It was so fun to talk to a fellow homesteader and mama who shares my love for cozy winter cooking. My new friend, Vea Carpi, is a farmer, cook, wife, mother, and restaurant owner in the Italian Alps. In this conversation, she shares all about her unlikely story of becoming a homesteader and what she is currently cooking and serving in her restaurant and home. I came away from this conversation with so many new ideas to try in my own kitchen, and I hope you will find some inspiration too.
In this episode, we cover:
- What lead Vea to start a restaurant out of her home
- What Vea is serving in her farm-to-table restaurant and in her home
- A creative way to use kitchen scraps to flavor future dishes
- Italians’ simple approach to food
- A variety of traditional Italian dishes and techniques that you could easily incorporate into your own kitchen
