More Info

Pittsburgh in Your Pot! is the second cookbook in my Pittsburgh journey of food and of the city I love. It is filled with over 180 recipes and stories that define the city, its people, and its culture. Pittsburgh is a city founded and formed by hardworking immigrant families. It is a city that is proud to say that all people were and are always welcome. As the city evolved over the past several hundred years, so did its cuisine. The ethnic food brought to Pittsburgh became a part of who we are. It defines our lives, celebrates our family times, and honors our traditions.As in my first book, Pittsburgh on Your Plate! these recipes have been handed down from generation to generation and gathered over the years from my family, my husband's family, and many close friends. Most were written in worn notebooks and on recipe cards or scraps of paper stuck in cookbooks, all kept so dear. Many of the recipes were from my mom, my grandma Mary (who was a "numbers-running bookie" and packed pickles in a pickle factory), and her sister, my great-aunt Julie (Zia Zia). Pittsburgh in Your Pot! includes a very special section dedicated to our grandmas and their stories and recipes. It contains heartwarming life stories and offers some of the very best recipes handed down to us.Pittsburgh in Your Pot! offers stories and essays about the history of Pittsburgh as well as the ethnic lore, amusing anecdotes, and family stories that will warm your heart and bring a smile--a book that, through its stories and recipes, will allow you to embrace what it is to be a part of this wonderful, unique black-and-gold Yinzer city of Pittsburgh!Pittsburgh in Your Pot! is waiting for you to enjoy the food world of our hometown. Yinz know...that city where the three rivers meet dahntahn and them Stillers play!
