A s a n a w a r d - w i n n i n g c h e f ,
winemaker and second generation
Italian, Michael Chiarello knows that
every authentic Italian meal starts with
pasta cooked “al dente.” Preparing
pasta al dente creates the perfect
texture, firm, but not too hard. And
al dente is never soggy or overcooked.
Pasta cooked al dente is the signature
of every authentic Italian meal.

Surround your pasta dishes
with foods grown locally.

desserts are the backbone of
Cucina Italiana.

cheese and dried herbs.
