I love this book. Every story is a little gem - a beautiful hymn to each curl, twist and ribbon of pasta.
Rachel Roddy describing how to boil potatoes would inspire me. I want to live under her kitchen table. There are very, very few who possess such a supremely uncluttered culinary voice as hers, just now
When I describe this, [Rachel's] third book, as a journey into the world of pasta, I am short-selling what a soaring and glorious read it is...The intensely curious Roddy is an earthily sensual writer unencumbered by an excess of ego
Rachel Roddy's writing is as absorbing as any novel
Oh I wish I could write like Rachel. She is a natural: recipes that instantly make you want to cook and then eat. I love this book.
Roddy is a gifted storyteller, and a masterful hand with simple ingredients
Unpretentious, unusual and delicious
An A-Z of Pasta is not only immensely user-friendly and practical, it is also a labour of love...Open the book on any page, get into the kitchen, and you are guaranteed a delicious meal
