Mediterranean Cuisine: The Wisdom of Our Grandparents

Mediterranean cuisine smells of ripe tomatoes, basil, and freshly pressed olive oil. In this section, I bring you the best of Mediterranean food: dishes like escalivada, fried fish, zucchini cream soup, or eggplant with honey. This is traditional Mediterranean cooking, the kind our grandparents knew, the kind that tastes good without any fancy gimmicks.

How about cooking with the ingredients we have on hand? Well, that's what the Mediterranean is all about: fresh produce, lots of vegetables, fish, and a generous drizzle of olive oil. I'll teach you simple recipes, full of flavor and history, so you can fill your table with light and joy. Grab a good loaf of bread and a pinch of salt, and let's get started. Grandpa Antonio invites you to take a stroll along the coast without leaving your kitchen.
