This week I have a true Italian food maestro, Gennaro Contaldo. He’s been on our screens, pairing up with his late, dear friend and another Italian food leader, Antonio Carluccio. He’s the man who taught Jamie Oliver the secret of Italian cooking and he’s the author of several cookbooks and the face of many a TV show. 

His new cookbook, out now, Gennaro’s Cucina, focuses on the heart and soul of Italian cookery; the basics, the simple yet classic dishes, and really highlights food waste and how to cook with all ingredients and all parts of the fruit, veg, meat and fish.

Gennaro was an absolute delight to interview, and came with his Italian charm and humour. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!
