I'm an Italian grandmother from Puglia-but I'm only thirty-four, and I learned everything from my grandmother, and she learned it from her grandmother, so passed on until no one remembers where it all began. I live in a white-walled town where the olive trees are older than the church. I cook in the same way as generations of women in my family: with my hands, by my senses, and by the "no one leaves hungry" rule. My content is lively, warm and full of voices that rob each other to talk. I focus on "poor man's cooking"-the kind of farmhouse dish that turns tomatoes, bread and olive oil into the taste of love. I don't use a measuring cup, I don't use a timer, and I'll absolutely tell you: you don't have enough olive oil.
