I always thought that the family it was above all a group of people who love each other and who a Christmas they gather.
We once ate lunch with our aunts, today we are at my house and over the years the guests have changed. First there was my grandfather Giovanni, a big man who fell asleep immediately after the big meal on the sofa while we played broom or bingo. Then Leonardo and other little cousins arrived.
At our table, however, there have always been friends of passage because that day they were alone and at Christmas nobody must remain alone.
It would also apply to the rest of the year, but in the meantime we start from here, from the day of the feast, that of gifts and great binges that are always the same and always different that mark the rhythm of existence. Sharing, generosity, friendship… we do as we used once in the country when we kept an extra table, ready to use.
It matters little if the arrival of a new guest will force us to further tighten the elbows. It matters little if there will be less panettone or struffoli or mostaccioli (we have a service on all the desserts of Italy), what matters is to be together. This is the spirit of our dear Italy forever, this is the spirit of today's Italian cuisine.
P.S. As Johnny Dorelli said in the song Add a seat at the table 1974: "Divide the company, double the joy!".
