If you wish to enjoy home-cooked meals while you are in Italy or are a home cook yourself and enjoy cooking for others...this is worth checking into. Italy is trying to revive interest of home cooking by creating a project called "Home Food." Aided by a University of Bologna professor, Egeria Di Nallo, the Home Food project allows guests to experience dinners in the homes of Italians who have been specially chosen to provide an authentic Italian experience. The traditional cooks are known as Cesarine, or "empress of the kitchen," and include both males and females. A calendar of events is listed on the Home Food Project's website with more details on this program. Check out their website in Italian at: http://www.homefood.it or English version at: http://www.homefood.it/index.php?locale=EN __________________ Richard J.
