About Me
from Italian Traditional Food

Here is a little about me and Italian Traditional Food. Since I was a young girl I have always enjoyed spending time in the kitchen. I can remember times with my own mother cooking for the family. These memories are what have always motivated me to make the most of mealtime with my own family.

I come from a fairly large Italian family and food has always been a very important part of our lives. Even after I married into another Italian family, I still continue to stay home and cook. I have found that cooking traditional Italian foods from scratch has been one of the most rewarding gifts I have given to my family.

More about me .....

While I spent time living in Italy, I travelled all through the country. During this time I was able to learn many of the regional specialty dishes.

Some of these recipes are not well known in other parts of the world. I am fortunate to have been able to share them with family and friends as I prepared them over the years and you will now be able to do the same.

The secret to good Italian cooking is fresh, fresh, fresh. The fresher the ingredients the better your meal will taste.

While in Italy I had the luxury of visiting the market as often as I wanted. I could take my time to pick out fresh vegetables and herbs for each meal right before I was going to cook. If you know where to shop where you live you can also get all your ingredients fresh. I cannot stress the importance of fresh and organic foods.
