In Her Kitchen: Stories and Recipes from Grandmas Around the World: A Cookbook

This book is absolutely beautiful, as much a coffee table book as a cookbook. The recipes are awesome too!!!

I received a copy of this book as a gift (thank you, Diletta) and now have purchased it as a gift to others. The photography is lovely and the recipes are cool. It’s a fantastic gift for those who collect cookbooks, love photography and enjoy cooking.

This cookbook is AMAZING!!! There are photos of the "grandmothers" with the raw ingredients and photos of the finished product. It's so nice to have a little bit of info about each of the women whose recipes are featured in the book; it gives you a sense of connection.The recipes were easy to follow and alternatives were offered for ingredients that may not be readily available to everyone. I read through the entire book as soon as I received it and am really looking forward to making some new and delicious recipes!!!The only thing I would suggest is to include recipes from different countries in any subsequent books.

Just went through EVERY photograph of this book. It is a gift for my culinary daughter. There are short bios of each grandmother. They are standing in their kitchens, proudly displaying the ingredients of a recipe. The full recipe is on the next pages after their photograph. Loved it! Excellent quality from this seller.

This is a beautiful book for your kitchen or coffee table. It has great stories from loving grandmothers across the world that show their love through cooking. I have not made any of the recipes in this book, but I love to sit and look at the beautiful women and their stories.

Outstanding book, quality photos, excellent presentation. I loved the stories, and might try the recipes, might not. More cultural than cookbook. We need more books like this.

This was a gift for our Nana and she was thrilled. Beautiful photographs and sweet recipes will make this a remembered gift!

It is a gorgeous book. The stories are wonderful and it gives you a homey feeling. However, I mistakenly purchased this book as an intro into foreign cuisine. The first (and only) recipe I tried was the ravioli and swiss chard. It went horribly wrong somehow, the dough for the ravioli was dry and crumbly so I stopped cooking and opted for take out instead. It seemed like a simple recipe even though it did call for three hours simmer time for the meat sauce. I'm usually a good cook but this was a disaster. It's a good coffee table book though.

Meraviglioso! Ideale per regalarlo alla propria mamma o nonna. 48 ricette direttamente da 48 nonne di tutto il mondo. :-)

Wonderful!

This is a lovely book. As Gabriele Galimberti travelled the world for a magazine project he visited someone's grandmother in each place, cooked with her, and took photos. This began as a way to reassure his own grandmother that he would not starve to death on his travels but became a beautiful book.Each grandmother has four pages; one shows her in her kitchen with the ingredients, the next a picture of the food, the third gives us a biography of the grandmother, and the fourth gives the recipe.I had a lot of fun trying to guess where each grandmother lived from the two photos before turning to the third page! And almost all of the recipes are things I could cook in my own kitchen, as doubtless will, as these are real women cooking for their families.

The best recipe book in my life! Love the background stories about the grannies and Gabriele Galimberti photographs are absolutely amazing! I love the idea of this book and so so so happy with it :o)

Great, the photographs are beautiful!!
