#32 - Cristin | Sprezzatura, All Things Italian Food
07/06/21 • 38 min
Today's guest Cristin has found her voice and connected to her ancestors & heritage through food. Having not yet visited Italy, she roams the piazza's and pictures the mediterranean while enjoying and cooking the food of her people.
Sprezzatura - a term coined by Italian author in the 1500’s, meaning the art of looking great, but without fussiness. Sprezzatura which is a nonchalance, concealing all effort and making the finished product or outfit look stylish and polished. And that’s what comes to mind when I think of Italian food. Stracciatella Soup Or bruschetta...elegant in their simplicity.
Casal Velino is a town and commune in the province of Salerno in the Campania region of south-western Italy.
Thinking of buying a house in Italy? Click here for the article I mentioned in the episode on buying a beautiful house, in a small town, for very cheap.

#31 - STAPLE | Butter, Sugar, Flour, Eggs
On today’s STAPLE episode I’m talking about the 4 most important ingredients to have on hand to bake anything: Butter, Sugar, Flour, Eggs.
Eggs: Did you know most baking recipes call for a large egg? A large egg weighs about 50 grams. Why is that important? Well baking is a science. And how much egg is in a recipe counts. So if you regularly purchase extra large or jumbo eggs and a recipe calls for a couple eggs you may want to do some quick math and see if you need to put all the eggs the recipe calls for. It will change the texture, rise, and taste of your creation.
