Cerca di eliminare la panna non è che in Italia sia così tanto amata ….
As a german, I must say that Italy is culinary heaven.
As Italian, yes I know UwU
As a Italian, I say that Germany has many tasty dishes
@@maik89able beh, BEH
@@giochiapro3011 evidentemente non siete mai stati in Germania a mangiare piatti tipici. Non parlo di certo della pizza con l'ananas
thank you, sir.
Katie: "How i eat in Italy."
Me: "If you're eating in Italy, then you're eating good, no question about it, doesn't matter what it is."
Can't argue with that!
words of wisdom
"There is a lot of really specific sweets that are for a specific day, for a specific time of the year..." Yeah, we are simple people, we just like eating. All the time.
A crucial part of enjoying this sweets is the really right time when it supposed to be eaten, the Pandoro at july won't be the same as christmas holidays.
Wow this is fascinating! When most of us think of Italian cuisine we think of pizza and pasta... but you teach us that there's so much more than that!
You're so right. I love discovering all the everyday eats. But yes, there's still plenty of pizza and pasta to go around!
I'm sorry but as an Italian I have to say that those people who think that Italian cuisine is made only of pasta and pizza, simply means that they do not know the Italian cuisine !
PS: and I say more.... even we Italians do not know all the Italian cuisine ! Also because there is NOT a single Italian cuisine, but there are so many Italian regional cuisines. Traveling around Italy from north to south, including the islands, we discover new things every time !
Also it changes so much from an area to another to the point that it almost feels like having an exotic meal if you eat something typical of another region 😃
Oh god! I’m Italian and Spaghetti and pasta are just food known around the world! As baguette in France or Hamburgher in USA.
And we don't use that much garlic as americans believe!!! 😂
Fennel, orange, taggiasche olives and a little bit of olive oil. That’s my heaven
yummmmm
try to look for "sweet " gorgonzola. It is the creamier, less seasoned version of it. it's the best thing ever!
Se proprio del nord
When I saw the zeppole I started to cry! I am a pugliese (from Altamura) living in New Zealand! I haven’t been home for almost 3 years! I really like your channel, the way you describe your life in Puglia shows how much you love it! Thanks for showing how beautiful Puglia is!
Fantastico. I love your style on camera, so relatable. I have lived in a small village in southern Italy for three years, but on the opposite coast, the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is magical! The people have welcomed me, helping me to learn Italiano, correcting my pronunciation, which I welcome. You are so entertaining. My refrigerator is similar to yours, molto formaggio, olives, fresh organic vegetables grown by my friends on their land. The cost of living is so affordable! The adventures so numerous. I look forward to seeing more of your channel. Take care, stay safe and heathy. Ciao, ciao.
Thanks for following along. Life is a great adventure here!
Love it!! Can’t wait for the book! Thanks for the tour! It all looked amazing!!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Love it! Planning on relocating to Italy soon and this is great information
Love the cheese exploration! And the natural way of the fridge tour was fun!
I think my favorite thing about your videos is the foods/combos j wouldn't have heard of before!
Yay! Thank you!
I am enjoying watching this videos so so much!!
Thanks so much for another super fun (educational) well done video Katie. Keep 'em coming - it's the only way I can be Italy at the moment so living vicariously through you ... :-)
Thanks so much! 😊 Glad to take you all on this crazy adventure in this crazy time.
Gotta say, never thought a frig tour would be so fascinating! And I learned sooo much! Will save what’s left of vegetable trimmings for stock starting pronto. And oh my! That fennel, orange and olive salad -- taking notes!
I aim to please ;) Thanks for always watching!!!
Italy,as are Greece and France where I used to live, is blessed with farmer market's which, to me, is like pure heaven. Now I live in a Mediterranean county (Island) which is unfortunately very westernized, meaning that small grocery shops and markets are out of business and replaced by huge supermarkets packed with processed food, fruit and vegetables which is stored days and days in fridges because everything needs to be shipped from other countries. I enjoy these kind of videos immensely. Pure Bliss.
When my mom made purée di fave, ricotta forte was always added to the plate. So yummy. Thanks for sharing your refrigerator.
Some excellent fridge tips, thanks!
You bet! Thanks for watching.
The "peperoncino" comes from a region called Calabria. It is right next to Basilicata (so quite close to Puglia as well) and Calabria is known in Italy for being the region of peperoncino and spicy stuff. I come from Calabria and I suggest you to try a thing called 'nduja, which is typical. It's known all over Italy and you can put it on pizza or just spread it on a slice of bread.
Of course there are countless things in Calabria, just like the other regions. 😉
You're killing me! I miss Europe so much and am so jealous of your existence 😍
Ha! I thought my dad was the only one who kept batteries in the fridge!! You are not alone!! Love your channel! Ciao!🤗🤗
Aww thank you! Glad to know I'm not the only one who grew up with batteries in the fridge!
Love seeing the stock drawer! We have a “broth bag” which is a gallon ziplock we keep in the freezer where I stash onion skins, carrot tops, celery tops, etc. I can boil it and still compost after so it cuts down on food waste :)
"broth bag" is a great name. hahaha. Thanks for watching!
wow I have never heard of fennel-orange-olive salad & will def need to try it!!
it's SO good!
You are adapting very well to the territory by looking at the fridge! Let's hope in the "zona gialla": to the north you have the salt flats with flamingos (I don't think it's the migration season, however) and the Gargano, and then all of Salento to the south to explore.
Oh man I really wanna go see the flamingoes. Can't wait for gialla! We're one of the few still in arancione.
@@TheQKatie Hopefully in the next week. Maybe for Valentine's Day you and Connor will be able to take a trip out of town. I sincerely hope so.
Your fridge tour is the next best thing to being there🤪
Hahaha. Doing my best to represent all of Italy in one fridget tour ;)
That fennel dish looks amazing and easy to prepare!
It's so good! I think I make it at least once a week. Thanks for the comment
And yet, move 100KM to the north, and people would look at you sideways just for suggesting it.
The food you'll eat in italy varies a lot from region to region.
Buongiorno..or buonosera actually !! Soooo..my fam and I just moved to Napoli and we get siracha right here on base!!!! Just throwing that out there! Love the videos❤️ I’m trying to binge but the wifi isn’t the best🥺..so your videos are definitely a treat🥰
So jealous! We ordered two big bottles that should last us for a bit... hopefully ;) Thanks for watching!
We keep ginger root in the freezer. It keeps a long time and it's so easy to grate right from the freezer.
Ciao!
your channel is so nice and so are you,I' m really enjoying your videos!
Just one little advice: you should try stracchino, it' s a soft itaian cheese; I miss it so much as I live in the UK
Your Italian sounds just perfect.
Hi Katie! You can find the siracha at Chinese markets here in Veneto region...some smaller foreign supermarkets carry it We have a lot of stores in Padua :). Welcome to Italy! I have lived here with my Italian husband for 7 years...and am an American dietitian. Great job on your video.
Good to know! thanks for watching!
I live in Sicily and the orange and fennel salad is eaten with walnuts instead of black olives. However I believe the traditional recipe uses smoked kippers (aringhe).
Uhhh che buona
What salad dressing do you use ?
@@claudiam2541 just good extra virgin olive oil, sea alt and freshly ground pepper. The secret is in the simplicity 😉😋
@@michelacain5484 thank you !
I am in love with everything in your fridge!😍 well except for the tofu. Cheers🍷 Thank you for the delicious tour! And I do not put batteries in the fridge..
More tofu for me then ;) Thanks for watching! I think maybe the batteries thing is just a weird quirk i inherited from my mom and dad...
A friend of mine made me taste another version of that salad with oranges fenel shrimps and just a smaller amount of olive taggiasche... It was love at first bite 😋😋😋 Since we share the same obsession for fresh cheese, my favorite one is robiola! Maybe you already know It, but if you don't you must try it!
Love, love, love this video! Keep them coming 😍
Couple questions:
1) where is the video where you talked about the egg guy?
2) why are your eggs in the fridge?
3) maple syrup, how long can you keep it for? I’ve normally thrown so much because it’s passed the date on the tin.
4) may you do a video about prices of food in Puglia v London (v NYC) please? Even comparing the supermarkets Waitrose and Tesco to Conad and Despar.
1) Hiya! it's at the end of this one. 2) Ugh I know, I know. I never figured out how to fully commit to the UK/Euro style or stick with the american. If you look closely, some of the eggs are actually outside, next to the fridge, but the other ones are in it. I'm all over the place. 3) No clue! It usually lasts a while, but with the amount of sourdough pancakes I make with my leftover discard, we use the stuff pretty quickly 4) Great Idea! adding it to the list.... Thanks for always watching!
@@TheQKatie Thank you so much for answering all those questions!! Yeah I saw the eggs outside 🙈
I come from Andria, close to Trani (I recognized it soon!) and...I like your fridge!! The inside I mean :D
Grazie!
I'm from Emilia-Romagna and I don't know if in the south it's all local mini markets, but in the north of Italy we have big malls, some of them even like wallmart so you can definitely find everything (or almost) you're looking for
Guarda che non andiamo in giro a dorso di cammello, qui al sud, eh. Per fortuna o sfortuna, anche qui è pieno di centri commerciali enormi. Cosi' come anche al nord ci sono botteghe, caseifici, contadini e mercati rionali dove acquistare prodotti genuini e di qualità
Obviously there are big markets and big malls in the south too 🤣🙈
@Nicola Bruni are you serious?
C'è anche la televisione?
0:20 Great Katie! You've already learnt that "MMEH!" typical of Barese dialect! 😂😍😂😍!
hahaha totally on purpose ;)
@@TheQKatie yeah great! 😎👍
I like you videos. From Boston USA ! Thanks
Yes! Batteries in the frig, important documents in the freezer.
I love the way you love cheese
Omg my uncles used to own a restaurant on the seaside of Trani (Falcone), so I always come there! I'd love to meet you!
Hey la "pasta di mandorle" che sa di marzapane va diluita in un bicchiere d'acqua o di latte.
E perfetta anche in estate quando fa molto caldo...anche se è dolce
Wow! Insalata di finocchio e arance! Buonissima! :)
try alici marinate(white ones stored usually under olive oil, fresh small onion the small thin ones, and orange but completely peeled even from the thin white skin around the actual fruit
Proud of you, nodding and smiling again and again
Grazie!
In Milan you have plenty of places that sell international food. Also in supermarkets like Esselunga. Completely different situation in the South. ;)
Bene benissimo! Dal quello che si vede in frigo una vera Italiana.. quasi.. 😁👍
haha quasi italiana è perfetto per ora...
Nice choice of butter 😉
Love your top, the sleeve design is great! Do you mind sharing if you purchased in Italy? Thanks :-)
I love cheese!
Trovo incredibile di quanto ne sai sulla cucina italiana 💪
Indeed it is a juicer, you can extract juice from every fruit and vegetable, for example orange, carrots and lemon together are quite goog :)
You are a great example of someone who knows how to enjoy life
Sto vedendo questo video in piena estate, e mi è venuta voglia di mandarini. Strepitosi dolci succosi mandarini 😋
Thank you for sharing. This was so fun. By the way, I love your top. Where did you get it? 😅
So nice to see you enjoying Italy. I mean you are in the BEST place for food. That's for shizzle :-) and the International food scene? Yeah, a part from some sushi restaurant all you can eat... nothing else unfortunately! I am loving your pizza nights! When are we having a pasta party night?
Life is goooood! Pasta party night!! love that idea.
@@TheQKatie let's make it happen ;-)
You should try Sardinian sheep cheese (there are 2 different DOP kinds, "Pecorino Sardo" and "Fiore Sardo")
For international foods, there's a store in Bari in Corso Cavour, called "Asian Food" it has everything international you could need, including Sriracha!
yessssssss!
Ciao cara, il tuo canale è davvero bello, la ricotta salata te la consiglio grattugiata sugli gnocchi di zucca, crea un bel contrasto… Provala in una delle tue prossime ricette se ti va! Un bacione 😘
You have to try pecorino stagionato from Sicily. The big one👍👍
Just found your video, very interesting, one thing you need to do is take your eggs out of the refrigerator, the eggs will suck in the smells of the refrigerator, now I need to find your pumpkin recipe I have a whole draw in my second freezer of diced pumpkin.
Hey qkatie! Haven't you tasted "Carne al fornello" yet?!?!?! 😍😋😍😋 In Puglia (in the province of Bari in particular) it is like barbecue in Texas! Namely, it's a MUST!!!!
What you can do next is starting dance lessons of pizzica salentina and be ready for notte della taranta event next summer
Ooohh fun!
My wife effectively remembered me that this is the right time to cook artichokes stuffed with breadcrumbs, anchovies, capers and Parmesan.
Your so funny, you suit Italy
Among cheese, I would not let out Fontina d'Aosta :) One of the best in my opinion... Very often eaten with polenta! :)
So many great choices!
How do you keep so much food and eat it before it spoils?
You are a foodie and it is so fun. I am also a foodie.
have u ever tryed oranges whit salmon and onions?😋 È una specialità siciliana ti consiglio anche di provarla con le arance di Ribera (Sicilia)
Do they sell pizza by the metre in Puglia?
Btw you're so lucky to live in this wonderful country. I love how you embrace it and try to live like an Italian it's smashing!
Vico Equense
Try ricotta forte with anchovy fillets on bread
Can you do a wine haul (grocery or wine store)? As an American living in Germany I go nuts over the wine selection and it’s cheap.
Oo! Love this idea, thanks!
passata di pomodoro is NOT tomato sauce, it's tomato puree :D I found out the hard way my first time grocery shopping in the US LOL I dislike premade sauces so much, I need to get my own tomato puree and I add salt, pepper, olive oil, and some basil and/or oregano
Check out Carrefour supermarket, you can find everything there. I mean in Rome at least you can.
Bellissimo
love this so much! how do you stay so thin eating all that cheese and carbs? do you guys eat any meat?
Sometimes. Usually only when it's served to us by hosts or in a shoot situation. We've been mostly vegetarian for a couple years now for various personal reasons. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful video 🤗🥰✌️
Thank you! Cheers!
Grandissima
I love Puglia! And what, no Cacciocavola?
Your pizza looks very yummy!!
It is! Grazie!
È una centrifuga!!
Hai una montagna di roba in frigo 😄
Haha! è vero! Penso sia una abitudine americana ;)
I know Gorgonzola looks likes rotten but it is incredibly good.
Actually it's also a pretty light cheese.
I you like cheese, then visit the whole the Alpine region. Hundreds of delicious cheeses.
We love gorgonzola. Just put some on pizza tonight! Can't wait to get out there and try all the deliciousness Italy has to offer!
@@TheQKatie If you have the chance to visit Alpine region, you could find not only delicious cheeses but also amazing local liquors and other delicacies such as rose marmalade.
@@TheQKatie which Italian cheese are you fond of and eat the most?
Oh, dear no international cuisine in Italy? I was in Mercato delle Erbe, the fresh food market of Bologna Emelia Romana, the alleged home of Italian food. What I found was a small stall stuffed full of Hinze Tomato Ketchup!
Why eating miso in Italy??? Italy is from a culinary point of view, heaven! Greets from Austria!
latte Granarolo, best brand
Did you get those Sicilian preserves in the local shop actually? Would be cool if his produce is now reaching so far :) We went there a few years ago after seeing him on the Netflix show Chef's table where he explained he's trying to save the typical Sicilian almonds for future generations. Best mandorla granita ever. As for batteries...I think that only works for rechargeable ones. (nice Italian series by the way! recently subscribed.)
No, I ordered them from www.caffesicilia.it. I was testing them out as potential gift baskets for people who helped with my book (no surprise: they passed the test!). I wish they were available in stores here! I've since taken the batteries out, it just felt weird... Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching! Lots more Italian adventures to come!
@qkatie I love Caffè Sicilia products. Instead of ordering them online, you need to visit their shoppe in the enchanting town of Noto and enjoy their world famous granita di mandorle. Better yet, why not do a food tour of Sicily?! It is a cuisine and world unto itself, hence why we call it the PICCOLO CONTINENTE or the little continent. If I still lived there, I would welcome you as my guest. Starting in eastern Sicily near Bronte, you can find the unique and aromatic pasta con pesto di pistacchio (pasta with creamy yet textured pistachio sauce or as we say in Sicilian like the Arabs fastuca for pistachio). Moving on to Siracusa, you will find the famous coniglio stimpiratu (rabbit stew) which was a staple for people in the country side. Closer to the city, you can find the sarausani eating ghiotta di babbuci or babbaluci (a sort of thick tomato snail soup). If you enjoy carb-filled street food as much as I do, then there's cudduruni (flatbread pizza), pizzolu or pizzolo (this is a true pizza "pie" with crust on top), scaccia or scacciata (stuffed breads), mpanata (Sicilian empanada), and mpanatigghi (Sicilian empanadillas: chocolate / meat dumplings). For the sweet tooth, it is a must to try cioccolato di Modica or ciucculatti murucanu (ancient Sicilian chocolate from the Spanish age). The history of this treat is as interesting as the taste! As they say ad Aula where they make the wonderful Avola wine, and beyond across Sicily, "veni a tastàri" or come and taste!
Delicious
simpatica e divertente iscritto
Thanks for sharing Italy food life. . .found out have ancient ancestry from Venice, Florence and maybe some shared life to Magyars who settled in Piedmont and Abruzzo.
Neat to find appliance but take grain of salt
as imo older plastic
may have bpa
or chemicals that come out after it has aged. The ecstasy of southern Italian produce . . .don't let it drag you off your feet like a wish dragon that comes with costs.
Emmentaler is one of my favorites. Especially if it's really aged and strong haha
Ohhh yeah I got a huge chunk of it for my pumpkin week a couple videos back, So good. Love that funk.
@@TheQKatie yess! Just watched that. When I was in France, in the mornings I would go to the local outdoor market and get Emmental and grapes for breakfast. It was some type of cave aged Emmental, so stinky but so delicious haha
My Zeppole 😍 😌
sono deliziosi!
how can i buy your book?
it is really interesting to see Italy, my country, through the eyes of a non-Italian
Thanks for watching! All the places to pre-order (including in Italy) are here: www.katie-quinn.com/cheese-wine-and-bread-cookbook
@@TheQKatie grazie mille!! I love your videos !!
Great video, love the cheese selection. Question: do you like the taste of buffalo mozzarella compared to cow mozzarella? Is there much difference? Keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching! That's a great question. I've had both and enjoyed it every time. The mozzarella I mostly eat here is cow. I'll have to keep taste testing to get a better sense. It's a tough job, but I guess I'm up for it ;)
the buffalo must live on pasture (unlike cows that can be kept in a closed plant), the calf is often kept with the mother, who is induced to produce more milk if she is with him, and produces much less milk than a cow, in general, which is why buffalo mozzarella is more expensive than cow mozzarella.
Buffalo ( not to be confused with the american buffalo) milk has a better composition from a purely dairy point of view.
The taste of buffalo mozzarella is much more decisive than that of cow.
p.s. buffaloes are mostly raised in Campania and central and southern Italy, in milder climates, otherwise in the cold they would not produce milk.
Of course they are different! Very different!
To be short, the main difference is that buffalo mozzarella is saltier, it does not need any kind of dressing 😉
@@francescacasini4694 I recently found this out in person. It was outstanding
Hi! You should try to go to some Asian food or African food shops if you want to find Sriracha or soy sauce or anything international. Usually small shops owned by migrants have those kind of ingredients! I don't know Trani's situation though, I live in the north!
Good call. We don’t have one in Trani but my husband found one in Barletta nearby. They had some spicier things we were glad to stock up on!
Bravissima e bellissima 🌺 🌹
Zeppole, yup, ought to be FRIED: this is the way; ricotta forte (locally called ricotta "squanna"), I agree, that's like marmite: either you love it, or you hate it (I personally hate it...); sriracha! yummy! yes, smuggling from abroad is the only option...
Maybe Connor can become a professional sriracha smuggler... jkjkjk. Thanks for watching!
I wish this content were in Italian.
I need to practice!
Does any one have a channel recommendation to train italian?
Discolto le mie canale preferite in questo video: ua-cam.com/video/FeYz8sUeFBs/v-deo.html

In sicily we call the fannel thing insalata d'arance, i loved to see american people eat it
It's one of my favorite dishes. So simple!
