Launch of Just Like Nanna Used to Make.

"In southern Italy, in the region of Calabria, where the mountains reach the sky and the land touches the sea; where food and culture are rich in love like the people who prepare the food. The mountains and the sea produce the food and flavours which awaken the soul and heart of any Italian. This book celebrates the traditional cooking of southern Italy, and the prettiest village in Calabria, called Miglierina just outside Cantazro.

"This cook book is dedicated to Carol Pallone, my mother-in-law, and her family. It's a collection of recipes handed down from one generation to the next. We hope that you enjoy reading and making these recipes, as we did. And as Nanna used to say, "Cooking with love is the way to your family heart". So enjoy and may your home be filled with love, laughter and life."

Leo Umphrey is a graduate of Culinary Arts at Okanogan University College, who has worked at various restaurants and resorts and now resides in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
