Nonna's House
Soon to be a Netflix film! Discover the heart and soul of Italian tradition with this exquisite collection filled with mouthwatering recipes and vibrant tales from the iconic grandmothers of Enoteca Maria--a one-of-a-kind Italian restaurant where a rotating roster of nonnas take center stage as master chefs. "If you have a choice between a three-star Michelin chef's and Grandma's, where are you going to eat?" asks Jody Scaravella, owner of Enoteca Maria on Staten Island. "Well, I'm going to Grandma's. I'm going to the source." At Enoteca Maria, the chefs are nonne, or Italian grandmothers, whose culinary expertise comes from years of cooking for their families. Now, they invoke the food wisdom, artisanal methods, and recipes--handed down for generations--that are indigenous to their regions of Italy. Each nonna/chef creates her menu from whatever looks inspiring in her pantry--spontaneously, the way family meals evolve. Here are the recipes and stories from the kitchen at Enoteca Maria, a beautiful compendium of food and nostalgia, capturing flavors from the heart of Italy. Nonna's House is much more than just a cookbook; it's a journey into the kitchens of eight Italian grandmothers who bring their regional specialties to life. From the savory to the sweet, the recipes include unique dishes like cod with cauliflower, fig and nut crostata, eggplant with chocolate, and fried chickpea flour with fennel. Classic favorites such as gnocchi, pasta, risotto, and polenta are also featured, ensuring there's something for every palate. The story behind Enoteca Maria is as heartwarming as the dishes themselves. Jody Scaravella's vision of a restaurant staffed by Italian grandmothers began with a simple ad in a Staten Island newspaper. The result is a beloved dining spot that is becoming a cultural phenomenon. The book's beautiful, four-color design, complete with full-color photographs, makes it a perfect gift for anyone who cherishes authentic Italian cuisine and the stories that come with it.
Indian Kitchens
A vivid, contemporary portrait of a country through its food and the ordinary, extraordinary, people who make it. In this joyful new book, Roopa Gulati travels through India and celebrates the wonderfully varied food that makes up a nation, making pitstops at the homes of the people who cook it every day. You'll be taken to a remote kitchen in Gujarat, with shelves stacked high with pickle jars, where the air is heady with the scent of homegrown curry leaves and the nutty aroma of rotlas imbued with woody smoke from the open fire; to the old French Quarter of Pondicherry, where lunch is served on a banana leaf picked fresh from the garden; and to Delhi for a family reunion, a feast culminating in mouth-watering desserts, and a cooking lesson. Roopa's writing, full of warmth and joy, brings these people and places to life, and her recipes bring them to our kitchens. From dals to masalas, and quick and easy suppers to feasts for a crowd, the easy- to-follow recipes are bursting with authentic flavors using ingredients found in your local supermarket. Recipes include eggplant pakoras with onion and tamarind relish, potato and paneer tikki, corn bhajis, Tandoori sea bass, home- style Punjabi chicken curry, Kashmiri lamb with saffron, cardamom and red chiles, cumin potatoes, Bengali-style butternut squash with tamarind and jaggery, channa dal with spinach, black-eyed peas in garlic tomato masala, phirni with honey, orange, and saffron syrup, and pistachio and cardamom cookies. From the monsoon-washed backwaters of Kerala to the crowded markets of Mumbai, this celebration of regional cooking will bring the sights, sounds and flavors of India to your table.
Roti
Roti is perhaps one of India's most versatile, yet unassuming, dishes. Bake it on a griddle, stuff it with mashed potatoes, lather it in ghee or butter, pair it with curries and pickles, roast it, fry it, or bake it in a tandoor. It is made with many grains, but traditionally with wheat flour. It is no wonder then that Roti is integral to Indian and cuisines from other South Asian countries, such as Pakistan and Bangladesh and a popular accompaniment in most Asian cuisine restaurants. In Roti, author Anuradha Ravindranath introduces the reader to the different facets of this unprepossessing flatbread. She draws on her memories as a child, of her mother buying whole wheat grain at a market, of it drying on the rooftop of their Delhi home, of the trips to a nearby mill so that it is ground into fresh, warm flour, and the fluffy rotis fresh off the pan that was an enduring staple for lunches. In doing so, Anuradha Ravindranath skilfully weaves her memories of the flatbread with over 90 delicious recipes and turns the humble roti into a delightful, glamorous showstopper. Packed with photographs, the book will feature accompaniments to rotis by way of dips and pickles, as well as easy-to-follow tips in classic DK style.

French at Heart
This gorgeous cookbook about living well the French way comes from the founders of The Cook's Atelier, a cooking school in Burgundy, France Cooking is about more than just the food, and while French at Heart has more than 100 go-to recipes, it's a cookbook for anyone who wants to explore the little details and make our time around the table even more special. When mother and daughter duo and expats Marjorie Taylor and Kendall Smith Franchini moved to Beaune in Burgundy, France, to open their now incredibly popular cooking school The Cook's Atelier, they learned that choosing to appreciate tiny moments more mindfully, like they saw the French do, really opened their hearts. To them, being French at heart doesn't mean you have to speak French or live in France; it means slowing down enough to enjoy the little details of every day.

They are simple recipes, what Taylor and Smith Franchini often cook for their family after a long day, and reflect their take on familiar French dishes. There is plenty of advice from the heart on how to serve a memorable cheese or charcuterie board, curate a French-inspired pantry, start your own kitchen garden, or get the most out of your local farmers' market. Creating meaningful moments around meals and sharing them turns out to be quite contagious--and exactly why people love coming to see Taylor and Smith Franchini at their cooking school.
