It's second nature for me to cook with seafood and I want that for you too. Baked Sardines is my favorite way to enjoy a fish that was always abundant growing up. Fennel with Anchovies bruschetta reminds me of the sandwiches I ate as a child. Foraging at the beach would reward me with a plate of this Istrian Pasutice with Mixed Seafood. Take a chance, open your kitchen to the bounty of the sea!
This show is all about making your life easier. I remind you to think of recipes as roadmaps, that you can - and should - personalize. I share a Winter Minestrone that can use any kind of hearty green and a Matalota-Style Mixed Fish Stew that can change according to market availability. So go ahead and play with what you have to create something just for you!
I say it every time and I'll say it again...there is nothing more important than gathering around a table.

Pork Chops with Mushrooms and Pickled Peperoncini comes together in one pan. It's simple...cook, sit down together & enjoy.

I teach you that serving up pasta can open a world of possibilities. And share my recipes for two very different flavor-packed pasta dishes - Penne with Cauliflower & Green Olive Pesto and Fusilli with Salami & Roasted Peppers. I catch up with old friends, the Sofgline sisters, from Bologna, to talk all things fresh pasta. From the pasta shape to the sauce you can serve up pasta any way you like.

Everyone deserves to feel welcomed. As my grandkids grew, their tastes did too, so I made them these Sweet Potato Chickpea Gnocchi with Gorgonzola. This colorful Beet & Carrot Salad was inspired by my morning juice stop. And my Turbot Woodsman-Style is an impressive way to serve up fish. There will always be food options, and a place for you here in my kitchen.

The younger generation really enjoy this Avocado & Tomato Salad with Balsamic & Mozzarella. And my Rigatoni with Turkey Meatballs is a new take on the classic. It's time to evolve.

Memories fuel my soul and cooking dishes that remind me of my mother will always bring me comfort. In my kitchen, my mother would shell the favas, along with a song and this mellow Cream of Fava Soup with Rice carries me there. My mother ate more panettone than I could imagine and this homemade Chocolate Cherry Panettone is unbeatable. Grandma Ermnia was the biggest fan of this Eggplant Rollatini!
