Recensione:

"'Macaroni' and 'cheese' are just two words. But in more than 75 creative, globe-girdling recipes, Stiavetti and McCord show all the delicious possibilities, including chocolate pasta with bucherondin goat cheese, Szechuan-style udon with Piave cheese, and a whole pumpkin stuffed with macaroni, fontina and Italian sausage."―Bill Daley, Chicago Tribune

"Melt is a cheese-lover's dream, with creative takes on pasta and cheese pairings of all sorts. . . . Garrett and Stephanie's intention [is] to broaden our minds and tastes, appreciating the classics while taking on new culinary territory. Bravo!"―Elise Bauer, founder of Simply Recipes

"This is not only a book filled with excellent info on cheeses and pastas and great recipes . . . it's yet another hopeful example of the way American cooks are raising the quality of the food we eat."―Michael Ruhlman, author of Ruhlman's Twenty

"Calling these recipes 'macaroni and cheese' is a little like calling Fred Astaire a 'hoofer.' Using fine cheeses from everywhere, pasta familiar and not so, imagination and more than a touch of whimsy, Stephanie and Garrett have created modern, sophisticated, beautiful food that satisfies the way the old mac and cheese did. It's almost a feat of magic."―Dorie Greenspan, author of Around My French Table

"In Melt, Stephanie and Garrett take a dish as beloved and familiar as macaroni and cheese and turn it into something positively transcendental. The classic comfort food we all grew up loving is turned upside down, inside out, and made more decadent than I ever imagined it could be. What I love most is that in this beautiful book, recipes such as Pastitsio with Kefalotyri and Lamb can live so harmoniously and unabashedly alongside a comfort food standby like Tuna Noodle Casserole. For ardent mac-and-cheese enthusiasts, look no further than these gorgeous pages!"―Ree Drummond, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks

"This is a gorgeous, entertaining, and exhaustive resource, with recipes not only for classic mac 'n cheese lovers, but also inventive takes on the theme, from a farfalle pasta salad with asparagus, ricotta salata, lime, and mint to a whole roasted pumpkin stuffed with Fontina, macaroni, and Italian sausage. McCord and Stiavetti have redefined the genre."―Molly Wizenberg, founder of Orangette and author of A Homemade Life

A cheese and pasta-filled tour du monde of macaroni & cheese. Cozy comfort foods at their best--with Melt: The Art of Macaroni and Cheese, you'll be grating, melting, and baking your way to soul-warming nirvana!―David Lebovitz, author The Sweet Life in Paris and Ready for Dessert

"With Melt, authors Garrett McCord and Stiavetti Stiavetti take the comforting concept of macaroni and cheese and push it to stratospheric heights. Packed with artfully written, deeply researched information on cheeses across the spectrum -- from the familiar to the exotic -- Melt delivers creative recipes that both seduce and inspire. This is one cookbook you'll definitely want on your shelf."―Cheryl Sternman Rule, author of Ripe: A Fresh, Colorful Approach to Fruits and Vegetables

"Who knew that two household ingredients-pasta and cheese-could inspire such mouthwatering variety? This book is proof that the best kind of culinary ingenuity gives home cooks more choice without added complexity. Easy never tasted so good."―Elaine Khosrova, editor-in-chief of Culture, the word on cheese

"Think macaroni and cheese is almost always the same? Think grilled peaches with Humboldt Fog and orzo. Homemade breadcrumbs. Fresh paneer. Mornay sauce that will leave you drooling. Melt made me hungry and happy. McCord and Stiavetti offer tips for choosing and storing cheese, as well recommended varieties of pasta for each recipe (including a brown rice pasta for those of us who have to eat gluten-free). If you don't want a big bowl of creamy macaroni and cheese after seeing this book, there might be something wrong with you."―Shauna James Ahern, author of Gluten-free Girl
