One of the dishes that Eva gets requests for the most is "Aglio, Olio e Peperoncino." Today she’s making a few "twists" that you probably have never encountered, even if you're an aglio, olio e peperoncino fanatic. Watch here! —> youtu.be/dSo9FC2s6to

Chestnuts are practically a lost food in America but they remain extremely popular in Italy. Today, Eva is giving me my first taste of chestnuts with some Italian chestnut recipes! Oh, and then we maybe fly to Italy to try the real deal… Watch here! —> youtu.be/kaeENcIoLAA

A classic mistake that I always used to make was assuming that ALL Italian food can be found ANYWHERE in Italy. Don’t expect Neapolitan pizza in Rome, but DEFINITELY check out these Roman pizzas! Watch here! —> youtu.be/9wMnxzKxyq0

A lot of traditional, Italian sweets were invented when sugar was a rare luxury. Home cooks had to get creative when sweetening their desserts, and today Eva's going to show us some of these alternatives with some treats made with NO sugar! Watch here! —> youtu.be/GvAD6o8iW6Q

There's ONE type of pasta Eva’s never been able to make. The secret behind it lies in an isolated and mysterious Italian community, so we headed there to see what we could find. And boy, we found a LOT more than we bargained for... Watch here! —> youtu.be/jo0m15KEOvU

While Sicilians don't make anything they would call "pizza," they do have several, um, "pizza adjacent" recipes that Eva is sharing with us today. They're thick, bold and (compared to Neapolitan pizza) quick to make! Watch here! —> youtu.be/7hciB9wqI5w

Everyone loves pesto, but most of us have only tried the basil-based "Pesto alla Genovese." It's one of my favorite things to eat, so Eva decided it was time I learned about some OTHER Italian pesto recipes... and I'm really glad she had the idea... youtu.be/aoFenuHFoCY
