handful of vibrantly flavorful ingredients such as olives, citrus, tomatoes, capers, goat cheese, and succulent herbs, Joie Warner shows how to turn out fantastic dishes in a matter of minutes -- no joke, no catch, we promise! Imagine such sauces as savory Putranesca, Asian-Style Sesame with Roasted Red Peppers, Creamy Tomato and Gorgonzola, or Green Pea and Prosciutto made from scratch and ready to use by the time the spaghetti is al dente. This is the book we've all been waiting for -- finally, a fresh take on pasta!
