    Barbara Felicità Lucchini

    Born and raised in the bustling streets of Milan, where I currently live with my husband and two sons, my earliest memories are woven with the aroma of simmering tomato sauce, freshly baked pizza, and the rhythmic sound of pasta being kneaded. My grandmother, Nonna Felicita, passed on to me not only her recipes, but also stories, traditions and the soul of Italian cuisine. My passion soon expanded beyond the confines of my family's kitchen, inspiring me to delve deep into the vast landscape of Italian gastronomy. In a digital age where authenticity often takes a back seat, I created Recipes from Italy, a website dedicated to preserving and celebrating authentic Italian recipes. From the lemon-scented cliffs of Amalfi to the truffle-rich woods of Piedmont, our site invites users on a gastronomic journey across Italy. For me, each recipe is an ode to my heritage, a legacy I'm passionate about sharing with the world. Below you can find some of my most popular creations. A presto!
