  • About
What is comfort food? It is food that gives us both pleasure and a sense of ease—a plate of something nice that delivers well-being along with sustenance.

For many Americans—even those of us who didn’t grow up with a nonna who folded her own agnolotti or lingered over a bubbling pot of meat sauce for the Sunday family pranzo—the language of comfort food is largely Italian.

A go-to weeknight pasta, a simple assemblage of peak-season tomatoes, torn basil, and fresh mozzarella, the one-pot roast with polenta on the side—these are the gifts of home-style Italian cooking. We value them for their familiarity, their endless variety, their tireless flexibility—and for the ample comfort we find in the bottom of a bowl of pillow-light gnocchi and rich ragù.
