I READ THAT YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF A FOODBLOGGER FROM "TROUBLE". BESIDES THE PLAY ON WORDS, IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU ARE REALLY SKILLED AT COOKING! WHEN DID YOU START COOKING SERIOUSLY?

I have always had a passion for cooking but perhaps "never practiced it". I have always preferred eating rather than cooking, and my size proves it!
Jokes aside, I have always seen good food in my house: from my grandmothers who practiced home cooking but with old traditions, up to my mother who, despite the work, he managed to prepare amazing lunches and dinners every day. The first experiments in the kitchen date back to his university days where, at home with others 4 Boys, I often tried my hand at pseudo recipes to sustain ourselves!

The adventure got "serious" (so to speak) when due to a work crisis, I stayed home often. Having to prepare the cooking earlier due to a small child and my wife working late gave me the idea for the blog. Naturally I couldn't aspire to much since there are so many bloggers who cook very well. I then thought of dedicating myself to people like me, the “husbands in panic”.

It's those people (husbands, single, fiancés) who have never set foot in the kitchen who want to try their hand at cooking. Very simple recipes, often with "adjusted" raw materials that can give inspiration to those who find themselves in difficulty. Of course, every now and then I dabble in some less simple recipes, but trying to simplify the process.

WHEN YOU GO ABROAD, WHAT ATTITUDE DO YOU HAVE TOWARDS OTHER CUISINES?

I'm sincere, I traveled very little. And I'm sorry about that. I would very willingly do it, but it's not easy to reconcile everything.
Naturally, when I had the opportunity, I always tried to taste new flavors, typical and local flavours. This is more so since I opened the blog.
Before I went "by nose" and, if something was out of my favor, I avoided her. Today I'm curious about everything, from the ingredients to the process. I think it's one of the beautiful things about "travelling".

AN ANECDOTE ABOUT A PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL DISH OF YOURS AND AN ABSOLUTELY DISASTROUS ONE?

The most successful dish is undoubtedly that of the "lasagne cupcakes", a finger food reinterpretation of lasagna. I sent it for fun for a cooking competition and found myself among the finalists. Thanks to this competition I took a trip to Liguria, in the splendid Camogli, where with the other two finalists I made the recipe in the hotel that had organized the live streaming contest. Well, my dish won first prize!
A disastrous one?! Many actually, but what I remember most vividly is "grandmother's cake"! I had prepared too much cream for the filling and, instead of using the right amount, I gave it all. It was a cream and cherry filling. The result was wonderful but, when I tried to take the cake out of the mold, the pastry didn't hold enough and I found myself with all the filling on the ground!
In fact, on the site I only put a shot of it fresh out of the oven... then I couldn't photograph it! Now that I think about it, Maybe it's time to redo it to take better photos!

What do you do to make your life more ecological?

I definitely don't do my best. Everything can be improved and if I think about it I realize that I do very little.
As far as cooking is concerned, I try to use seasonal fruit and vegetables, where possible of course. For dishes we have been using ecological soaps for a long time.
We have eliminated plastic bottles to take to the office or school for eco-friendly reusable bottles.
I try not to waste anything on the contrary, I often give new life to my daughter's leftovers. Many recipes that are on the blog are made to use up leftover food.
Living in a town by the sea, at least in the summer, I avoid taking the car to go for walks or bike rides on our cycle path.
