Pasta has appeared on Asian and Mediterranean tables for centuries, and yet its qualities of convenience and lightness and its associations with healthy eating make it popular with cooks everywhere-today. This series of single-subject cookbooks provides a step-by-step guide to easy cooking. Over 60 recipes, each shown in full colour provide a varied and versatile range of pasta dishes, ranging from simple springtime carbonara to salmon lasagne with roasted pepper sauce. Full-colour photographs illustrate each stage of preparation in these tried and tested recipes, so that the reader can see each step at a glance. Colour coded chapters help to find essential information in an instant, and include tips, hints, nutritional analysis and a useful glossary of ingredients too. The book has been compiled with the editors of "Better Homes and Garden" magazine.
