Editorial Reviews
"I was first drawn to Danny for his strong family values and love of pasta-it reminded me so much of my own upbringing. Danny is truly an edible artist. I'm so in awe of the beautifully natural and playful way that he creates pastas of all shapes, colors, and designs. The only thing missing from this book is my ability to buy all of the amazing pastas he makes!"-Giada De Laurentiis, chef, restaurateur, and founder of Giadzy.com
"Danny's videos put a smile on my face every day, and this book is everything we know him for and more. Super creative, fun, and personal, but also a masterclass in everything you need to know about pasta. This book looks good on the coffee table, but you'll probably find it in the kitchen covered in flour because there's just so much to learn!"-Poppy O'Toole, author of Poppy Cooks: The Food You Need and judge on Young MasterChef UK
"Gorgeously shot and so wonderfully personal, Danny injects a deeply needed sense of fun and whimsy to the oftentimes serious and methodical world of pasta. Every recipe is an encouragement to dare to try something different for no other reason than the sake of joy, which makes Danny Loves Pasta perfect for anyone who might want to try making pasta for the first time. Because of that same element of fun, some lifelong experts might learn a thing or two from him as well."-Jon Kung, content creator and cookbook author
"Danny's ode to pasta is simply a joy. From delicate tortellini wrapped in thin multi-colored pinstripes-a genius technique that I now happily use in my own doughs-to ravioli shaped like delightful succulents, Danny Loves Pasta is a book that pushes the boundaries of what pasta can be in the most friendly and approachable way. Every recipe is a love letter to the art of pasta, where shapes and fillings from the traditional to whimsical have turned my kitchen into a playground of flour and creativity. The results look like edible art, but I don't stare for too long. In the end, the pasta is simply too delicious not to eat."-Frankie Gaw, author of First-Generation: Recipes from My Taiwanese-American Home and creator of Little Fat Boy

Danny makes it so easy to learn to make pasta. His sauces and recipes are delicious ! His Tik Tock and Instragram videos give you the confidence to try it! He’s an artist with some of his creations!!

I love watching Danny’s instagram and preorder his book. It’s so much better than expected. It’s not just pasta making, there’s a lot of recipes and filling. They all sound so delicious and I can’t wait to cook my way through this book. ❤️

Absolutly beautiful book. The recipes are so easy to pick up and it's a create your own pasta book with endless possibilities. I've not come across a cookbook as cohesive as this one in a long time and I'm super excited to start cooking (and my dogs are super excited for scraps). The photos and instructions are amazingly vibrant as well.

Great for beginners, creative types or someone how wants to try something new. I'm not experienced in pasta making but I would imagine it's great for people who already know how to make pasta too! Lots of unique and different receipts for doughs and sauces. Teaches you basics and nee techniques. It even goes over the tools you'll need and even gives instructions for a simple low cost way to give pasta making a try!! Wonderful book.

This cookbook is fabulous. I had never tried to prepare homemade pasta before, but he makes it very easy to follow the instructions and my first attempt at tagliatelle was delicious. The variety of shapes and colors is just amazing. I pre-ordered the book in March after following Danny on multiple social media platforms and seeing him on TV. The book arrived this week and I am looking forward to trying many more pasta and sauce recipes. His backstory about his grandmother's death inspiring him to start this venture is beautiful. Thanks Danny!
