Homemade Kitchen Magic
The inspiration for our homemade recipes and culinary adventures stems from my upbringing in a small town in coastal central Italy, my brazen curiosity toward things I never tried before, and our travels, both domestic and abroad. Of course there are other elements that influence my alchemical creative wave: the seasonality of the ingredients, the weather and the mood that it instills, and lastly the ecological benefits and health properties that some foods may boast over others.
Here’s where we will post our culinary escapades. Our globally-inspired recipes will be plant-based, vegetarian or vegan most of the time. Some will be quick and easy, while others complex and epicurean.
Slowly, feel the textures, smell the scent, taste the flavor, and craft some magic
