Many of the ingredients and cooking methods traditional to Italy not only incorporate but enhance the absorption of vitamins in the body. She will focus on artisanal methods of cooking and preserving foods, specific nutrients found in seasonal and regional ingredients in Italian cuisine and how to combine the ingredients for maximum absorption and health. She will also discuss how the current food culture is evolving in New York City and moving toward natural eating.
