"Enjoy pasta, one of the world's most popular foods, in all its myriad, versatile forms: noodles, ravioli, lasagne, soups and salads. You'll find recipes for fresh, homemade pasta, from Taglioni with Asparagus and Zucchini to Sage Squares with Sage and Shallot Butter, Spinach Ravioli with Summer Tomato Sauce to Cannelloni Primavera with Pepper Sauce, as well as dishes based on widely available dried pasta, including soups such as Chicken and Farfalle Vegetable Soup, salads ranging from Creamy Shell Salad with Lobster to Garlic Lover's Penne and Chicken Salad, sauced specialties including Spinach Spaghetti with Bolognese Sauce and Pasta Colis Carbonara and baked dishes such as Carmelized Onion and Pancetta Lasagne and Macaroni and Cheese with Bacon. In addition, pasta's close cousin, risotto, can be found as an appetizer, side dish or entree in each varied flavors as Fresh Herb and Parmesan Risotto, Suppli with Cheese and Porcini Mushrooms and Salmon Fillets on Zucchini Risotto.
These tempting dishes are among the more than 200 recipes gathered here in the Williams-Sonoma 'Complete Pasta Cookbook,' a complete compilation of recipes originally published in the 4-volume Williams-Sonoma Pasta Collection. Created by renowned cookbook authors and teachers Michele Anna Jordan, Joanne Weir and Kristine Kidd, these recipes showcase pasta and risotto in all their infinite variety. Each recipe is accompanied by a beautiful photograph that shows exactly how the finished dish should look, along with a wealth of helpful hints and tips.
More than just a collection of recipes, this book is a pasta information source. In the introductory pages, you'll find a comprehensive guide to planning meals around and serving pasta; making, cutting and shaping fresh pasta dough; selecting dried pasta; cooking perfect pasta every time; and preparing risotto. Colorful step-by-step and still-life photographs make the text come alive."

Summary: Easy directions, large pasta selections
Comment: I tend to associate Williams-Sonoma with snobbery, and was tentative about this book. However, the recipes are darn good and easy, nothing fru-fru. Making homemade is truly a snap, and now our family loves to make and eat it all the time. This book shows how to make all pasta shapes as well as pasta sauces, with every day ingredients.Highly recommend to anyone who loves pasta!
