"A celebration of a life devoted to food, Ammazza! blends story, substance, and soul. Raised in a tight-knit Jewish household in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn--where her grandmother kept kosher downstairs and her family broke the rules upstairs--Sterling shares over 100 recipes that trace her path from her early days as a young cook, to her later love affair with Italian cooking, and her career spent in the kitchens of New York's most beloved restaurants. Following the rhythm of the seasons, these recipes showcase Sterling's brilliance with flavor. Interspersed are menus rooted in family and tradition, with inspired twists--she brings an Italian spin to the Passover table, and shares a Mexican Thanksgiving feast influenced by her time at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill"-- Publisher's website.
