About The Author

ELEANORA SCARPETTA - If you're wondering who I am, I'm the lady from Easton, Ct. who you might have seen on the Martha Stewart Living Show demonstrating traditional Italian Cooking. That's me - Eleanora Scarpetta, the lady who loves to cook and has a passion for food.

I recently moved from the Bronx, approximately 2 years ago. I was born in Naples, Italy in a town called "Cervinara" Province of Avellino. I came to America when I was three years old (about 20 years ago--ha ha) . 

Most of my cooking interests were inspired by my mother. She came to America at age 43 and was a domesticated homemaker all of her life. I was fortunate enough to stay home and raise my three children which gave me the time to apply a lot of my energy towards creative cooking. 

My mother taught me many diversified, easy, traditional Italian dishes which I polished and enhanced for my personal taste. Lets just say I have mastered them and made them more exciting and desirable. 

Of course, much of my motivation comes from a healthy appetite and a craving for good, delicious food. Please read on...I'd love to share my insight on cooking with you, and tell you more about Italy...its influence and inspiration.
