With homespun charm, Rose's Table unveils the secrets to many classic Sicilian and southern Italian recipes, from Testa di Turc, (a savory calzone) to Italian cheesecake. Find out the key ingredients of Sanna Sauce (the key staple of Sunday Dinner), how to cook an artichoke, the secrets of tender calamari, and the Sicilian version of cheesecake.Rose's Table provides more than recipes: included in the book are memories and tributes from friends and family that paint a classic portrait of The American Dream. Coming from humble beginnings, Ralph and Rose Sanna moved from the Lower East Side of Manhattan to Queens, and finally to Pleasantville, New York (a suburb as nice as it sounds) where they raised their family. Through old-fashioned hard work and an unfaltering commitment to their children, they created a life rich in values if not wealth. "Family is the most important thing you've got" is the Sanna motto that is oft-repeated, and anyone who comes in contact with Ralph and Rose experiences their natural instinct to share what they have with those they love.Come to Rose's Table, where you'll find the ultimate in comfort food.
