About this title

From the Inside Flap:

First issued in 1948, when soulless minute steaks and quick casseroles were becoming the norm, The Unprejudiced Palate inspired a seismic culinary shift in how America eats. Written by a food-loving immigrant from Tuscany, this memoir-cum-cookbook articulates the Italian American vision of the good life: a backyard garden, a well-cooked meal shared with family and friends, and a passion for ingredients and cooking that nourish the body and the soul.

From the Back Cover:

Part memoir, part exhortation, part cookbook, and seasoned with warm humor, The Unprejudiced Palate is the vibrant exposition of the place of food and wine in "the good life." Pellegrini brings to this utterly charming book his immigrant Italian perspective and unfettered culinary attitudes. He has created a delicious read for anyone interested in good food, wine, and cooking. (6 X 9, 256 pages)
