Today La Cucina Italiana – since 1929 the most authoritative and long-standing cooking monthly in our country – is launching #laricettacheunisce, a new project to bring Italy together at the table.
The editorial staff, under the direction of Maddalena Fossati, will involve all of you every week, inviting you to cook a specific dish to share with your family, lovers and friends. Even if far away, cooking the same dish will be like being at home together.
The nice thing will be not only posting the recipe but also your family and a collective photograph will be composed to make everyone feel more united. A great family album where you will be the protagonists, the desire to be together and to feel closer through the kitchen.
Sharing the same dish, it will be like sitting all together at a long table – virtual – from the Aosta Valley to Sicily, passing through all the regions. Looking forward to doing it for real.
«The domestic kitchen has returned to the protagonist in everyone's homes and videos calling each other, appearing on the balcony or talking to each other from the landing to share a recipe is a way to stay closer, to stay in touch. With this project, La Cucina Italiana wants to embrace and reunite Italy around the table as it has been doing for almost a century, "he says Maddalena Fossati, director of the brand.
To participate, just photograph yourself at the table, or with a plate in hand, or even sharing the screenshot of a live link with loved ones and challenge your distant friends to do the same, always using the hashtag #laricettacheunisce.
Italian and French chefs, famous people, architects, designers and influencers will also take part in the initiative.
Each week will be dedicated to a recipe and each week the best will be chosen which will be published on the website and on the official social channels of La Cucina Italiana.
