Review:
"The Italian term for dessert is generally 'i dolci' or 'il dolce'--meaning 'sweet'--and these words can be found on almost all Italian menus." Antonio Carluccio's Desserts covers the entire spectrum of Italian puddings. You'll find recipes for ones with fruit and nuts, pastries, jams and preserves, and frozen and chilled puddings. Some of the more exotic ones include "Marroni al Mascarpone" (Candied Chestnuts with Mascarpone), "Baba Vesuvio" (Rum Baba) and "Ravioli Fritti Sardi con Miele" (Fried Sardinian Pecorino Ravioli with Honey). There are also a few healthier options, or simply choose Carluccio's favourite--a slice of immaculately ripe, fresh seasonal fruit. --Dale Kneen
