  • About

It is a real joy to communicate the passion I feel for Italian food, but especially the way Italians produce and use the most wonderful array of vegetables. When I am in an Italian street market, I visit all the stalls to locate the best offers.

I would never buy everything from one stall if the quality wasn’t the highest available. This shopping around is essential if you want to go home with the best ingredients fora wonderful meal; the other essential, of course, is knowing what to do with what you have bought!
