For distinctive tastes
Review by Liz on 06/10/21 review stating For distinctive tastes
Lydia is very entertaining and knows her cooking. However, her recipes are not for my taste. The recipes had ingredients that I did not find appealing for my taste in Italian food, such as tuna in pasta.

Very Inspiring
Review by Sis on 07/17/20 review stating Very Inspiring
I am new to watching the PBS and Lidias show has become one of the best...her show has inspired me to try my hand at a new way of cooking. I enjoy the idea that she educates you on some of the differences in the items, so if you are new to clams, mustards,rices, etc. you know which one will work best and what the differences may be. I am so excited about trying out some of the dishes from the cook book that i purchased at the same time...Awesome Lidia and Thank you for bringing a bit of Italy into my home :)

Cooking to make your mouth water.
Review by Micke C. on 07/17/20 review stating Cooking to make your mouth water.
This is my 2nd DVD of this great chef and both offer easy to follow recipes for delicious Italian food. She doesnt rush through anything but never wastes time, either. Its the next best thing to having a cooking class with this wonderful, inspiring woman. Plus there is some beautiful photography included for good measure.
