In Your Pasta Sucks, Matteo Lane, famous comedian has written a beautiful book to assist readers in cooking pasta and making other Italian dishes. He explained his relationship with pasta and how it’s been his best relationship. It’s always available in your kitchen and it won’t lie or ghost you. In the book, he shared how he loves to laugh and make jokes. He takes his pasta making very seriously though. He shared how he ate pasta at least three times a week growing up and his love has only deepened with time. He touched on his grandfather and how he had a secret family and he gave his other kids the same name where he wouldn’t accidently mess up. In the book, he enclosed key helpful items to keep on hand at all times. These are basil, cheese of all kinds, guanciale, pancetta, olive oil, salt, just to name a few. He also enlightened how to make pasta water and how this is key to salty water and makes the dish taste even better. He explored how to buy pasta, and the different shapes, and how to cook pasta. Some of the recipes in this book was: lasagna, Kate’s meatballs, penne alla vodka, two mac and cheeses, Cherie’s struffoli, fettuccine alfredo, and countless others.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is seeking a new good Italian book. I really enjoyed the color pictures of the food and his personal photos throughout the book. I also thought it was cool that he added a personal story before a lot of the recipes and it helped readers to get a glimpse into his family. I liked how he did the measurements in grams and cups, lbs, and other standard measures. This is a beautiful cookbook with high quality photos that readers will enjoy.
