Pasta doesn't make you fat. How much pasta you eat makes you fat.
From Giada De Laurentiis
My biggest bit of advice would be to spend some time actually helping caterers or Chefs, even if it has to be for free or as an intern of culinary externship. It helps immerse yourself in what you potentially want to do.
I grew up in the kitchen, mostly with my grandfather, my mother and my aunt Raffy.
My grandfather's family used to own a pasta factory in Naples and they would go door-to-door selling their pasta. So his love of food came from his parents, which was then passed down to my mother and then again to me.
I lost my brother when he was 30, and that was devastating for me. I don't know if I will ever get over it.
If people are made to feel uncomfortable in the kitchen, they won't go in there. That's why I think children learning to cook can be such a wonderful thing.
It's almost ingrained in people that, just like you can't be a smart model, you can't be a good-looking cook.
I'm most comfortable in T-shirts, but they have to have some style to them.
When I was a kid, for my birthday every year, my mother made me pasta bechamel, which is rigatoni with a white cream sauce.
My mother and I, our favorite part of any baked pasta is the top, where the cheese gets crusty.
