21:56Mostaccioli owe their name to one of the ingredients they are made with: grape must (mosto). These days, this elusive ingredient has been replaced with a combination of cocoa, spices and vincotto.
21:14If there is one coveted Italian destination that makes us all dream of balmy summer night in the mediterranean, that is the Amalfi coast.
21:26Join Silvia in her kitchen, where she loves nothing more than share what she has learned from her family and friends, so you too can master the beauty of simple Italian home cooking.
21:50Silvia loves cooking with a little inspiration and ingenuity which can lift a humble everyday activity to a much higher level of sophistication.
21:54Creating family dinners overnight for a family of five, with children of different ages, can be quite the task, and God forbid an Italian cook would prepare separate dinners.
21:40It always surprises Silvia, the staggering number of adults she meets, who are convinced they can't cook.
21:32It is only fitting that a population so profoundly devoted to bread would boast an extensive collection of recipes for when it's past its prime.
21:54Soups and stews play a huge role in the life of an Italian household. Most families enjoy them almost every night during the winter months, bulked up with legumes, bitter greens, sometimes grains.
21:56Silvia has always loved cooking, never once would she have thought of it as a chore. Not until she became a mother to three children, that is!
