Food journalist and producer. Learn how food shapes our culture with me.
I am originally from Bari, Italy and I have been living in London since 2012. I have built a career around the food industry, reporting on international food for Business Insider on popular series Regional Eats and So Expensive, and now on my personal RU-vid channel.
Living in London and reporting on international food has forever changed the way I eat, but most importantly, the way I relate to food. There is the sensory element to it, but there also is a personal connection that is unique to each of us. I enjoy learning why certain foods are so important to countries and cultures around the world, and how food artisans and chefs cherish their land through food. Follow me for more food videos!
I loved your insider food videos, I subscribed to your channel as soon as I found it, why RU-vid hadn’t recommended it to me before? Never mind, it’s like discovering a new favorite singer after it has several albums, I don’t have to wait. I tried the spaghetti alla assassina, it’s a nice variation.
Italian Chef: *accidentally burns spaghetti* Italian Chef: “Imma too lazy to remaka the spaghetti. Send it outta anyway and tell the stupid foreigner itsa new disha!”
one really innovative and shitty way for making pasta...awfully looking and probably tasting shitty as well... i cannot imagine how this can taste good...
Here in Brazil we haver a kind of sausage called "Linguiça Blumenau", named after the city of Blumenau in Santa Catarina. It was created by German immigrants and is pork-based, but also VERY soft. It is usually eaten spread on a piece of bread, like the one on the video.
Humans seem to overwhelmingly like charred, smoked & seared meats. This extension towards charred pasta seems a rational exploration of capturing endogenous preferences. I might try this but I’m a firm aficionado of real meat, especially beef. Chicken is bottom of my meat preferences. I love eggs but only those laid by chickens that are free to roam & eat bugs, their natural diet.
I have made many Italian dishes and I have never heard of this. I was intrigued enough to watch this process twice. Depite your beauty, not even you could enchant me with this dish. Burnt pasta, meh. 😉
