EVOO Just as good quality EVOO is the foundation of the Mediterranean diet, sharing meals with others is the foundation of the Mediterranean lifestyle. For this reason, Epicurus stated “We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink.” In my Mediterranean Lifestyle for Dummies book, I discuss how researchers found that the common practice of communal eating in the region contributes to overall health as well as psychological wellbeing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/5ef54372-399d-4962-9fb9-bbf2aa8f440f/MediterraneanLifestyle.jpg HOME - 3 Mediterranean Diet Hacks &amp; A Summer Recipe - In addition to the cultural and religious symbolism associated with olive oil and the wonderful flavor that it lends to food, it’s health properties make it the perfect addition, and base, to the diet. EVOO contains vitamin E, carotenoids and phenols such as hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein which are known for their antibacterial and anti- inflammatory effects. Since inflammation is the cause of illness, basing your diet around anti-inflammatory ingredients is a great idea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/e726025d-b692-43a4-988d-7467f663f3f7/Olive+Oil+FD_JPG.JPG HOME - 3 Mediterranean Diet Hacks &amp; A Summer Recipe - Dr. Simon Poole and I discuss everything you need to know about EVOO in our latest book Olive Oil For Dummies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a257e41c-a796-46ac-b800-1dde6a4627e7/Diabetes+Cookbook+For+Dummies+Cover.jpg HOME - 3 Mediterranean Diet Hacks &amp; A Summer Recipe - 3. SPEND TIME OUTDOORS Did you know that mental health experts recommend 30 minutes of fresh air a day – and many believe it’s more beneficial to the psyche than antipsychotic drugs! If you make your communal meal an outdoor meal, you just upped your health quotient for the day a great deal. Or you could go for a walk or go shopping outdoors. Even sitting on a porch, patio or terrace will bring positive results. Try to carve out as much time in nature as possible. Remember, we’re like plants, and we need each other, good food, and sunlight to thrive. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/i3k0qr1ar6vw06hr1l2a41pnmpsumm monthly 0.5 2025-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/21eed2f5-df4f-4f9d-9efd-b4b927a4d5e9/IMG_3052.jpg HOME - National Oatmeal Cookie Day on Fox TV - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/caed0e2c-8d61-40d3-9782-594b16b45d13/IMG_3039.jpg HOME - National Oatmeal Cookie Day on Fox TV - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/5fsi6kczm340synrl3zeqnwyl7ncn1 monthly 0.5 2025-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/5c0138ce-3667-4a08-9a19-2b6e3eac76aa/WhatsApp+Image+2025-04-16+at+19.36.59+%281%29.jpeg HOME - Mediterranean-Style Strudel: Diabetes-Friendly &amp; Delicious - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/eab850eb-a22a-4450-b00d-bcafc5d7b75a/WhatsApp+Image+2025-04-16+at+19.36.59.jpeg HOME - Mediterranean-Style Strudel: Diabetes-Friendly &amp; Delicious - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/v8khmcssjv9zdpbc4xq6c8nqvsisq9 monthly 0.5 2025-01-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/8b95189b-377e-443a-998c-de3e283dba8b/jan1.1.1.jpeg HOME - “Baking is love made edible.”~ Amy Riolo - Make it stand out January is National Baking Month and the perfect time to warm up with wholesome and delicious recipes from the oven.

The first was with my Nonna Angela, and the second was during a class at the Pizza University and Culinary Arts Center where I became certified in “Traditional Neapolitan Techniques in a Wood Fired Oven” by Maestro Pizzaiolo Enzo Coccia. Each type of pizza requires the proper oven, and if you don’t have a brick oven that fires to 900F degrees at home, it’s best to stick with the tried and true recipes of Italian home cooks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/17c4e7b2-b410-4d6e-983c-9d287b4f6201/IMG_1114.JPG HOME - My Top Recipe for National Italian Food Day - In my original post, I shared how authentic pizza coincides with the Mediterranean diet.

Pizza dough dates back to antiquity and has roots in Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Modern pizza (with a tomato topping) was first served in eighteenth-century Naples, Italy, using tomatoes, which were recently imported from the New World, and traditional buffalo-milk mozzarella. By the 19th century there were over 1700 pizzerie in the city, and members of the royal family who broke court etiquette by frequenting them made dining in pizzerie fashionable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/7f9a575b-56ff-4a5e-a8b2-8e86ca2a4b0e/IMG_1110.PNG HOME - My Top Recipe for National Italian Food Day - Metti in risalto Di qualunque cosa si tratti, il modo in cui racconti la tua storia online può fare la differenza. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/a-hrefhttpsamyrioloblogspotcom202311introducing-my-new-calabrian-extrahtmlintroducing-my-new-calabrian-extra-virgin-olive-oila monthly 0.5 2023-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/982b1fd6-b9a7-4554-b62d-c93acd6ec953/tenute.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a2b9f0ba-891f-4f08-a5c0-da92a989c83f/IMG_7092tenute.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil - A few years ago, however, I heard about Tenute Cristiano, an award-winning producer from Lamezia Terme, Calabria, who collaborates with my long-time friend and colleague Stefano Ferrari of LIFeSTYLE. This last year while I was at a trade show in Milan, I got to meet up with Isabella Cristiano and lay the groundwork for what would become a beautiful collaboration. While visiting her family olive orchards this summer, I learned that my dear friend and co-author, Dr. Simon Poole also filmed a piece for British television at Tenute Cristiano years ago, and that he also endorses their products. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d3cbf0c6-2077-4ed1-b0e7-4342137c5394/tenute+cristiano+11.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil - As I strolled through the vast orchards both in the valleys and the hills of the idyllic Mediterranean landscape I was mesmerized by the sight of the Carolea trees that spread as far as the eye could see. After meeting with the Cristiano family, I learned not only how amazing their extra-virgin olive oil is, but how much attention, care, and passion that they pour into their family's business. What a pleasure it was to stroll through the orchards and enjoy a balmy Southern Italian sunset as we nibbled on taralli and olives from the estate. I immediately appreciated the Carolea olive oil for its full-bodied flavor that calls to mind a microcosm of flavors that Calabria is known for. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/8b5972bc-fed0-4365-ac54-fb2b7a9467ba/tenute+cristiano+10.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil - Once we decided on which oil to offer, we waited for the recent harvest period to end, so that we could offer the freshest oil possible. I'm extremely proud to introduce this newly harvested Calabrian extra-virgin olive oil to the Amy Riolo Selections product line. I'm particularly proud of its extremely low acidity and significant polyphenol content which are indicators of the quality and health-boosting bioactive compounds found in the oil. I pair it with all genuine Mediterranean dishes – from simple tomato sauce and salads to more complex pasta, seafood, and meat recipes. I also swap it out for butter in my baking recipes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/f1bb2cc5-5fb9-460a-8372-d0568156098d/tenute+cristiano+2.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d1f64a98-497d-405a-91b8-70eea74ced5c/Amy+Riolo+EVOO+DITALIA.jpeg HOME - Introducing My New Calabrian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil - Some specifics about Amy Riolo Selections EVOO: Production area: Giardino Renda – Tenuta Maida Cultivar: Mono varietal Carolea Harvest period: Mid-October Sensory profile: Intense Green Fruity Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Since it's the day before Valentine's Day, I thought heart shaped Ravioli Capresi, a recipe unique to the romantic island of Capri, would be the perfect dish to demonstrate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/95d4a8ca-55dc-4f45-b4b9-6790596b4e7e/IMG_6758.jpeg HOME - Edible Love on National Italian Food Day I included the ravioli ubiquitous to the Italian island that Pablo Neruda nicknamed "The Pearl of the Mediterranean in my Italian Recipes for Dummies cookbook as well. Be sure to tune in to Fox 5 DC at 10:30 AM. I'll be sharing some of my other Italian favorites on their LION Lunch Hour program as well. I'm also planning on pairing the dish with a Cirò DOC red wine from Librandi. Made from one of the most ancient indigenous grapes to Italy, the Gaglioppo, this bold and bright wine is the perfect accompaniment to the rich and sunny aromas that the ravioli evoke. Interestingly, wine made from this grape was once served to the Greek Olympic champions and the Calabrian ingenuity was so admired by the Greeks that they named Calabrians the "Oenotri" or "The Wine Cultivators" in Greek. If you're interested in exploring my ancestral homeland with me (which is where the Librandi wine is made), don't miss out on my Calabrian Cuisine, Culture, and Wine Tour which takes place in May 2023. February 16 is the last day to register. Learn more here.

A new styling suggestion straight from the Italian streets is to buy your coat extra roomy so that a hooded sweater or sweatshirt can be paired underneath. For busy days with lots of walking in town (many historic parts of Italian downtown areas are pedestrian only and people prefer to walk instead of driving), pair the coat with a stylishly designed pair of sneakers. This is one of my favorite Max & Co looks for the season from Torino. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/7d05723f-6268-4257-8a9d-be377d32ee56/IMG_2862.jpg HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/11/top-ten-italian-womens-fashion-trends.html">Top Ten Italian Women's Fashion Trends for Fall/Winter 2022 &amp; How to Save $ on Them</a> - 2. Black with Gold Brocade Wearing gold brocade with black is an easy and elegant way to elevate your wardrobe (watch video from minute 1.10 forward). Simply mix the brocade pieces with classic black staples such as bolero jackets, blazers, and slim black pants for an instant style upgrade. Perfect for the holidays but subtle enough to wear daily, these looks offer a high ROI. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/b9b02c8e-07af-46ef-9569-897d3307eea5/IMG_4180.jpg HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/11/top-ten-italian-womens-fashion-trends.html">Top Ten Italian Women's Fashion Trends for Fall/Winter 2022 &amp; How to Save $ on Them</a> - 3.

Interesting White Sneakers -paired with everything Italians have been wearing all-white sneakers with everything from dresses to business suits for about 5 years now. What's different now is that the shoes usually have additional textures or innovative styles to offset their casual nature.

Nautical Stripes and Neutrals On their own, nautical striped tops and neutral colors like white, black, and camel don't seem very exciting. When paired together, however, the classic pieces combine to create an effortlessly luxurious look that's comfortable to wear and easy to achieve. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/cf6792df-b13c-4bc4-8a40-1d5eb4e0d74d/IMG_2864.jpg HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/11/top-ten-italian-womens-fashion-trends.html">Top Ten Italian Women's Fashion Trends for Fall/Winter 2022 &amp; How to Save $ on Them</a> - 8. Fuchsia is the New Red When I was in Italy in April, fuchsia was featured in every window I saw in Venice, Verona, and Rome. I bought a few pieces because after a long and difficult winter, seas of bright pink brightened my spirits in a hurry. I was surprised to see the color just as prominent for fall in cities throughout Italyval. Paired with black, leopard, and even red, bright pink can be worn in Winter. But don't take my word for it, Valentino's current Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli himself even created a whole new collection of it called #ValentinoPinkPPCollection in lieu of the brand's signature red. Wearing head to toe pink takes courage and a strong dedication to finding the beauty in the everyday, but it also shows a commitment to creating joy despite the uncontrollable and often hostile world without us. Fuchsia is a color that can be flattering on every skin tone. If your not used to it, or not comfortable wearing it in certain situations, try one piece at a time such as a scarf, lipstick, blouse, or even handbag. You'll be amazed at how much it will lift your spirits and that of those around you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/767776ba-7309-4f36-97c0-478516a76621/IMG_2852.jpg HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/11/top-ten-italian-womens-fashion-trends.html">Top Ten Italian Women's Fashion Trends for Fall/Winter 2022 &amp; How to Save $ on Them</a> - 9. Fur and Feather Trimmed Colors Another glamorous touch of surprise is a splash of fur or feathers around a neckline such as those seen at Gucci. Those two details add interest and drama to take looks from day to night. You can even purchase attachable pearl, feather, and fur collars to dress up existing pieces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/10dc7bf0-fd45-4c61-b9bd-aadd1fd96a04/IMG_2865.jpg HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/11/top-ten-italian-womens-fashion-trends.html">Top Ten Italian Women's Fashion Trends for Fall/Winter 2022 &amp; How to Save $ on Them</a> - 10. Tweed and Herringbone Traditional equestrian styles such as tweed jackets and brown suede and leather boots and even felt hats are especially popular this season. These patterns are easy to wear and blend effortlessly into an existing wardrobe. They pair well with denim and solid colored dark pants and skirts. Planning a trip to Italy?

One of the top challenges in creating authentic Italian pasta recipes is choosing the proper pasta shape and the best sauce to compliment. The second is how much sauce is needed, and the third is how long to cook the pasta. Once you've got these basics down, the tasty and comforting possibilities are endless. It's National Pasta Month, National Sauce Month, and Italian-American Heritage Month, and tomorrow, I have the pleasure of sharing my best three pasta recipes and top tips for pairing them with sauce on Good Morning Washington. Click here to watch the live stream Tuesday, October 18 at 10 AM EST. This topic is so important to me that I listed dozens of the most common pasta shapes with their definitions and recommended pairings in my newly released Italian Recipes for Dummies book. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/89443e66-0dca-4f25-9e0f-195623909f81/italianrecipescover.JPG HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/10/best-3-italian-pasta-recipes-and-top.html">Best 3 Italian Pasta Recipes and Top Tips for Pairing Them with Authentic Sauces</a> Did you know that Italy enjoys more than 500 different pasta shapes, with numerous toppings, accompaniments, and sauces to be paired with? The Italian obsession with serving the right pasta with the proper sauce might seem daunting to newcomers, but it is important to learn the magic behind the right combinations that make both the sauce and the pasta better.

Tune in to watch! Salsa di pomodoro is the most adaptable of Italian sauces, and, depending on how much you use, it could pair with any pasta shape. Spaghetti, penne, paccheri, and many versions of ravioli are often paired with this sauce. It's also used as a base for Parmigiana style dishes, tomato soups, and more elaborate sauces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/aa319e24-1edf-4498-bf74-5001765e9180/ci06.JPG HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/10/best-3-italian-pasta-recipes-and-top.html">Best 3 Italian Pasta Recipes and Top Tips for Pairing Them with Authentic Sauces</a> - Make it stand out Credit: @just_wendyjo @reminiscewithus https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/22f799ff-d303-4f8f-bc6c-34e8d3126c5b/15_italian.JPG HOME - <a href="https://amyriolo.blogspot.com/2022/10/best-3-italian-pasta-recipes-and-top.html">Best 3 Italian Pasta Recipes and Top Tips for Pairing Them with Authentic Sauces</a> - Make it stand out Credit: @just_wendyjo @reminiscewithus https://www.amyriolo.com/web/a-hrefhttpsamyrioloblogspotcom202206top-5-best-italian-recipes-forhtmltop-5-best-italian-recipes-for-summertimea monthly 0.5 2023-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/f0807a13-4990-44d2-abfe-b2cc3adbd9f8/COVER+%281%29.jpg HOME - Top 5 Best Italian Recipes for Summertime</a> Summertime and outdoor gatherings go hand in hand, but many people are challenged when preparing warm-weather meals.

But I always joke that "In Vinitaly veritas" because attending the four days of major events, technical sessions, prestigious tastings, theme areas, and adjacent shows is such an eye-opening experience for me. This year was no exception, and in honor of National Wine Day, I wanted to share a little bit of what I learned from this year's unforgettable experience. Wine is often described as bottled poetry, and to understand it properly, it never hurts to have poetic translators by your side. At this year's show I got to spend a day with my dear friend Dr. Sante Laviola, who casually and effortlessly describes wine in the most beautiful way I have ever heard. The opening quote at the top of this post is an excerpt from a text message that he sent me after an afternoon wine tasting. His knowledge and love not only of wine, but of Italian heritage and soil seeps through every word he writes, and it is for this reason that I am thrilled to have collaborated with him on Italian Recipes for Dummies where he carefully paired each of my recipes with natural Italian wines. Stay tuned for more blog posts, writing, and events with Dr. Laviola's pairings and prose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/984356c0-9b2c-43ca-b875-5cd98d124ecf/IMG_7229.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Another annual highlight of VinItaly is the relationships that are fostered. Forming new business alliances, making new friends, and connecting with so many industry leaders in such a short time is virtually impossible anywhere else. It also provides the perfect opportunity to reconnect with longtime friends and colleagues, taste their latest harvests and vintages, learn about new products, market trends, and more. The minute I knew I would be able to attend this year's expo, I immediately contacted my longtime friend Paolo Librandi, of Librandi wines, to taste his Megonio, the wine that the Associazione Italiana Sommelier named "Wine of the Year" for 2022. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/f9a144a9-2265-4d0f-b992-b6fa4d682022/IMG_7233.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> It makes me so proud that the Magliocco grape, indigenous to my ancestral homeland of Calabria holds the "Wine of the Year" title and that the Librandi family was able to, for the first time, put Calabria back on the wine map that the ancient Greeks first created when they named us the Oenotri, or the "wine cultivators." Learn more about it here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/20dfbd8b-b943-4362-88cd-31e1a3a57362/IMG_8819.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Next, it was time to visit my friends at Bocale wines, with whom I had collaborated with at an event in Washington, DC in 2019. Hailing from Umbria, a region whose slogan at Vinitaly was "sips of happiness," their fantastic wines were just featured in CNN's Searching for Italy program with Stanley Tucci during the Umbria episode. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/9866d3e3-f0f7-4fa8-b9fc-8b44ae87b989/IMG_8821+%281%29.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> For those of you who have spent any time at all in Umbria, you will immediately recognize both its distinct soil and its Trebbiano Spoletino and Sagrantino. Pliny the Elder, in “Historia Naturalis”, describes the “Itriola”, a typical grape of the region, which according to several scholars is likely to be the Sagrantino grape. Other historical sources assume that the vines were imported from Minor Asia by the followers of Saint Francis of Assisi. From 1540 a communal decree officially established the registration of grape harvest in Montefalco. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/db8f5875-3a7d-432a-b89f-87c83523d543/IMG_7712.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Many of you are familiar with my affinity for Abruzzo. Through years of leading tours to the region I have been able to taste its' finest wines and note the differences in taste and technique. The term, "Montepulciano d'Abruzzo," for example, means different things depending on who makes it and how it is made. In Abruzzo, I had the pleasure of enjoying an exceptional version that I could happily drink every day for the rest of my life. After this year's expo I was able to spend time at the Martelli family's vineyard, where the owner, Domenico Martelli shared some of his secrets to success with me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a04ffcc6-cd51-43b9-8e5c-1301665e507a/IMG_7514.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> I was already aware of the Martelli family's commitment to producing honest and genuine extra-virgin olive oil, because they make my Amy Riolo Selections blend for me. This, however, was the first time I was able to taste their wine with them. Domenico explained that the strong differences between the climate during the days and nights in their vineyards, combined with good ventilation guarantee the vines an ideal microclimate for growing and producing grapes of extraordinary quality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/f726b31d-cb47-431b-8c3f-f40f498e324e/IMG_7981.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> The Martelli family's Montepulciano d"Abruzzo DOC and Pecorino terre di Chieti Igt are award-winning examples of the maximum expression that these two indigenous grapes can provide. Another favorite of mine is the Cerasuolo D'Abruzzo DOC, a rosé with the heart of a red that is delicious to drink and a game changer for many of our American travelers to the region. Each of these wines is the perfect accompaniment to both the land and sea components of traditional Abruzzese cuisine, and has the ability to pair well with a wide variety of international dishes as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/b7ea6f38-617e-419f-a8d7-5cf15efc24bd/IMG_8814+%281%29.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> - Make it stand out With Winemaker Elio Savoca of Gigliotto https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/00903620-314b-4411-8e02-dcb61bef8539/IMG_7325.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Their San Michele Frappato was a huge hit with our American delegation, as was their exceptional Nero d'avola An unexpected delight for me to taste was their Conte Ruggero, an IGT Sicilian red made from the Petit Verdot grape. I had never heard of using this grape in Sicily, so I had no expectations whatsoever when I first tasted it. To my surprise, though, it was really delightful. Its taste was fine and elegant, full of personality and dotted with mature red berry and fruit flavors. Owner and winemaker Elio Savoca shared the 900 year history of the winery with me and explained why he named this wine after one of Sicily's most important historical figures. Check out this beautiful video of their estate in this video... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/112517fa-bb87-4ad4-946e-795761c1bff4/IMG_7413+%281%29.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Finally it was time to taste the sweet stuff. Despite my love of Amaro and Limoncello, I had to save the best for last because it is hard to kick off a day full of meetings with a digestivo, no matter how alluring they may be. So each day I would fight my urge to sip Amaranca "The Nobile Amaro of Etna." The explosions of aromas and flavors coming from this amaro was worth my trip to Verona alone. Even though I am now back in the states, I still happily sip Amaranca, the Sicilian bitter liqueur obtained from wild Sicilian oranges and medicinal herbs and roots grown on Etna's slopes nightly. Apparently, I am not the only one, because this liqueur holds two gold medals from the World Liqueur Awards in London. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/e0b8e881-a060-4c40-8bc6-06e331c7c553/IMG_7412.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> Limonetna, Limoncello made from lemons grown on the slopes of Mount Etna, really sets the bar high for the lemony liqueur. Each sip is as bold and beautiful as its' gorgeous bottle, which happens to match my kitchen perfectly! It is the first liqueur to be made with the IGP lemons from Mt. Etna, and is the winner of the Bronze award at the International Wine Spirits Competition. This sunny classic from the Romeo family will always be in style, offering a sip of the Sicilian sun - and a key to unlocking the limitless potential of authentic Italian flavors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/af2de561-c108-46a7-a017-2e6ffd1eb1a2/IMG_7445.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> The last Sicilian flavor I tasted during the Vinitaly festivities was the Marsala by Florio at the closing night's awards dinner at the Verona arena. Legend has it, the owner warned, that whoever drinks their Dolce Superiore 2017 "will fall in love." After one sip, I was a believer, and can attest that this Marsala will be a game changer for anyone who never fully appreciated it before. And as for falling in love, I will keep you posted, but in the meantime I like to think that "love is not an emotion, it is our very existence," as the great Rumi said. Perhaps the wine and luscious spirits we sample at Vinitaly just help to make us realize the truth sooner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/2fc730ea-25e7-4373-b45c-5d8ca66e9155/5921b5bb-fbbd-4e19-a230-71f4b03ce2ad.jpg HOME - In Vinitaly Veritas</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/a-hrefhttpsamyrioloblogspotcom202202calabria-bottled-discovering-wine-ofhtmlcalabria-bottled-discovering-the-wine-of-championsa monthly 0.5 2023-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/80906855-2555-4535-86bf-65bbb8c1f1ab/casabona-83.jpg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> A few years ago, my ancestral homeland of Calabria was named “Italy’s most delicious secret” by Traveler Magazine, and this year, for the first time, the Association of Italian Sommelier’s Guida Vitae 2022 named one our wines, Librandi’s Megonio IGP, “The Best Italian Wine” for 2022. While it might sound strange to many, this title means as much to me, and to Calabria itself, as it does to the producers who created it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/6f3985b8-4294-4623-9c59-890d5e76742c/me+at+librandi.jpeg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> In order to understand the depth of emotion behind this statement, one must first understand the ancient roots of wine cultivation in Calabria. This ancient region was originally inhabited by the people whom the Greeks called Oenotri or “The Wine Cultivators,” and another group, the Itali,whose name eventually named Italy itself. The wine from the same soil that Librandi wine operates from has a story that goes back millennia, and it was their wines that were served to the champions of the Olympic games in ancient Greece. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/63fe2227-d20f-47b7-8365-47a03e1e980b/amy+riolo+nicodemo+librandi.jpg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> In modern times, the wines of the Italian South are just beginning to be appreciated with the same reverence that the ancient Greeks had for them. Since the 1950’s, the Librandi family has dedicated themselves to producing the best quality wine that the region has to offer. Dr. Nicodemo Librandi, whom I had the pleasure of visiting on several occasions and formally interviewing in this clip years ago, has passionately spent his career researching and preserving ancient indigenous varietals that would have otherwise been lost. In addition to the many accolades that Nicodemo, his family, and the winery have accumulated over the years, the agricultural masterpieces of biodiversity that they are guaranteeing, and the economic growth that they are providing to our region, the Librandi family have consistently provided a tangible piece of Calabria that could be enjoyed all over the world. What matters most to me, however, was the sense of pride, place, and purpose that holding a bottle of their wine provided me and many others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a768bea3-044c-4a84-b4ee-8183df2dc137/IMG_5027.jpg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> When I was growing up in New York State, a Calabrian-American, there were no other items that I could hold, or purchase, which told the story of my ethnic origins. Despite the fact that ¼ of Italian-Americans have Calabrian roots, most people (including the Italian-Americans) knew nothing about Calabria. Thanks to Librandi’s success, their wines were widely distributed in the US and abroad. With a bottle of Cirò Rosso in my hand, I could easily begin a conversation about the splendors of Calabria with my friends, my colleagues, and the public. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/37f046b8-855a-4d1e-bfef-ac763df8eccf/Nicodemo+Librandi.jpeg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> The Librandi Winery enabled me to share the beauty, richness, and depth of Calabria that wasn’t portrayed in media, films, or literature. A sip of their wine told the story of our Greek roots, our Byzantine name, deep history of viticulture, and modern technological and business savvy which put the wine both on the market and the modern map. Best of all, to me, the wine brought me back to a place that was home in all senses of the word. Driving south in Italy from Rome, we have to pass through Cirò Marina, where the Librandi Winery is located to get to the nearby city of Crotone (Kroton in ancient times) where my parents’ family hails from in order to visit relatives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/e0245b74-356e-404f-8df2-5eeac718cd7e/ciro+rosso.jpeg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> After hours of driving through the mountains, arriving in Cirò meant seeing the Ionian Sea, smelling the same air that my family does and ancestors did, and retracing the steps that my Great-Grandfather never got to return to. Each time I visit the Librandi Winery, I’m reminded of all of those things while feeling an enormous sense of pride and nostalgia simultaneously. Their winery represents the eno-gastronomic bridge that has been connecting my family for a century both in the US and Italy. When I first sat down with Dr. Nicodemo Librandi to interview him about the winery’s history, he joked with me and said to me in Italian; “I’ve been all over the world promoting my wine, and I don’t speak a word of English.” We laughed, but I very quickly replied, “You don’t need to, this wine speaks for itself.” I’m a very emotional person, and in lieu of a formal wine education (which I must admit has grown quite a bit since I started surrounding myself by Italian Sommeliers) I believed Librandi wines to the best because they were the most meaningful to me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/27ff388a-149b-4ee3-8888-28d1e4c13067/IMG_5037.jpg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> When Nicodemo, his son Paolo, and daughter-in-law Katrin began to educate me on their wines, however, it became clear that they had much more to offer than my family favorites of Cirò Rosso, Duca San Felice, and the award-winning Gravello (all derived from indigenous Gaglioppo grapes) which have been widely available in the US for some time now. I learned about each of the varieties that the Librandi family risked time, land, and money to harvest. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/1ac88442-4677-4d1a-8dc9-45e137ef338c/Megonio+Librandi.jpeg HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> Megonio, the wine named the best in 2022 comes from Magliocco grapes, a historical Calabrian variety that is cultivated in the valleys. It’s a highly structured red wine that represents the best of the essence of our land itself. In 2019, just before the lockdown, Paolo was in Washington, DC conducting wine events (click here to see the video), and he shared with me that the name Megonio, comes from the Roman centurion of the same name who lived in our lands in the second century CE and which was the first to leave written traces of our viticulture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/8af372be-2816-4bb7-8834-93b419051bb0/IMG_4847+%281%29.JPG HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> A 2019 Calabrian trip enabled me to tour the varietal vineyard where experimental growing occurs and enjoy learning about the production process with Paolo while sampling each and every wine with his wife Katrin. At the time, we were planning to conduct Calabrian Cuisine, Culture, and Wine tours together, since Katrin also offers her own culinary tours. She also took us to their gorgeous wine museum which transports visitors through the history of world viticulture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/21485781-a810-4b80-af2f-7bb43dc0a0cf/IMG_4836.JPG HOME - Calabria Bottled: Discovering the Wine of Champions</a> Watch my Instagram Live podcast with Paolo and Katrin here. Embarking on a journey into the world of Calabrian wines is to set out upon a journey of the region and its’ people alike. The ancient Greek philosopher and Mathematician, Pythagoras, who lived and taught in Calabria said that “friends are companions on the journey of life.” I am fortunate to consider the Librandi family cherished friends, and proud that their wines, among which we can now call the best in Italy, are available to accompany us on a delicious journey. May the fragrant breeze of their sweet-smelling grapes lead the wines of Calabria to continued success.

January is National Tea Month, and this recipe is the perfect partner for one of the world's favorite beverages. When temperatures drop to frigid levels, as they are right now in the Washington, DC area, I turn to spice-infused recipes, hot drinks, and lots of extra-virgin olive oil to soothe my psyche and warm my spirits, all while reaping extra anti-inflammatory benefits. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/790f4148-7926-495e-a1e2-33c62df022f6/tea+egyptian.jpeg HOME - Warm Up with Mediterranean Spice, Orange, and EVOO Infused Gingerbread</a> Winter baking is especially satisfying, and I'm always looking for fun ways spend more quality time with the oven in cold weather. This month I can't get enough of all things ginger. Ginger arrived in the Mediterranean via India where Ayurvedic doctors regard it as a traditional therapy known to activate the body's fire element. It's used to burn up toxins, relieve muscle inflammation, motion sickness, morning sickness and aid digestion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d576c40c-b671-4540-9c25-9efc95cf557e/IMG_4491.JPG HOME - Warm Up with Mediterranean Spice, Orange, and EVOO Infused Gingerbread</a> For those reasons, my attention has shifted to gingerbread - not the cookies that are normally associated with Christmas, but the loaves that were introduced to Europe from the Eastern Mediterranean. Even though we know consider gingerbread to be an English or American type of sweet treat, its' roots are definitely global. In 16th century England, during the Elizabethan era, lexicographer John Baret described gingerbread as a cake made to comfort the stomach. In the United States, the recipe can be traced back to George Washington's mother who made the batter into eagle-shaped cookies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/bcff20f3-5602-44b0-a196-25999e740e49/IMG_4743.JPG HOME - Warm Up with Mediterranean Spice, Orange, and EVOO Infused Gingerbread</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/a-hrefhttpsamyrioloblogspotcom202110my-30-day-mediterranean-mediterraneanhtmlmy-30-day-mediterranean-mediterranean-lifestyle-contesta monthly 0.5 2023-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d22fdb5a-b92e-4918-b162-11b3bc4d7532/1+%2811%29.png HOME - My "30-Day Mediterranean Mediterranean Lifestyle Contest"</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/15dac625-338c-4741-95c7-954f7ee56b3e/Med+Lifestyle+FD+Cover+%281%29+%281%29.jpg HOME - My "30-Day Mediterranean Mediterranean Lifestyle Contest"</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a21af532-d535-48ae-8b42-689551406778/1000_amyriolobox_1000x.jpg HOME - My "30-Day Mediterranean Mediterranean Lifestyle Contest"</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.amyriolo.com/web/kxh4hqj450wg5ttsm3aau66io05kht monthly 0.5 2023-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/507c3695-d9fd-41fd-ae2e-6bbed2ca2005/sel1.JPG HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - Nov 16-21 is known as the World Week of Italian Cuisine, and it gives me great pleasure to celebrate this occasion with the introduction of two new Amy Riolo Selections products. In addition to my 100% Italian Extra-Virgin Olive Oil from the award-winning Trappeto di Caprafico, I will am now offering the following products. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/ca610677-ed9c-4984-9dd3-a1d47fb1b344/sel2.jpg HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - Amy Riolo Selections DOP Sundried Red Pesto with Genovese Basil I am proud to partner with the world-renown Anfosso brand to introduce my privately-labelled Ligurian twist on classic basil pesto. This product is a winner of the 2019 SOFI Gold award for best pasta sauce, and I consider it to be the perfect pantry staple. Pesto Genovese is the most famous pesto in all of Italy. Only pesto made in a precise manner with fresh Ligurian DOP basil can carry the DOP label. At the heart of this DOP Sun-dried Red Pesto are five ingredients: peeled sun-dried tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil from Anfosso, fresh Ligurian DOP basil, Grana Padano cheese, and pine nuts. I believe that the intense aroma, bright, red color and sweet taste of this pesto are perfect for pairing with pasta, panini, risotto, pizza, easy appetizers, and even roasted vegetables and meats. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/32d392e4-5c48-4770-961c-4caa8e6dc7af/sel3.jpg HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - Amy Riolo Selections White Balsamic Dressing This unique balsamic condiment from the centuries old Acetaia Castelli is made from 65% concentrated white grape must and 35% of white wine vinegar. This product is made from Trebbiano grapes, which are one of the varietals used in making traditional balsamic vinegar. It’s a young product quickly aged in virgin barrels to create the perfect balance of golden color and naturally sweet taste. It has a low acidity of only 5% which lends a slightly sweet flavor to any dish. Free of artificial colorings, preservatives, and thickeners, this product is ideal for salad dressings as well as for dressing fish, chicken and white meats. Because of its’ light color, it doesn’t “soil” a dish, so it’s perfect to maintain the original color but at the same time gives sweet balsamic notes. I love to pair it with my Amy Riolo Selections Extra-Virgin Olive Oil to top salads, vegetables, fresh cheese, and fruit, or to make marinades and use whenever a dish needs a light flavor boost. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a76ef298-a121-4624-83da-582426fce9af/SEL1.jpg HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - My selection is an artisan-blend containing three cultivars – predominately the Gentile di Chieti and the Intosso (which is indigenous only to Abruzzo) varieties, with a touch of the Leccino variety as well. The careful blending of these olives lends sweet, harmonious, and fruity characteristics to the flavor of the oil. Cold-extraction and natural filtration combined with its’ very low-acidity rate make this oil the perfect choice for both ultimate flavor and health benefits. The estate’s oils have won many Italian and international accolades and is named the 3rd best olive mill in the world. This one-of-a-kind oil boasts notes of tomatoes, almonds, herbs, and artichokes. It pairs well with grilled and roasted meats, poultry and fish, tomato sauces, cooked vegetable dishes, salads, and a wide range of antipasti. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/5aa6d0ef-bcab-4e54-ba3e-8d5ed5c80d44/SEL2.jpg HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - Contrary to popular belief, Italian food is the perfect cuisine for those looking for heart healthy and diabetes-friendly dishes. Real Italian food is healthful, delicious, and the most popular cuisine in the world. At its core, classic Italian cuisine is all about preparing fresh ingredients like fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans, legumes, dairy, seafood, and poultry in time-honored techniques that preserve both tradition and flavor. In the Italian Diabetes Cookbook, I honor this tradition with 150 easy-to-prepare, satisfying, and robust Italian dishes that can be enjoyed by the whole family — while helping fine food lovers everywhere achieve their health goals. Inspiration for this book came to me when I visited my ancestral hometown of Crotone, Italy, for the first time. Each recipe includes notes on the history and cultural importance of each dish, and most contain wine pairings — an essential part of any authentic Italian meal! Highlights include: Ricotta, Grilled Eggplant, and Fresh Mint Bruschetta; Whole-Wheat Ziti with Goat Ragu; Swordfish with Olives, Capers, Herbs, and Tomatoes; Red Pepper, Yellow Tomato, and Artichoke Salad; Espresso Panna Cotta; and many more! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a53192f8-2d56-461a-9575-58fd91a8afec/SEL3.jpg HOME - Introducing My Two New Products &amp; 6 Ways to Celebrate Italian Cuisine Week</a> - I am excited to be offering a new online cooking class series with my longtime friend and business partner Chef Sedrick Crawley.

Blueberries are one of America’s favorite fruits – and this is the time of year to enjoy them. When berries are in season, our bodies need more of the specific nutrients that they boost. This post includes 4 great recipes which I recently filmed for Good Morning Washington. Blueberries are low in calories but high in nutrients. Calorie for calorie, this makes them an excellent source of several important nutrients. The blueberry is low in calories but high in fiber, vitamin C and vitamin K. Blueberries are the king of antioxidant foods and have the highest antioxidant capacity of all the popular fruits and vegetables. Flavonoids appear to be the berries’ antioxidant with the greatest impact. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/72129476-0ebd-4224-a6ee-8992ff36a7a6/blu2.jpg HOME - Blueberry beyond breakfast - Because blueberries are high in antioxidants, they can neutralize some of the free radicals that damage your DNA.

The UNESCO protected art of pizza-making is what Neapolitans are most known for, but truth be told, that’s just the tip of the culinary iceberg that this ancient metropolis has to offer. With Stellina's Chef Matteo Venini andMaestro Pizzaiolo Antonio Fusco One of the lesser known edible delights born out of Napoli is Pizza Fritta, or “Fried Pizza,” a tradition that I’ve loved since childhood. For many Italian-Americans, pizza fritta refers to fried pizza dough that is served sweet – topped with powdered sugar. It’s served at carnivals, street festivals, or often after making pizza at home. Sometimes the term is used to refer to fried zeppole, also believed to be the original pizze fritte, which are small pieces of dough, fried and topped with powdered sugar, or at holiday time stuffed with anchovies, fried, and served as an appetizer during holidays. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d53a4d6b-bec6-4d6a-b72b-50a5b11a22ad/pizza3.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Then there’s what the Napoletani refer to as pizza fritta…fried pizza dough which is filled with a variety of savory fillings from classic, high-quality mozzarella and tomatoes to smoked provola, meats, and more. The first time I ever heard about this type of pizza being described was by Sophia Loren, so even though pizze fritte are a quintessential street food – for me they will always conjure up glamorous images of all that is good in Italian food. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/37cbbeff-3cd8-4388-bf0d-447629fbd391/pizza4.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Fast forward a few decades and I attended one of Don Antonio Starita’s pizza-making classes at the Pizza University and Culinary Arts Center and got to taste his pizza fritta. Once you experience something perfectly made by a maestro, the bar of standards on that particular recipe is forever locked in at the top – and there’s no where to go but down. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/80c993d0-44ba-431a-8a5b-37eaf76dc5d5/pizza5.jpg HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Luckily, my second pizza fritta was served to me by Maestro Pizzaiolo Enzo Coccia -while taking his The Culture of Neapolitan Pizza Cooked in a Wood Oven pizzaiolo certification class, also at the Pizza University. The Maestro, who has written books and teaches university courses on pizza-making at the University of Naples, told me that the tradition of frying pizzas was born in the friggitorie, or fry shops, centuries ago. The affordable street food edged it’s way not only into the heart of locals, but in the hearts of prominent literary figures such as Alexander Dumas and historians as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/08fa02d8-9119-4be5-9060-c4d4922fa643/pizza6.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Make it stand out This February my friend, maestro pizzaiolo, and Naples-native Antonio Fusco joined the "From Capri with Love" tour with Ristorante D'Amore's owner Marco D'Amore and Executive Chef Pasquale Rinaldo here in the United States. Antonio's task was to create Montanare and Pizze Fritte for the events we held at the James Beard House in NYC and at Stellina Pizzeria in DC. I had already met Antonio at Ristorante del Pino (a food emporium like none I've ever seen) in Naples where he heads the pizza department prior to his arrival in the states, so I knew I was in for a treat. Antonio is truly committed to his art and stops short of nothing to deliver the best results. His fried pizzas are light and airy - with the perfect combination of fillings that leave you begging for more. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/c4ae7ee2-cd96-4d84-9390-b54ed7c553d5/pizza7.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - A few of Antonio's specialties that he prepared in the US were: Montanara fritta con pomodoro San Marzano e provolone del Monaco Classic, Amalfi-Coast Style Flash-Fried and Baked Pizza with San Marzano Tomatoes and Provolone del Monaco Pizza fritta di Antonio Fusco ricotta romana Provola affumicata pomodoro e pepe nero, Antonio Fusco’s Fried Pizza with Roman Ricotta, Smoked Provolone, tomatoes, and Black Pepper Montanara fritta a quattro mani con carbonara agli agrumi, Pizzaiolo Antonio Fusco’s Flash-Fried and Baked Pizza with Chef Pasquale Rinaldo’s Citrus Infused Carbonara https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/ca0cee90-ca4c-43dd-b002-0059f3a41870/pizza8.png HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Make it stand out Now, thanks to Antonio's fantastic teaching skills, I can recreate the perfect pizza fritta whenever I want to. Like all maestros, Antonio is so dedicated to his craft that through watching him work you learn not only about the pizza he is creating, but of the culture, and pizza that created it. If everyone took as much pride in their work as Antonio did, the world would be a much better place. Try your hand at Antonio Fusco's signature dish with this recipe: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a319059a-125a-4ea4-bc30-92557cffa268/pizza1.jpg HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Make it stand out La città di Napoli ha regalato al mondo molti trionfi gastronomici che il termine "Cucina Napoletana" si riferisce non solo alla cucina della città di Napoli propria, ma dell'intera regione della Campania stessa. L'arte della pizza protetta dall'UNESCO è ciò per cui i napoletani sono più noti, ma a dire la verità questa antica metropoli ha tantissimo da offrire. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/d53a4d6b-bec6-4d6a-b72b-50a5b11a22ad/pizza3.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Una delle delizie di gola napoletane meno conosciute è la Pizza Fritta, una tradizione che ho amato fin dall'infanzia. Per molti italo-americani, la pizza fritta si riferisce ad un impasto per pizza fritto che viene servito dolce - condito con zucchero a velo. Viene servito in carnevali, feste di strada o spesso dopo aver fatto la pizza a casa. A volte il termine è usato per indicare le zeppole fritte, che sono piccoli pezzi di pasta, fritte e condite con zucchero a velo, o durante le vacanze ripiene di acciughe, fritte e servite come antipasto. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/18977933-320d-42dc-922b-2a95770e6557/pizza7.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Poi c'è quello che i Napoletani chiamano pizza fritta ... con l'impasto fritto che viene riempita con una varietà di ripieni salati dalla classica mozzarella e pomodori di alta qualità alla provola affumicata, alle carni e altro ancora. La prima volta che ho mai sentito parlare di questo tipo di pizza descritta da Sophia Loren, quindi anche se la pizza fritta è un cibo di strada per eccellenza - per me evocherà sempre immagini glamour di tutto ciò che è buono nel cibo italiano. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/fcabb28c-bb78-4c40-b2ad-0d40dce39b3d/pizza4.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - L'anno scorso ho partecipato ad una delle lezioni di pizza di Don Antonio Starita alla Pizza University e al Culinary Arts Center e ho avuto modo di assaggiare la sua pizza fritta. Una volta che hai sperimentato qualcosa di perfettamente fatto da un maestro, la barra degli standard su quella particolare ricetta è per sempre bloccata in alto - e non c'è altro posto dove andare se non verso il basso. Fortunatamente, la mia seconda fritta di pizza mi è stata servita dal Maestro Pizzaiolo Enzo Coccia, mentre frequentavo il corso di Cultura della Pizza Napoletana Cotta in un forno a legna di pizzaiolo, sempre alla Pizza University. Il Maestro, che ha scritto libri ed insegna corsi universitari sulla pizza all'Università di Napoli, mi ha detto che la tradizione di friggere le pizze è nata nei friggitorie napoletane, secoli fa. Il cibo di strada a prezzi accessibili si è fatto strada non solo nel cuore della gente del posto, ma anche nel cuore di importanti personaggi letterari come Alexander Dumas e storici. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/bb5a3780-5543-4063-8c54-badaab0cca97/pizza6.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Make it stand out A febbraio il mio amico, maestro pizzaiolo napoletano, Antonio Fusco, è venuto qui negli stati uniti per partecipare nel tour "From Capri with Love" con il proprietario del ristorante D'Amore, Marco D'Amore e lo chef esecutivo Pasquale Rinaldo. Il compito di Antonio era quello di creare Montanare e Pizze Fritte per gli eventi che abbiamo tenuto alla James Beard House a New York e alla Stellina Pizzeria a DC. Avevo già incontrato Antonio al Ristorante del Pino a Napoli prima del suo arrivo negli Stati Uniti, quindi sapevo che avrei un'altra occasione per assaggiare ancora una volta le pizze fritte autentiche e ben fatte! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/edb6dbc0-3836-474f-932a-254e3dfb20e2/pizza11.JPG HOME - Mastering pizza fritta - Antonio è veramente dedicato alla sua arte e si ferma a nulla per offrire i migliori risultati.

After we toasted with her richCaposcuro Rosso wine,we dug into the seemingly normal plates of ravioli presented before us, without any inclination that the little mounds of pasta placed before us would be game-changers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/90237d1d-ecbd-43ba-ae64-b326b96ab440/ravioli4.jpg HOME - Love at first bite: My Ode to Ravioli Capresi</a> - "Where have you been all my life?" and "how come I haven't tasted these before?"

Experiencing each of his creations (trust me, I've had them all, on several occasions), is a richly nostalgic experience. Every forkful of his food calls to mind our most vivid Italian food memories, always respecting the history and culture of each dish, while presenting them in modern and intellectually compelling ways as possible. His version of Ravioli Capresi have helped me set a new standard of what the future of Italian cuisine should be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/fa41be08-7bc9-4cc3-9bf0-60cf94c1f8ed/ravioli12.jpg HOME - Love at first bite: My Ode to Ravioli Capresi</a> - Chef Pasquale proudly featured them as the crowning glory of his Under the Capri Sun dinner at the James Beard House on February 12, 2019 (watch the video here) and again at an event called From Capri with Love at Stellina in Washington, DC on Valentine's Day 2019.

For that reason, large amounts of those same ingredients, play a key role on Easter menus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/b7ac28e2-853c-462b-bae8-ec8d93d0c069/Greek+easter3.JPG HOME - My Greek Easter - Menu and Memories - Greek Easter Bread/Tsourekia This spicy, golden bread is studded with dark red colored eggs which symbolize the blood of Christ. At Easter time, it is traditional for people to play a game by 2 players holding an egg and hitting the egg of their opponent. The one who hits says “Christ has risen” and the other person responds “Truly he has risen”. The cracking of the shell symbolizes Jesus coming out of his grave. This recipe contains all-spice and cinnamon, but mahleb (crushed cherry kernals), ground mastic (gum resin from the island of Chios), and caraway seeds are also traditional.

It's a great resource for people in the DC area. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/24fa3cd4-4790-4d3c-9b3d-b4fc8b31b1b6/Pasqua7.JPG HOME - La mia Pasqua alternativa/My alternative Easter - Metti in risalto Di qualunque cosa si tratti, il modo in cui racconti la tua storia online può fare la differenza. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/031f62ea-0622-4696-8c43-7efbb8d3230d/Pasqua8.jpg HOME - La mia Pasqua alternativa/My alternative Easter - Metti in risalto Di qualunque cosa si tratti, il modo in cui racconti la tua storia online può fare la differenza. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/acf003c1-d862-4af7-9632-0ea3cc87f0c8/Pasqua9.jpg HOME - La mia Pasqua alternativa/My alternative Easter - But most of all, my wish for everyone reading this is that this year, and during these holidays, and in the midst of these challenging times, we are able to count our blessings and celebrate miracles big and small. Below is my Easter menu for this year. Some dishes are traditional and some "alternative" that can be made with a few simple cupboard ingredients.

Instead, salads are usually served at the end of a meal to cleanse the palate, or as part of a series of appetizers when dining out to whet the appetite. Some traditional Italian salads, however, are so satisfying when prepared with fresh, seasonal produce that they could almost be eaten alone. And this one is no exception. If I ever have any of this salad left over, I toss it with hot pasta the following day. 1 pound artichokes, cooked and roughly chopped 12 ounces Roasted Peppers (page 282) 1 pint yellow grape tomatoes 1/3 cup Extra virgin Olive Oil by Chef Amy Riolo 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar (preferably Aceto Balsamico di Modena) or red wine vinegar 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil or flat-leaf parsley 1/4 teaspoon unrefined sea salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1. Combine artichokes, roasted peppers, and grape tomatoes in a large salad bowl or on a platter. Stir. 2. In a small bowl, whisk olive oil into vinegar until emulsified and stir in basil or parsley. 3. Drizzle dressing over vegetables. Taste, and season with salt and pepper. Serve. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/13f2d259-479a-4d67-9d61-58bd81320647/Pasqua16.jpg HOME - La mia Pasqua alternativa/My alternative Easter - Dessert Cassata Siciliana/Sicilian Ricotta-Filled, Marzipan Covered Cake Recipe here (or view my other Italian cakes which make good use of ingredients in your cupboard) https://www.amyriolo.com/web/sapori-di-sicilia-at-stellina monthly 0.5 2023-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/a029139f-67b5-48d1-a739-29ca2df77838/Stellina1.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - "Buon vino, tavola lunga" is an old Italian adage meaning that people are always willing to come to the table when the wine is good. Tonight's wine dinner at Stellina Pizzeria (Washingtonian's 100 Very Best Restaurants Thrillist "DC's Best New Restaurants 2019, Michelin Guide Bib Gourmands) featured Sicilian wines from Firriato which were exceptional. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/00d9866e-8cf5-4a3c-b59f-101271de06bb/Stellina2.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - Marco Scapagnini, whose family owns the Firriato winery explained that Sicily's unique terroir includes seven different kinds of soil; clay, stone, sand, volcanic, silt, chalk, and lime - which help to give the local grapes their distinctive characteristics. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/26c5837b-6c37-47f6-a047-41051e42f2e9/Stellina3.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - In addition, the island offers twelve different micro-climates which are perfect for various types of grapes and flavor profiles. Be sure to check my Instagram stories and feed for more of Marco's fascinating facts throughout this #winewednesday! The award-winning winery also offers dozens of wines in several collections sure to please any palate, style, and budget. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/ecda2380-1a74-4dca-8a25-c8aa969496ab/Stellina4.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - The winery's "zero-impact" certification means that the production of their wines leaves no carbon footprint. They were the first Italian winery to receive this distinction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/4b52fa8e-2f50-4c35-a171-2fffdc938021/Stellina5.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - Equally as impressive as the vini was Chef Matteo Venini's menu. In the restaurant world, we often call wine-pairing menus, "wine-forward" which means that the food almost takes a backseat to the wines - it goes with them, but the wines still shine a little more. Other menus are more "food-forward" meaning that the chef plans the food first, and then the wines are paired with the food. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/dc9c3f35-4f3e-4c1e-adf8-fca8665da167/Stellina6.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - Culturally speaking, we Italians are in a never-ending pursuit to find the perfect compliment between wine and food, so that, the two become even better when enjoyed together. Chef Matteo, along with wine importer and distributor Maurizio Farro of Cantiniere achieved that perfect synergy between the food and wine which, like in any good marriage, allows the couple to shine brighter together than when they are on their own - no matter how great they are as individuals. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/292cde02-5dda-4abb-9859-b8ab29e78d2f/Stellina7.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - It's worth noting that tonight's dishes themselves where not items normally found on Stellina's menu, nor were they 100% traditional - meaning that Chef Matteo went way above and beyond his duty to create his updated interpretations of the dishes. Some of you may remember my Pasta alla Norma from my cookbooks, or how I made it with my Greek culinary tour travelers in Ikaria after taking them to see the opera "Norma" in Athens. The eggplant, tomato, and ricotta pasta is a family favorite, and therefore I take it very seriously. Chef Matteo's "La Norma" alla Stellina was an eggplant cannolo filled with sheeps' milk ricotta and cherry tomato sauce wrapped in a fried angel -hair pasta cone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/243995e6-db20-4a5d-89e9-60f9d55e2128/Stellina8.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - This dish paired perfectly with the Etna Bianco "Le Sabbie dell'Etna" 2018 from Firriato which is made in 100% volcanic soil. This course showed Chef Matteo's ability to not only pair dishes with wine well, but also his innovative streak which inspires him to create new dishes using innovative techniques while pairing wines and balancing flavors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/95cc4d67-55a8-4090-937b-bbb2c125eefc/Stellina9.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - The next dish was Pasta con Sarde- an iconic Sicilian dish that Chef Matteo put his own spin on by using home made chitarra pasta. This dish can be tricky to pair, because it contains marinated sardines and fennel (both have strong, distinct flavors) as well as lemon (Italians never pair citrus with wine). For many people, the highlight of the night was this pasta dish paired with the Perricone "Soria" 2016. Everyone agreed that while great on their own, both the wine and the pasta tasted better when enjoyed together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/2097ebfc-f24d-417c-8313-abc1166152d0/Stellina10.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - The main course, "Sapori di Sicilia" or "Flavors of Sicily" - a tender, satisfying, roasted octopus with pistachios, blood oranges, sea urchin, and chickpea puree combined many of the island's most beloved ingredients on a plate. The Syrah "Altavilla della Corte" 2015 echoed the important notes that each element contained and proved that red wine and seafood can be a match made in heaven. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/2e9873bc-3802-4e33-9623-969b8354b34e/Stellina11.JPG HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - The finale of the evening was "il classico cannolo" ...the classic cannoli...stuffed with sheeps' milk ricotta from Sicily -the shells are fried to perfection and filled just before serving as tradition mandates. My favorite wine of the evening was the Passito "L'Ecru" 2014 that it was paired with. Passito is made with zibibbo grapes which are naturally dried and then pressed into a very light, slightly floral sweet wine which, due to its characteristically complex terroir, is the best I've ever tasted. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/287731af-c99b-40ea-88ec-41ca4ea6a626/Stellina12.jpg HOME - “Sapori di Sicilia” at Stellina - In my media interviews, I often get asked which cuisine of the Mediterranean I would pick - if I could only pick one to enjoy for the rest of my life. I hate that question because even though my heritage is Southern Italian, I could not live without the cuisine of each of the countries of the region which I have come to know and love as much as my own. But if forced to choose, I always say, I would choose the cuisine of Sicily. Since it's the largest island in the Mediterranean, its' flavors represent the entire region more than any other one place. The next time I get asked that question I will respond the same way, but I will add..."and I would pair the foods of Sicily with Firriato wines because they are the ultimate accompaniment to the foods that the lush culinary microcosm has to offer." https://www.amyriolo.com/web/377tgbhwos0vx71u27q6y3bc6ebpxm monthly 0.5 2023-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/eb2c0a2c-58b5-46ac-87d4-d1c3aca0ca76/ikaria+4.JPG HOME - Live Longer, Better with Blue Zone Cuisine - Metti in risalto Di qualunque cosa si tratti, il modo in cui racconti la tua storia online può fare la differenza. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/59f1bb79-10c1-449e-a357-9e7821eb22d7/Pita.jpg HOME - Live Longer, Better with Blue Zone Cuisine - PITA BREAD https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/dd0555b4-d8fd-4738-b777-2db5bf995df6/tzatziki.jpg HOME - Live Longer, Better with Blue Zone Cuisine - CUCUMBER AND YOGURT SALAD7TZATZIKI Cucumber and Yogurt Salad/Tzatziki https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/91f98a1b-dca5-417b-ab3c-9701469df43d/amy+village.jpg HOME - Live Longer, Better with Blue Zone Cuisine - VILLAGE SALAD WITH FETA/CHORIATIKI SALATA Recipe from The Ultimate Mediterranean Diet Cookbook. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/644edce5eb88f470b5984a92/56386dce-1eac-40fa-8894-6f85796feec4/dandelion.jpg HOME - Live Longer, Better with Blue Zone Cuisine - SAUTÉED DANDELION GREENS/HORTA This is one of the most nutritious antioxidant-boasting combination of foods possible.
