Cooking with Fresh Produce

Yes, we are very fanatic about food. Sometimes people from abroad do not really get why it can take us ages to prepare a meal.

Let me start with saying, that for Italians what really matters is the quality of our food that they we are going to ingest. Eating is not at all a procedure of stomach filling but much more a celebration, pleasure for our body and mind. A sharing experience. A chance to talk and to enjoy life. First of all, it has to be healthy, this means the origin, freshness, taste – quality of the ingredients are very important.

Spring of sparkling water

Posted onJune 4, 2016July 10, 2016

Rome is the city of water. You may notice it from the hundreds of fountains in town. The tap water in Rome is drinkable everywhere you go and I used
to love it.
However, since I found a natural spring of mineral water I changed I love sparkling water more. There is a font, and it is not the only one, which gives out a natural, slightly sparkling water and the taste is amazing. Since I discovered it, and started to drink it I can’t be without it. Quite often, because we drink so much of it, I go to this “off the beaten track” spring to collect water for my family. The place is not so near and it takes me a couple of hours by car but it’s really worth it. This is the water I drink at home and this is what I serve to all my guests in my home, at my table!
