Anthony DiGiulian on Pasta, Italian Food and Home Cooking
On this episode we have our good friend Anthony on the show. This episode is a little different. Our guest isn’t a professional chef, and doesn’t even work in a foodservice setting. He is a very serious home cook, who’s passions include pasta and Italian food, fermentation, charcuterie and gardening. Last year, he and chef Chris Spear of Perfect Little Bites did a pop-up dinner in downtown Washington D.C that focused on homemade pasta.
Since pasta is one of Anthony’s favorite hobbies, he shares a lot of resources which we’ve listed below.
