NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Discover the Italian approach to healthful eating—where nothing is off the menu—with 100 delicious, superfood-packed recipes from New York Times bestselling author Giada De Laurentiis.
From the day Giada De Laurentiis started cooking professionally, her fundamental formula for making meals memorable has not changed: Good Cooking = Technique + Ingredients + Ambience. This same formula is the key to good health when you choose ingredients that promote wellness, cook them simply, and eat them joyfully. In her skillful hands, a pantry of Italian superfoods is the starting point to better health and longevity.
Super-Italian helps you stock your shelves with healthy Italian superfoods and create meals that are nutritionally dense, supportive of health, and still downright craveable. The superfoods featured and incorporated into every recipe are:
Olives + olive oil: Umbrian Chicken Stew with Green Olives, Kale Salsa Verde, and Grilled Swordfish with Olive Bagna Cauda
Beans + Legumes: Artichoke Dip with White Beans, Crunchy Roasted Butter Beans, and Creamy Cannellini Beans
Cruciferous vegetables: Winter Beans and Greens Soup, Orecchiette with Almond Pesto and Broccoli Rabe, and Green Gazpacho
Small fish: Caesar Aioli, Pasta Assassina, and Anchovy Pasta with Walnuts
Vinegar: Balsamic Chocolate Truffles, Grilled Endive Salad with Citrus and Pancetta, and Filet Mignon with Gorgonzola and Balsamic
Tomatoes: Sicilian Pesto, Tomatoes Gratinata, and Calabrian Pomodoro
By using carbs and fats mindfully and amplifying vegetables, lean proteins, and flavor-boosting superfoods at every meal, Giada shows how easy it is to eat like an Italian. With 100 stunning photographs of finished meals and their superfood components, Giada teaches us that when you start with truly excellent, minimally processed ingredients, simply prepared, you can have your pasta and eat it too!

      Destined to be a favorite, de Laurentiis' eleventh cookbook walks the tightrope between indulgent and healthy in a great way. The 100-plus dishes make the case for using authentic ingredients (no fake ricotta), not wasting leftovers, incorporating textures and condiments, and recognizing that salad can be king in a balanced diet. Moderation in everything is de Laurentiis' mantra as she lays out the well-known factors of healthy living, including sleep, exercise, and even the genetic factor. If all that's old hat, skip the beginning and plunge into the recipes, divided into the usual categories: starters (Caesar aioli), cocktails and apps (crunchy roasted butter beans), soups and main-course salads (green gazpacho), pasta (layerless sheet pan lasagna), poultry and meat (chicken piccata meatballs), fish and shellfish (cioppino), meatless mains (polenta with braised mushrooms), sides (crispy smashed veggies with parmesan), and of course, dolce (cannoli rice pudding). The author's commentary at the beginning of chapters and recipes is chatty, personal, and filled with good cooking advice. This title sets up great expectations--and fulfills them.
