Attention all Italian Cookbook Lovers! (janie- that be you, darlin'! )

I just finished reading "Two Meatballs in an Italian Kitchen" and literally an hour after I closed to book- "Italy: The Beautiful Cookbook" arrived! Janie- I got these both for mere pennies apiece- and you too would love them both, dear!

Can anyone recommend their favortie extra-large coffee-table cookbook that's loaded w/ beautiful photos? These are my FAV kind and I'd like to get a couple used copies ordered. Ideas, anyone?

I have one called 'Culinaria France'. It was originally published in Germany, then later translated to English. It's part of a "Culinaria" series, and includes Spain, Italy, Germany, etc.

It's broken into the regions of France and shows beautiful photos of the fields, the foods, the wines, and the people raising and cooking them. There really aren't recipes, just stories and photos about the foods and their pairings.

Williams Sonoma has a series similar, but not as large (not really coffee-table sized). They have many different titles/locales. It's called Foods of the World, and includes Paris, London, Rome, Barcelona, etc.

Favorite cookbook is: Dick Logues - 500 Low Sodium Recipes. Maybe because it is one of my newest. Ordered Bobbie Mostyns - Low Salt Favorites but was very disappointed. I've made some of Logues recipes that bombed out but at least he has some sort of recipe for just about everything.

Wow, janie! I saved this to my favs... I might have to order this big-boy too! Looks like it has amazing potential- visually, at least!
