More About This Book

Overview

Since her debut on Food Network in 2002 with the hit program Everyday Italian, Giada De Laurentiis has been enticing Americans with her updated twists on Italian favorites. Her dedication to ease, healthfulness, and—above all else—flavor have won her a permanent place in the hearts of home cooks. In Giada at Home, she shares a personal look into how she cooks for those dearest to her, with simple recipes inspired by her television show of the same name.
 
Born in Italy, Giada was raised in Los Angeles by a gregarious Italian family. While her grandmother, aunt, and mother brought her up on generations-old recipes, Giada also became enamored with the bright and clean flavors of California’s abundant seasonal fruits and vegetables. Giada at Home presents recipes from both traditions, all with Giada’s signature style. She shares classic Italian recipes passed down through the years, like cheese-stuffed dates wrapped in salty prosciutto, creamy risotto with the earthy and deep flavors of mushrooms and gorgonzola, and lamb chops basted with honey and balsamic vinegar. New family favorites include grilled asparagus and melon, game hens roasted with citrus and herbs, and a sorbet made with pomegranate and mint, all bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors.
 
No meal would be complete without the company of family and Giada particularly enjoys bringing her loved ones together over meals. For the first time, she incorporates her go-to brunch recipes—what she cooks when setting up a feast on her back patio for everyone on weekend mornings—from Jade-approved Panini, with gooey mozzarella, luscious raspberries, and a sprinkling of brown sugar, to Todd’s favorite pancetta-studded waffles scented with cinnamon.
 
No matter which recipe you choose—classic or contemporary—Giada at Home makes gathering the favorite people in your life for fabulous weeknight meals and family celebrations delicious and easy.
 
 
GIADA DE LAURENTIIS is the Emmy-winning star of Food Network’s Everyday Italian, Giada's Weekend Getaways, and Giada at Home; a contributing correspondent for NBC’s Today; and the author of four New York Times bestselling cookbooks. She attended the Cordon Bleu in Paris and worked at Wolfgang Puck’s Spago restaurant in Los Angeles before starting her own catering company, GDL Foods. Born in Rome, she grew up in Los Angeles, where she now lives with her husband, Todd, and their daughter, Jade.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
The newest cookbook from De Laurentiis (after Giada's Kitchen: New Italian Favorites) straddles two continents with wonderful recipes from Italy and California. Chapters of this friendly and inviting book are titled by course, such as Appetizers and Desserts, as well as by ingredient and occasion (e.g., brunch). The author includes straightforward instructions for classic Italian fare, such as steak involtini; Chianti-marinated stew; pecorino and bean salad; and limoncello granita, as well as a selection of such modern dishes as grilled asparagus and melon salad; pea pesto crostini, and lemon hazelnut tiramisù. Chock-full of mouthwatering dishes for easy entertaining (Italian fried olives; whole wheat pita chips with mascarpone-chive dip; and vegetable parmesan), this appealing collection is supplemented with informative, short essays on ingredients including olive oil and dried and fresh herbs. (Apr.)
Library Journal
De Laurentiis, star of Food Network's Everyday Italian, shares recipes from Italy (where she was born) and California (where she was raised) that are perfect for family get-togethers. She originally combines Italian and American flavors. While most recipes are simple to prepare and written for all skill levels, advanced cooks will find a three-tier dessert. This is highly recommended and will be in demand. Library marketing.

Recipe:
Stuffed Baby Peppers
From Giada at Home
 
4 to 6 servings
 
My mother always loved to serve stuffed vegetables; she stuffed zucchini, potatoes, onions, and, of course, all kinds of peppers. It may have been her way of getting us to eat our vegetables, but we loved them so much we ate them right out of the fridge the next day. I’ve used pancetta in the filling, but this is an easy recipe to vary and you could certainly substitute ground beef, sausage – almost anything savory that you like. These taste better the longer they sit, so they make great leftovers.
 
Vegetable oil cooking spray
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 ounces thinly sliced pancetta, finely chopped
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup frozen petite peas, thawed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
24 (2- to 3-inch long) baby peppers
 
Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray. Set aside.
 
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta andcook, stirring frequently, until brown and crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pancetta and drain on paper towels. Add the onion to the pan and cook until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
 
In a medium bowl, combine the onion, pancetta, cheeses, and peas. Season with salt and pepper.
 
Using a paring knife, cut ½ inch from the stem end of each pepper. Remove the seeds and veins. Using a small dessert spoon, fill each pepper with the cheese mixture. Place the filled peppers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the peppers begin to soften and the cheese is warmed through. Cool for 10 minutes.
 
Arrange the peppers on a platter and serve.

    Disappointing

    Unlike her other cookbooks, this one was not worth the money. Too many pictures of her friends and family and not enough of how the actual food should look. The recipes were not too different or as tasty as those from her other books. Buy her other cookbooks, save your money and use the library to take this book out. I am extremely disappointed in this book, it just seemed thrown together. Even the printing of this book looks cheap-3 different fonts used for each recipe make it a visual nightmare. More care and effort should have gone into this cookbook. Perhaps it is time to move on to another chef, her ideas do not seem to original.

    Another favorite from Giada

    I have all of Giada's cookbooks. I had read a few unfavorable reviews but decided to buy the book and see what I thought. The stuffed peppers are to die for. Can be made a day ahead and baked the next day and eaten for days afterwards. They alone would justify the cookbook. Whwn I buy a new cookbook I cook exclusively from it for about a month . The recipes have been easy to follow and delicious and she gives added good information about different ingredients and techniques. I highly recommend the book.

    GIADA AT HOME IS A GUSTATORY DELIGHT

    Those who follow Giada De Laurentiis on her Emmy Award winning TV program (and there are jillions of you) know just how delicious, healthful, and beautifully presented her dishes are. Her four previous cookbooks have all topped bestseller lists, however, for this Giada fan GIADA AT HOME is something very special because not only are there a multitude of tasty recipes, but it is also a warm affectionate look at family, friends, and her adopted state of California.

    I cannot remember seeing a cook who took so much pleasure in the preparation of food - perhaps it is because she's preparing for those she loves. Whatever the case, the recipes included in this book are family recipes form Italy and California. Some are generations old recipes (identified by being set in orange type), while others are new family recipes (set in green type). Readers will find that Giada has been happily influenced by what she finds at her local farmer's market - beautiful seasonal fruits and vegetables. Thus, she prepares dishes that spotlight these flavors. Delightful offerings!

    GIADA AT HOME begins with Appetizers followed by Soups & Sandwiches, Pasta & Grains, Meat, Poultry & Fish, Vegetables & Salads, Desserts, and Brunch.

    Photographs of the dishes by Jonelle Weaver are so real that one is tempted to take a bite. Relaxed candid shots of family and friends allow readers glimpses of the happiness engendered when loved ones gather to share a meal.

    For this reader Brunch is one of my favorite chapters, especially as described: "In Italy weekends are all about the leisurely lunch, a meal that can start any time after one-thirty in the afternoon and might well stretch on into the early evening." It is the day's "main event."

    It's so much more than a main event, it's a dreamed of libation if it begins with Limoncello and Blueberry Cooler and includes Mozzarella, Raspberry, and Brown Sugar Panini plus a Strawberry and Rosemary Scone or two.

    Enjoy - I know you will!

    - Gail Cooke

    Terrific read

    I have all of Giada's books and I would list them as more than cookbooks. She interposes with stories and information about the recipes I.e: where they came from what she wanted from the recipe. I have found all her books to be "readable" as well as giving us some wonderful food. Most of them are easy and she gives great detail on the "how to", her books are great for the experienced cook and the begginer alike

    Great Book

    I'm a regular viewer of the show on Food Network, so it was nice to find the recipes I love all in one place. I frequently jot down recipes from the show and have used several, but having the book gives me even more opportunities to try Giada's simple, delicious recipes.

    Love the contemporary flair

    The pictures are great and the cookbook has a very feminine feel with bright pink being the hardback cover color. I love how each chapter tackles a specific type of food (brunch, appetizers, pasta & grains, soups & sandwiches, and much more). Giada also introduces each chapter by talkiing about the culture of Italian food and the intergration of her culture into her life here in California. Fantastic! My favorite of all her cookbooks.

    Healthier Recipes from Giada

    I love fresh mozzarella cheese as much as any other foodie but there is only so much fat and dairy that I can stand in dishes. I'm trying to keep my girlish figure, you see. When compared to her previous cookbooks, it's clear that the California, fresh food influence has done great things for ensuring that my special meals stay healthy for my family. And I couldn't be happier! So far, I have made the roast game hens recipe, with the suggested substitution of a whole chicken and sans the butter. Many of the other recipes are on my to-do list for this month.

    I am a Giada fan and enjoyed her other books. This one I found very few recipes I would even care to try. Not worth the money. Had I looked thru it before ordering it I would have passed on this one.

    Love Giada's Cookbooks

    My wife loves Giada's recipes and always looks into her books for inspiration. This book does not disappoint. I saw one of the recipes on TV and it looked easy enough so I made it and it came great. We highly recommend this book if you want to try interesting Italian recipes. We like to discover the variety of dishes can be found in Italian cuisine (not just pasta and cheese). Her recipes are not overly healthy because that is not her purpose; she cooks fantastically tasting Italian dishes. I have no idea how the lady stays so skinny! Great cookbook!

    Great pasta recipie

    So far I've only made one dish but it was amazing! My husband and I both loved the Rigatoni with Creamy Mushroom Sauce. It was truly wonderful, rich, and satisfying. If the rest of her recopies are as good as this you are in for a real treat!

    delicious cook book

    Giads's new cookbook is delicious!! I have already made two of the recipes and my family loved them. I like that she has the cook notes on the bottom of every recipe. It makes cooking that much easier. I enjoyed reading about her family and her families connection with food. I hope someday to cook with my daughter and we can start some family tradtions like Giada has with her family. I have her other cookbook and love that one too. I can't wait to try her brunch recipes. Giada said Jade loves her breakfast panini.

    The food in this book, has some deliciously creative ideas. The desserts section was especialy enticing. Desserts created with items you wouldn't think of in dessert actually give the dish a really nice punch. The only downfall to the book, is that I don't eat fish or seafood of any sort. There were quite a few dishes with seafood as the base. But, other than this there were a large variety of other dishes to tempt my palate. In my opinion the best section of the book was actually the brunch portion. Creative dishes and crazy combinations are the high point of this section. Just looking at some of the pictures will make your mouth water.
