Breaking the Rules: A Fresh Take on Italian Classics (A Cookbook)
Autor Joe Sasto Cu Thea Baumannen Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 noi 2025
Imaginați-vă că puteți stăpâni arta pastelor artizanale, transformând o cină obișnuită într-un spectacol de arome și forme geometrice demne de un restaurant cu stele Michelin. În Breaking the Rules, Joe Sasto reușește să demitizeze rigoarea uneori restrictivă a bucătăriei italiene, oferindu-ne permisiunea de a experimenta fără teamă. Suntem de părere că forța acestui volum rezidă în abordarea sa stratificată: autorul nu doar prezintă o rețetă, ci construiește un parcurs educațional. Fiecare capitol debutează cu elementele fundamentale — cum ar fi chiftelele clasice sau focaccia — pentru ca apoi să ne ghideze spre „încălcarea regulilor” prin infuzii creative de arome, precum utilizarea ardeiului iute calabrez în combinații surprinzătoare cu portocala.
Complementar volumului The Pasta Queen: The Art of Italian Cooking, unde Nadia Caterina Munno se concentrează pe eleganța și tradiția regală a meselor italiene de familie, Breaking the Rules explorează latura ludică și inovatoare, fiind mai degrabă un manifest al creativității moderne. Dacă titluri precum Pasta Rules de Danilo Cortellini pun accent pe execuția autentică și regulile stricte ale ambasadei italiene, Joe Sasto alege să folosească aceste baze ca pe o trambulină către invenții culinare. Textura bogată a cărții, susținută de fotografii vibrante și sfaturi profesionale, transformă procesul de gătire într-o experiență tactilă și vizuală intensă. Este o lucrare care nu se mulțumește cu simpla reproducere a unor rețete, ci încurajează cititorul să își dezvolte propriul instinct gastronomic, trecând de la simplitatea unei mese de seară la complexitatea unui festin vizual.

Notă biografică
Celebrity chef Joe Sasto found his love for cooking and Italian classics as a child at his mother’s side, and it was at the Michelin-starred Quince in San Francisco that Sasto’s passion for pasta truly began. In 2018, Sasto forged his own path and dreamed of opening his own restaurant. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March of 2020, he pivoted his career by teaching virtual pasta-making classes. With more than 100 million likes and countless viral social media videos, Sasto has become a recurring judge and chef personality across multiple shows on the Food Network. He’s also competed and appeared on Food Network shows such as Guy Fieri’s Tournament of Champions, Guy’s Grocery Games, and Chopped, as well as Bravo’s Top Chef and Top Chef All Stars. In 2022, Sasto made the Food Network’s first-ever “Hot List.” Aside from his career as a chef, Joe Sasto has developed a high-end customizable pasta and pizza tool line, and he is the creator of Tantos, the first puffed pasta chip which launched the summer of 2024. He lives in Chicago and enjoys spending time with his pup, Tito.
