Buon appetite!’ – Jamie Oliver Whatever your ability in the kitchen, pasta is often a staple mid-week supper. This book will help to re-vamp your repertoire. It’s full of delicious, simple, seasonal recipes such as: – Wild Rocket & Pecorino Orecchiette – Summer Vegetable Cappellacci – Autumnal Wild Mushroom Tagliatelle – Wintery Game Ragu – Gennaro’s take on classic favourites such as Carbonara and Bolognese. If you really want to be adventurous, there is always the option to learn about making pasta from scratch, but the recipes are equally tasty with dried pasta. Welcome to Gennaro Contaldo’s fantastic seasonal pasta book. I’m sure most of you know Gennaro already – he’s one of the most illustrious, talented and flamboyant Italian cooks on the planet. He was my first boss when I moved to London and the first person to show me how to cook Italian food in a truly authentic way – to be honest, he’s totally shaped the last 20 years of my career. He’s my best friend, my mentor, and we’ve enjoyed cooking together all over the world ever since. This little book is the fourth in a collection of no-nonsense, beautiful cookbooks, inspired by the incredible cooks, chefs and artisans on my Food Tube channel. If you don’t know the channel already, hunt us out on YouTube, where myself and a bunch of super-talented people – including Gennaro of course – are uploading exclusive videos every week, with plenty of clever tips, tricks and methods that’ll help transform your cooking. When I first started this series of books, my ambition was to launch new talent, but with Gennaro, this isn’t quite the case – he’s already published many successful books and broadcast great TV shows. But nevertheless, with just a couple of Food Tube years under his belt, he is new to the digital world. His talent and passion had never been in question, but I wondered if he could smash it on this new online platform (before he came on board, I don’t think he even knew what YouTube was!). And the answer is a massive resounding yes! Gennaro’s energy and enthusiasm on camera – showing us how to cook incredible Italian food – has inspired the Food Tube community in a big way, he really is second to none. Want to master pasta?
