In Parmigiano!, seasoned cookbook author and cooking teacher Pamela Sheldon Johns takes you to the heartland of Italy. Emilia-Romagna, the picturesque region "bounded by rivers and mountains, " where Parmigiano-Reggiano has been made for centuries. She traces the history of the cheese and describes the traditional method - at once an art and a science - by which it is made. Parmigiano-Reggiano finds its way into fifty simple and enticing appetizers, salads, pasta dishes, entrees, breads, and even desserts, enhancing old favorites, such as Eggplant Parmigiano, as well as updated dishes, such as Radicchio Caesar Salad, Wild Mushroom Lasagne, and Caramelized Pears with Parmigiano-Reggiano Wedges.
