Next Stop: Liguria

Your trip to Italy begins in Liguria, a region known for its beautiful colourful villages and rocky coasts overlooking the sea. An emblems of this region are the famous villages of the “Cinque Terre” (“Five Lands”), now Unesco heritage, which were given this name because their position once made them accessible only from the sea.

first ingredient
FUSILLI

You will never forget this type of pasta

Durum wheat grown, milled and processed directly by the same company for over 3 generations and selected cereals with high protein content make this pasta an excellence of our territory that we have chosen to share with you. This pasta is beautiful to look at and good to taste, it's the emblem of the best Italian tradition.
second ingredient
ZUCCHINI PESTO

A Pesto you have never tasted.

Although the official recipe dates back to the mid-1800s, pesto quickly became the symbol of Ligurian cuisine and one of the most loved Italian condiments in the world, characterised by its unmistakable fresh basil aroma. Pesto production has inspired many creations with different vegetables: here we bring you the courgette version, which has a fresh and light taste

The essentials are in!

Do not forget about salt and pepper!

In each My Cooking Box you find all the ingredients that you need in order to prepare the recipe: even essentials products such as salt and oil!

third ingredient
OIL
Our oil is produced in the center of Puglia region, among centuries-old olive groves in an old mill born in the early 1900s, where the art of milling has been handed down for three generations. The hand-picked Apulian olives, the washing, the crushing with stone millstones and the cold extraction give birth to this extra virgin olive oil with a delicate taste.
fourth ingredient
SALT
A quick journey to Trapani has made us see the historical “Saline di Galia”, which is located amongst the natural reserves of Trapani and Paceco. Here the salt is processed according to the rituals of the past, respecting the natural times of crystallization of this mineral, essential for our dishes in the cooking.

I had never thought to taste something so delicious from a product taken in the supermarket. It was like eating at the restaurant and my boyfriend was amazed by the taste of the PESTO SICILIANO! Definitely looking for the other one... you saved my dinner!

My fav Country in one box!

I was convinced by the pretty package and then I felt in love! Ingredients are all in the right dose and you just need to add water and… yourself! My Italian cousins would be proud of me.

Sophia

Last time we relied on memories - and I won't hide the fact that I shed a tear 🥲 Today instead we are talking about food sustainability, which as you may have guessed, is very close to our hearts 💚 Did you know that one third of all food that is still edible ends up in the trash? I also made the same expression as you when I read that 😨 That's why with my team we study the recipe in great detail and weigh every single ingredient to perfection. Oh yes, even oil, salt and pepper! This means zero waste and zero stress as well. #mycookingbox #mycookingboxca #mealkit #italianmealkit #italianfood #zerowaste #nofoodwaste #italianfood #sustainability
Do you know what day is it today? Actually I didn't know either, but scrolling through the news items I read "World Cocktail Day" 🍸 Whenever I hear the word Cocktail I only think of one thing: Apertivo. For us Italians there is no Sunday without aperitivo, which by now the younger ones just call "ape". 🍹 Aperitivo is a real lifestyle, a mood of relaxation and fun. I still remember my first aperitivo when I was 10 years old in Bergamo center with my parents and brother. 2 Spritz, an orange juice and a pineapple juice, all strictly accompanied by some traditional finged food. Well yes, you start at a young age to learn about aperitivo culture and fall in love with it 💞 And speaking of aperitifs, I really think I am going to organize one with my family this evening. But before that, I leave you with 3 things you absolutely must know about Italian aperitivo. You find them in the stories 😎 👉 Are you curious to know more about it? Let me know in the comments (and write the name of your favorite cocktail) #mycookingbox #mycookingboxca #italianaperitivo #aperitif #italianfoodculture #italianstyle #spritz #worldcocktailday
As agreed, today we are talking about our Cellentani with Sicilian pesto 🍅🍆🧀 Cellenatani is a type of pasta that resembles to a ribbed tube and then folded on itself, similar to a curl. It is also a tubular pasta shape, so it's perfect with sauce 🍝 Have you tried them before? Let me know ☟🏻 #mycookingbox #mycookingboxca #mealkit #italianmealkit #italianfood #pastalovers #cellentani
🌱 Basil means summer, sea and "pasta fredda" at the beach to me My aunt always kept a seedling of it on the balcony at the beach house and used it as a nice touch in her zucchini pesto (the one we talked about a while back of course). In the morning, together with mom, they would wake up early to prepare the lunch we would eat at the beach. There was never a shortage of "pasta fredda", sandwiches and lots of fresh fruit. Now when I go to the beach - in memory of those times 🥹 - I always prepare a good "pasta fredda" to take to the beach for my little Ludo who, like me, is fond of zucchini pesto 👩‍👧 What is never missing in your beach bag? I'm so curious about it 😎 #mycookingbox #mycookingboxca #mealkit #italianmealkit #italianfood #italianstyle #basil
But do you know how pasta was born? If you don't, then we'll tell you 🍝 It is said that pasta dates back as far as 1000 B.C. and everyone was fond of it. We would say that nothing has changed since then ⏳ This food comes from the mixture of two raw elements: flour and water, but it's all about the format. Some people love fusilli, some others are crazy about spaghetti and when it comes to us, well, we love them all! 💗 Alright, now that we've told you a little bit about ourself and pasta, we'll get back to our business and remind you that in our My Cooking Boxes you can find fusilli and cellentani. Which format do you prefer? Let us know! 👇 #mycookingbox #mycookingboxca #mealkit #italianfood #pastalovers #pastaformats #foodielife #canadianfoodies #italianmealkit #italianpasta
