For an Italian born-and raised home cook like Silvia, cooking Italian food isn’t a mere matter of reading a recipe, buying the ingredients and following a method.
Cooking Italian doesn’t necessarily respond to such a logical equation. Most Italian home-cooks have never even read a cookbook because their culinary knowledge has been passed on to them as a dowry by their mothers or grandmothers.Such knowledge spans from kneading doughs, knowing which flour is best to use for each specific purpose, why dried pasta is better then fresh pasta when making a Vongole sauce...
If you don’t have the luxury of an Italian Nonna on speed dial, never fear!
Leave it to Silvia Colloca, a food writer and home-cook with a passionate opinion on what true Italian food is, to take you by the hand to discover a new approach to everyday cooking.
