One of my Favorite Books of Antipasti & Side Dishes

I refer to this wonderful book constantly. The pictures will make your mouth water. Every time I have it sitting out someone picks it up to browse. I'm not much of a writer, so I'm just going to tell you the recipes I turn to time and time again: Sausage & Mushroom Tart is gorgeous and yummy!; Polenta Toasts are a great alternative to baguette slices. The book suggests toppings or, make up your own; Polenta and Vegetable Mold uses mushrooms & artichokes (when hot tap mold on hard surface to get bubbles out). It's a great make ahead dish. Cut slices and broil or grill to serve. This is easy, has never failed to impress guests & would make a great vegetarian main dish; Sugar Snap Pea and Almond Salad with Mint & Orange is fast, easy & flavorful; Baked Whole Mushrooms with Parmigiano is killer for a mushroom lover. Wild mushrooms are a must. This is terrific with roasted meats/poultry; Roasted Peppers in 4 Variations. The combinations make a colorful and delicious antipasti or side dish. Try all or any of the following (sausage, anchovies, fresh mozzarella & basil, parsley & black olives). I like to add roasted or BBQ'd zucchini, eggplant and mushrooms).
