 Rating:  - all recipes need tweekingGood service on the delivery of the book. The book itself has nice ideas for sauces and simple pasta dishes. The one problem I have with the book is the pasta recipes, they all come up short on the moisture content within the recipes, and I'm not talking about a tablespoon of water , its more like a half of a cup or in the spatzle recipe a cup. So in each instance I had to play around with the moisture amount to get the desired pasta consistancy. Rating:  - Beautiful BookThis is the kind of book that you could leave on your coffee table and it would be an appealing read to many people. The book is bigger then I expected. (Of course I didn't even look at the dimensions. It's just bigger then the past 5-6 cookbooks that I have ordered.) The pictures are just beautiful. I enjoyed the history section and the pages upon pages of different pasta types. I love that this book has recipes for pasta AND for dishes that use the pasta. I can't wait to try a number of the recipes out. Rating: - Great for beginnersGreat book for all pasta lovers - especially ones who are still inexperienced. Interesting fact from pasta history are fantastic. Rating: - Great book for both beginners and expertsThis book has several basic recipes for a multitude of pasta recipes and types. For example, recipes for spaghetti, ravioli, gnocchi, etc. I used the recipe for ravioli and it turned out great. I loved the step-by-step pictures. It also contains a lot of pasta recipes, but many of them contain weird ingredients that not everyone may like, or aren't easily obtainable. Still, the basic recipes in this book make for a myriad of options if you just use your imagination, especially for the low price. However, I learned that making pasta from scratch isn't easy, and you need other pasta paraphernalia like pasta cutters or ravioli cutters, and a pasta roller (because rolling by hand takes a lot of work!), so be prepared!
