CUCINA POVERA: The Art of Making Do With What You’ve Got

The Italians call it l’arte dell’arrangiarsi—the art of making do with what you’ve got. They’ve been cooking this way for centuries, a unique approach to ingredients and techniques known as cucina povera, or peasant cooking, that results in the highest expression of what Italian food is all about—transforming simple components into unforgettably delicious and satisfying meals. It’s also a way of cooking that, with some notable exceptions like minestrone, ribollita, and pasta e fagioli, is not well known outside of Italy. Author Giulia Scarpaleggia is determined to change that. She’s a Tuscan home cook, food writer, and cooking teacher who is working to teach people about the soul-satisfying humble food of her native country. Join MOFAD for a virtual lunch hour with Cucina Povera author Giulia Scarpaleggia and internationally acclaimed food writer Regula Ysewijn. They’ll be discussing the ingenious culinary traditions of Giulia’s culture and the resourcefulness of the strong Italian women who came before her. Giulia leads a demo of her recipe for Pappa al Pomodoro (tomato and bread soup), her ultimate comfort food, and a very representative dish of the principles of cucina povera.
