A few hours earlier, they had never made this before.
Then came the flour on the table, a few imperfect first attempts, lots of questions, a little laughter⦠and that wonderful moment when their hands finally understood what to do.
Thatās what I love about cooking together.
Youāre not just learning an Italian recipe.
Youāre learning the gestures behind it, the little tricks you wonāt find written in the recipe, and the traditions that have been passed from one kitchen to another for generations.
And then, of course, comes my favorite part:
Sitting down together, opening a bottle of w**e, and eating everything youāve just made.
The only kind of homework everyone is happy to do. šš®š¹
