In this episode, we explore "Cucina Povera" or "Peasant Food," Italy’s humble yet ingenious approach to cooking that turns simple, affordable ingredients into delicious, nourishing meals. We discuss how this resourceful culinary tradition minimizes waste, embraces seasonality, and proves that great flavor comes from technique rather than expensive ingredients. You'll learn how to apply "Cucina Povera" principles to your own kitchens—saving money, reducing food waste, and cooking more mindfully.
