Join me on my upcoming tour, Culinary Adventures in Puglia, Italy! Puglia is a less well-known area of Italy at the heel of the boot, though in recent years it has been discovered by more travelers. This is a fertile land, perfect for olive groves and semolina fields. We will stay in elegant Baroque buildings and taste high-quality, freshly caught fish and seafood. Puglia is full of cultural sights which we will visit while we’re not cooking in the kitchens of talented Italian chefs.

It is a Jewish tradition to eat fried foods on Chanukah to commemorate the miracle of the oil lamps in the reconsecrated Second Temple that burned for eight days. The nostalgic aroma of potato latkes frying in oil is a warm bath in the best memories of the holiday of Chanukah, the Festival of Lights. My grandfather would make latkes for all six of his kids and their families when we all gathered for Chanukah. Needless to say, we ate a lot of latkes.

The word latke comes from the Yiddish by way of an East Slavic word oladya for a small fried pancake and ultimately from an Ancient Greek word for olive oil. These days, cooks make latkes from ingredients like zucchini, carrots, sweet potatoes, celery root, and winter squash and may fry them in olive oil or a mixture of oils like I do.

Aquacotta, or “cooked water,” is a classic Tuscan soup from the Maremma region, once a humble, one-pot meal for shepherds and charcoal makers. This soup, thickened with stale bread, was traditionally made with simple ingredients such as water, onion, tomato, olive oil, and whatever vegetables were on hand. Today, it is made with fresh market veggies, poached eggs, and Pecorino cheese all of which I like to purchase from the Farmer’s Market.

Maremma, the site of my first-ever culinary/cultural tour, is a unique and beautiful agritourism destination with Etruscan ruins, natural hot springs, and famous wines. Use this link, https://conta.cc/4hErFm7 to try this recipe at home and let me know what you think.

Are you a little bored with your cooking? Do you want to learn more about how to use spices for flavor and health benefits but don’t know where to start? I will be hosting a fragrant talk and demo with Penn’s Village Thursday, November 14 at 3 pm. Swing by and learn how to identify, taste, and use spices.

We’ll learn to make an Indian tarka (fried spice blend) for dal (soft-cooked split lentils), use a spice blend from Portugal for sauteed shrimp, and make a Moroccan sweet spiced compound butter for baked apples.

Tickets are $15 for Penn’s Village members and $20 for non-members. Register online with this link as space is limited: https://www.pennsvillage.org/content.aspx?page_id=4091&club_id=982103&item_id=2417344

I traveled to Portugal this spring and fell in love with this dish. It’s a spicy Portuguese shrimp Mozambique recipe I discovered while I was there. With blends of spices and peppers, this shrimp recipe does not disappoint. Take a trip into Portugal's past and taste a legacy of flavor with this dish. Check out the recipe here and also in the link in my instagram bio to make this dish at home.

Make my Cretan Dakos recipe, one of the best dishes of late summer! The fun thing about this recipe is that it's all in the assembly, and requires no cooking. You will start with juicy, ripe, never-refrigerated tomatoes and dress it with a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil. Put this atop a piece (pieces) of barley rusks. Once assembled, top with a combination of feta and ricotta cheese. Don’t forget to finish it with some capers and oregon (greek if you have!), and you’re all done!

Here is another video from my culinary demonstration at the Acorn Club! During this video I am making a great appetizer from the legendary Greek island of Santorini: Tomato Fritters with Tzatziki. This one is especially fun to take advantage of late season ripe garden tomatoes before they are gone until next summer!

When it comes to finding a place to stay while traveling abroad, the many options can feel overwhelming. That’s why I’ve compiled some tips to help you find the hotel that works for you!

A 3-4 star hotel located next to public transport in a busy area is great and can make you feel comfortable walking alone. Especially with boutique hotels which make you feel more like a guest and less like a room number.

Before booking, make sure to look on TripAdvisor and review the comments, but take them with a grain of salt. I usually check for features the hotel offers that might not be listed on the website.

When booking, be sure to book directly from the hotel website. They will take notice and appreciate it greatly.

Pictured here is my Pissaladiere Nicoise, which I am happy to say I’ve been making for friends and family for over 50 years.

This dish is usually served as an appetizer by cutting it into smaller pieces like pizza. However, Pissaladiere is far older than pizza, and dates all the way back to 879 when the first recipe was found in Provence.

In my recipe I make it with savory tart dough, as it’s easier to prepare ahead of time, and it serves about 12 people. Click here https://alizagreen.com/pissaladiere-nicoise/ or see the link in my instagram bio to try to make this delicious recipe!
