Italian cuisine reimagined through an international perspective.
As Chef Cristina Bowerman says, “Italy is a country that has always welcomed everybody. Therefore it is impossible for Italian cuisine to remain only traditional.”
Therefore Cristina offers this course where you will discover how to introduce flavors and techniques from other food cultures into Italian cuisine.
See how she incorporates techniques she learned in China and ingredients she became acquainted with during her trips to Mexico and the USA.
Discover a new version of the classic spaghettini with clams that takes advantage of fermentation and the use of Japanese ingredients, an oyster dish that mixes French, African and Italian influences, and a lobster dish that combines Asian and Italian flavors.
At the end of this course you will be able to:
– Incorporate flavors and techniques from other food cultures into Italian cuisine.
– Prepare new takes on classic Italian dishes such as spaghettini with clams.
– Apply sous vide, siphon and fermentation techniques to Italian cuisine.

Join our community to help deliver a better food future for all.
The SDG2 Advocacy Hub facilitates the Chefs' Manifesto, a community of 1100+ chefs from 90 countries, equipped with a simple set of actions to drive progress against the food issues that matter most of them.
We believe chefs can be powerful advocates for a better food future - inspiring people to make changes in their kitchens and communities and empowering them to call on governments and companies to also play their part.
As chefs bridge the gap between farm and fork, the Chefs' Manifesto empowers chefs with a framework tied to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Antonio Roberto Festa
Surely she is a great chef, but as a teacher it made me sleepy. interesting video lessons but bad audio and all too slow, not very dynamic... the oyster dish is "embarrassing" for me and the lobster very very sad.
