The Corleone Family Cookbook
The love of family is richly entwined in Italian culture, and often expressed physically through cooking. This tradition is punctuated throughout The Godfather trilogy through integral scenes in kitchens, bars and restaurants. In fact, it’s difficult to watch the classic film series without involuntary stomach grumbling.
The Corleone Family Cookbook features 75 recipes inspired by authentic Italian dishes with playful nods to the classic films, including Clemenza’s Sunday Sauce and the “Leave the Gun” Cannoli.
This cookbook reminds us that alongside the many The Godfather quotes that have become pop culture clichés, the recipes also live far beyond the rolling of the credits. Don Vito Corleone may have said, “Revenge is a dish best served cold,” but these Italian recipes sure aren’t.
