PBS Debuts New DVD From Chef Lidia Bastianich

angiamo! Audiences will travel the city streets and country back roads of Italy with renowned television chef Lidia Bastianich this January to learn the tricks to some of her most simple and savory Italian dishes — from homemade pastas to mouthwatering desserts. The Best of Lidia will hit retail shelves on January 26, 2010.

The Best of Lidia
Lidia Matticchio Bastianich has been a Public Television favorite since her first cooking series premiered in 1998. Over the past eight years, she has become one of America’s most beloved television chefs through her three previous series, Lidia’s Italian Table, Lidia’s Italian-American Kitchen and Lidia’s Family Table, which was recently nominated as “Best Television Food Show - National” by the James Beard Foundation.

Join Lidia as she shares some of her simplest and most delicious recipes from her travels to all of the regions of Italy. The Best of Lidia features family friendly starters, quick pastas and main courses, and, of course, some of Lidia’s favorite desserts!
