Query: A complement for the good cook

This is a translation of a classic cookbook, first published in Italy in 1950. It is absolutely comprehensive, and is the Italians' Fannie Farmer Cookbook--all basic, well-tested recipes, from soup to nuts. Don't expect to be led by the hand on this one. The instructions assume that you are not a novice in the kitchen, and that you know certain basic techniques, such as slowly pouring the corn meal while making the polenta, etc.I would not have this as my only Italian cookbook, and I am a fairly ambitious cook. Other books that I find indispensable are Marcella Hazan's Classic Italian cooking, and its sequel, More CIC. Also excellent is Lynn Kasper's The Splendid Table.The Silver Spoon is a good rounding out to your other basic Italian cookbooks, and makes a terrific gift.
