Cooking With Clara’s Cookbook Brings Italy to Your Kitchen

Mangia! Cooking With Clara: Recipes of a Lifetime brings Italy to your kitchen — no passport required.
The cookbook, which comes from Chicago restaurateur Clara Lizio Melchiorre, gives every food lover the chance to be transported to the heart of Italy, through its traditional recipes.
“I really want this collection to be more of a storybook with recipes,” Melchiorre said in the book via Closer. “A blend of the values my brothers and I grew up with, a special heritage instilled in us by our parents.”
Melchiorre opened her namesake restaurant in Chicago more than 30 years ago
