Big Mamma Group releases new cookbook: “Italian Recipes in 30 Minutes, Shower Time Included”
The Big Mamma Group, known for its vibrant Italian eateries across London, has recently released its latest cookbook, Italian Recipes in 30 Minutes, Shower Time Included, on the 11th of April, 2024. This marks the group’s second venture into English-language cookbooks, following the success of Cucina Popolare in 2019. The new publication promises over 100 quick and easy recipes that embody the spirit of Italian gastronomy, all designed to fit within a busy lifestyle, including a whimsical allowance for a cheeky shower.
Crafted by the chefs behind popular restaurants such as Gloria, Circolo Popolare, and Ave Mario, the 320-page cookbook aims to bring the flair and flavour of Italian cuisine to home kitchens with minimal fuss. Highlights from the book include a luxurious deep-fried burrata aptly named Burratina Turner, a traditional Spaghetti con le Vongole enhanced with Sardinian bottarga, and a decadent Jacquemousse chocolate mousse for those craving something sweet. Whether it’s a last-minute show-up of friends or the arrival of the whole family right for the holiday season, the volume contains secrets and know-hows for the preparation of quick and delicious dishes.
Beyond recipes, the book is peppered with anecdotes, tips, and tricks from members of the Big Mamma team, offering insights into Italian wine, selecting the best Parmigiano Reggiano, a guide to buying dried pasta, and even the rules for creating the ultimate carbonara. Published by White Lion Publishing, Italian Recipes in 30 Minutes, Shower Time Included is not only a cookbook but a vibrant celebration of the culture, promising to make every reader a star in their own kitchen.
With its mix of practicality, fun, and the promise of an authentic Italian culinary experience in half an hour, the Big Mamma Group’s latest offering is poised to become a must-have for food enthusiasts and busy home cooks alike.
