<p><strong>Did you know that Ligurian cuisine is more than just pesto and focaccia?</strong></p>
<p>---</p>
<p>Ciao! Siamo Gabriele e Angelique. Benvenuti nel nostro podcast!</p>
<p>We are passionate language learners, and we record for you the language learning podcast we’d like to play when we learn new languages.</p>
<p>Our podcast, produced in mixed English and simple Italian, helps beginners and intermediate Italian language learners enjoy engaging content about Italy, its language, and its culture from day 0 of their language learning journey.</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>It all started 6 years ago. </p>
<p>Having been a maritime lawyer for years, Enrica pivoted into her career by becoming a <strong>food storyteller</strong>. </p>
<p>She recounts her personal journey – both in English and in Italian - through the culinary tradition and flavors of Liguria with her food blog, “A Small Kitchen in Genoa”. </p>
<p>If she’s not writing recipes and stories in her blog, she is offering private Ligurian cooking classes and food tours around Genoa.</p>
<p>This month, she is releasing her new cookbook, “Liguria in Cucina – the flavors of Liguria”. It’s a recipe book that’s written both in English and in Italian – perfect for our listeners who want to replicate Ligurian dishes while learning languages!</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>In this episode, we listen to the many stories behind some of Enrica’s favorite Ligurian dishes, and the particularities behind documenting food traditions across the region. </p>
<p>If you liked our conversation, check out the link in the show notes to order her latest cookbook.</p>
<p>In the meantime, support our podcast, leave us a review in Apple Podcast or a rating on Spotify, and join our Patreon community. </p>
<p>Listen NOW to our conversation and learn about Enrica and the underrated beauty of Ligurian cuisine.</p>
