Alessandra's Food is Love - Italian Cooking Channel- Italian Cuisine.
Welcome to Alessandra's Food is Love - We believe Food is love and sharing it with loved ones is the greatest gift in life. - it's a way to connect with loved ones, nurture our bodies, and bring joy to our lives.
About me-
My name is Alessandra and I was born in Vico Equense, Naples. Vico Equense is a coastal town located between Pompeii and Sorrento. The area is called Peninsula Sorrentina. I live in the United States and travel to Italy every year.
I started my cooking channel so that I can pass on the recipes to my daughters. One day they’ll be able to carry on the traditions with authentic recipes I’ve learned from my Nona, mom, and aunts.
I hope all my recipes will bring you back to the foods you love and the memories of the past with Nona in the kitchen.
Grazie e buon appetito
Alessandra.

Walking through the streets of Vico Equense you could smell the sweet aroma of pastiera making in the homes. Everyone claims to have the best recipe but if you taste a hundred of them they’ll all be a little different. It’s a dessert that’s gifted so in Easter Sunday you’ll probably have at least 4 from different makers. I still remember as a little girl how after a big, big Easter meal there w...

I never understand the reason to rinse the eggplant as you are only adding moisture after you've worked so hard to remove the liquid by salting. I salt my eggplant for 30 minutes then pat the eggplant dry. Never have I rinsed it and my dishes are never too salty. I really enjoy your shows.
I really enjoyed this video. Suscribed! I will definately try this recipe as pan fried calamari is one of my favorite appetizers to get in restaurants.
Alessandra: I made the cake today and the custard part came out great but the sponge cake did not come out that great. I followed your advice instructions as I followed you in your video. It was not too fluffy. What could have possibly have happened. Please advise.
@@IsabelBruno-k9q hello Isabel,Sorry to hear that. Were the eggs at room temperature? Is the mixer powerful? It’s of air needs to be incorporated when whipping otherwise it will not rise. Please let me know. I’m here if you have any other questions. Thank you for watching. 💕💕💕
Yes, I have a powerful mixer and yes, the eggs were at room temperature.
@@alessandrasfoodislove Yes, I do have a powerful mixer and yes the eggs were at room temperature.

🍽 YUM Thank you for this recipe 🍷Salute'
My pleasure 😊thank you so much for watching.
@@louski5844 buon appetito!!
I’m salivating here! So easy to make and I’m sooo glad you’re using Mutti products! I found them from another channel and have had to scour the markets to find them. We need more of this product. Great tomatoes whether whole, crushed, puréed or pasata. No acidity, no sweetness, no bitterness, just right to flavor it your own way! 4stars!! Some stores price them too high but I find them in Ocean State stores for a great price. ❤❤❤❤
@@gizmo7877 thank you so much!! So agree with you on the Mutti products and I also love that they’re priced fair. Thank you so so much for watching. 💕
Definitely making this! Are you using a low moisture whole milk mozzarella or fresh and if using fresh do you drain some of the liquid out first? Looks delicious!
Thank you so much. I like a fresh mozzarella but keep it in the fridge overnight to dry up a little. Costco also sells a great mozzarella that i find amazing to cook with. It's a 1 Lb ball for about $4.50. Hope you find it.
@@alessandrasfoodislove Great! I am always in Costco and will look for that!
@@jackiewalsh6678 I’ll get you the name next time I go. It’s a red and black label.
