Description

Chef and former Montalvo Culinary Fellow Jessica Theroux presents her new film series, "Rabbits and Wrinkles," based on her journey through Italy to learn the traditions and recipes of the region. The film will be followed by a reading from her cookbook/travelogue, "Cooking with Italian Grandmothers."

Theroux spent a year traveling throughout Italy, cooking and talking with Italian grandmothers. The result is a charming and authentic collection of recipes, anecdotes, photographs, and film footage celebrating the rustic and sustainable culinary traditions of Italy's most experienced home cooks. Cooking with Italian Grandmothers features the histories and menus of 15 grandmothers, each of whom welcomed Theroux into their kitchen and pantry, sharing both favorite dishes and personal wisdom.

Books will be available for purchase at the event. This event coincides with two culinary workshops based on her recipes on Saturday, Nov. 13.
