Mother Sauce Book
From home cook and author Lucinda Scala Quinn, a cookbook containing 100 iconic and beloved Italian-American recipes from the last century.
Today, we celebrate "Nonna’s cooking" as a staple of the American table. Yet the true architects—the mothers who arrived at the turn of the century—are rarely credited. Bringing only their intuition and heritage, these women crafted a new cuisine amidst the struggle of a new country.
While the "Red Sauce" joints were monetized by men, the soul of the food remained in the hands of the mammas. Mother Sauce finally brings their stories, and 100 of their iconic recipes, back to the center of the kitchen.
