The schiscetta is social on Instagram – Italian Cuisine

The schiscetta is social on Instagram


Bringing lunch at home can turn into a fun and creative operation. Just a bit of imagination, a little 'organization and the desire to confront each other by sharing our ideas

The main difference between cooking something that will be consumed at home and preparing lunch in advance, is that the second case does not allow improvisations. The Milanese rite of the schiscetta (which in the rest of Italy is breakfast or packed lunch), requires organization, imagination and a little practical sense. Because let's face it all: to put in a bowl two peeled carrots and a few slices of ham we are all capable, but to prepare something that will gratify us when it arrives at lunch time, it takes something more. The risk, otherwise, is to dive on unbalanced, poor or unappetising meals that will tempt us to run to the nearest bar in search of a well-stuffed sandwich.
To tell us about it all we do not have to do when we prepare our lunch to take to the office, the Instagram account @schiscettebrutte, fueled with irony by all those who realize they have not given the best of themselves by preparing the slab.

This image, for example, which has earned the profile picture of the account, teaches us that the knife could also be used to eat pasta. A paste that is glued, hot and slightly seasoned and has taken the shape of the container that contained it. Are you hungry looking at her? It's over! And the more we look at it, the more we convince ourselves that a well-made slab is a whole other thing (below an example from our March issue on newsstands).

Something very different from picking up what's left of dinner in a plastic container with lid or from assembling foods that we would never match in messy and disgusting meals. The schiscetta is think of a meal that can be preserved without difficulty playing with flavors, textures and colors. Preparing a good lunch is to spend a few minutes more on the day to our well-being, to the throat, but also to our balance.
A bit of commitment, lots of imagination and you're done. In the gallery above we have collected the most beautiful slabs of Instagram… do not you want to prepare one to share?
This month, Italian Cuisine invites you to do it with a game inspired by the March issue on newsstands. In the article below (Prepare your sketch!), We explain how to participate!

The story of the 97-year-old vegan star on Instagram – Italian Cuisine

The story of Anne Evers, who became a vegan at 96 and a vegan star of Instagram at 97, who now boasts a community of almost 30 thousand people

From the series "it's never too late to embrace a new kind of food", the living proof is a sweet and gritty American grandmother, who has decided to become vegan at the ripe age of 96. Despite the age he chose to share his passion for plant-based diet and for this new lifestyle on an Instagram account, which soon became popular and very popular. Today, at 97, Anne Evers has become a media case, but above all a vegan star of Instagram, with almost 30 thousand followers.

Influencer and paladin of the #govegan at 97 years

The vegan and media adventure of Anne Evers began about a year ago, under the guidance of her beloved nephew. The turning point was when, together with her, she watched the docu-film titled on Netflix What the health, on the importance of adopting a vegan diet and on the impact that consumption of meat and dairy products have on health. The impact on her was such that she immediately induced her to experiment with the diet, and veganism and physical activity not only benefited her in terms of health but also in terms of enthusiasm, positive energy and good humor. Anne decided then, 96 years to open a Instagram account to promote the benefits of plant-based diet by sharing the images of his activities and his daily meals, in the hope that they can also encourage other people of all ages to follow his example, for the sake of their health and that of the planet.

A vegan and green diet from which to take inspiration

Like most of the food star and Instagram influencer Anne also shares photos in "food porn" accompanied by detailed and passionate reviews of lunches consumed in local and vegan or vegan friendly restaurants, but also of cruelty free products tested by her. His genuine, enthusiastic, entertaining and engaging stories are packed with detailed information and descriptions, interesting considerations about foods and proven ingredients and their positive effects on health and the body. Last but not least, as a good grandma, this vegan star does not skimp too useful tips and practical precautions to be put into practice in the kitchen, as it demonstrates to listen and involve with affection its conspicuous community. In short, between a rich protein salad with avocado, a paste enriched with mixed vegetables and legumes, a delicious sandwich with artichokes, peppers, spinach and hummus, smoothie experiments and vegan sweets and a taste of the many incredible alternatives to cheese without animal protein, its Instagram profile can really be an inspiration for kitchen enthusiasts of all ages.

I’m (almost) Back!

Today is the last day of my vacation, and I’m sorry, but I just couldn’t not post any longer. So, I wanted to say a quick hello, and thank everyone who sent along their well-wishes during the break. By the way, I loved seeing the pictures many of you posted on Twitter and Instagram of our Thanksgiving recipes!


Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to golf as I’d planned, but I did keep myself busy with a few fun projects around the house. One of those projects was definitely not an awesome and illegal pizza oven built from a pile of bricks found in the garden (not pictured here). Nope, that didn’t happen.


Anyway, I’ll have a brand new video recipe tomorrow, so be sure to stay tuned for that, and as always…I missed you!
