My Italian American Kitchen: Pizza to Pastries
Hey! I’m Marie, and there’s nowhere I’d rather be than in my kitchen, cooking or baking up something delicious. Over the years, I’ve fallen in love with everything from baking fresh bread to simmering hearty soups and making the perfect pizza.
Growing up in an Italian family around Philly and NYC definitely shaped the way I cook – those amazing food memories from childhood just never leave you!
Whether you’re just starting to explore making things in your kitchen or you’ve been cooking for years, I’d love to share some recipes with you. There’s always something new to learn and create.
Take a look around and enjoy!
