Présentation
I am an international lawyer with a passion for good, simple but well-prepared food. In my food blog Memorie di Angelina, inspired by my grandmother's wonderful home cooking, I draw on my Italian heritage, my international life experience in New York, Rio, Paris, Vienna and, above all, ten wonderful years in Rome. I now live in Washington, DC.
Besides the Italian food of my own cultural background, I also enjoy French and Chinese cuisine. I am an inveterate dim sum maven, can't get enough noodle soup and dream about a hearty cassoulet on a cold winter's eve. But let me not forget my passion for great sushi and fondness for real Mexican food.
I author a food blog called Memorie di Angelina, inspired by the wonderful home cooking of my Italian grandmother. I also administer a Facebook recipe exchange club called Gnocchi ai funghi.
Looking forward to enjoying this vibrant community of professional and home chefs!

Fantastic profile, Frank. I've never had Lasagna di carnevale. If you make it this weekend, I hope you'll post the recipe to your blog!1 réponse

Thanks, John! Nice to meet you. Your smiling face is all over this site! Will definitely post the lasagne recipe soon. Cheers, Frank

Frank, Thank you for allowing me into your world of cooking. I see your a fan or Marcella Hazan. I have several of her books, and they are great. Also, I see our girl, Julia Child. Shes the one that got me started in cooking. And I have most if not all of her books also. I really enjoy some of your recipes, and your take on food. I follow both Classical Italian and French cooking. But I have to at least change a little something, or it wouldn't be mine. Again, Thank you for allowing into your world of cooking.

Nice to hear from you, Mike! Sorry it's taken so long to reply to your message--I just discovered it all these months later.... Anyway, yes, who doesn't love Julia and Marcella? And if you like to make changes to a recipe here and there to make it your own, well, isn't that what makes cooking so great?
Valerie Catrice15 février 2010 05:22
Hi Frank. Wow, 10 years in Rome! I am seriously jealous. I can't wait to try some of your recipes. :)

Cheers,

Dear Robert-Gilles!
So sorry to have taken so very long to reply. I didn't realize that I had all these comments on my profile! Glad to see you around here.
As for the "My Blog" feature, I think it needs to be added by Admin, but I'm not sure. It was already set up when I joined. You could contact the folks that run CES to ask...
Cheers and happy cooking!

I tried to leave a message on your blog but could not, it just asks for my google ID and pwd, and since I don't use it, I forgot it. In the past, I could enter my name and url and it worked fine, maybe you changed some settings?
I Sicilian8 mars 2010 02:21
Frank, thank you for your invitation, you sound like my twin brother. I too love pastina, I concoct it slightly different, but it is my comfort food and has become my daughter's and now my grandkids too. I also cherish my Artusi book, mine looks as if it's been around a century, the pages are yellow and food stains are all over it, but it is still my Italian culinary treasure. I love Bugialli and Hazan. I also delve in many other cuisines make my own Chinese dumplings and other scrumptious Chinese delicacies. I make my own sushi, and other delicate Japanese dishes. I make latin and caribbean food, Middle Eastern and Indian. I love to eat and when I feel like having something special it's just easier to make it than finding the restaurant that carries it and it always tastes better than buying it at the restaurant. My husband calls me a food snob, I don't enjoy eating just anywhere, but from the looks of your recipes and your experience I think I would enjoy eating at your table.1 réponse
Even though I like many cuisines my food blog is all about Sicilian, which is what I am. I feature stories of my years in Sicily and also stories of how recipes came to be. Please visit me at www.isicilian.boonrepublic.com
Glad to be in your circle of friends.

Actually, I used to travel rather often to Manila for business, so I am familiar with Filipino cooking. I've had lechon, adobo, even that semi-fertilized duck egg that I can't remember the name of... but I haven't ever tried to make it at home. Looking forward to your recipes!

I thought I was busy...after having read your Bio...
I'll just have to re-evaluate how really busy I'm not. LOL
I have not had much time to look at all your recipes.
They do however look very tasteful and appealing.
Looking forward to trying some of them hopefully soon;o)
Thanks for sharing,

I didn't realize you and I had so much in common! My culinary passions are: Italian, Greek, and Thai, but I can't forget Mexican or Chinese either!
