Christina Carrozza was born in San Giuseppe Iato, just south of Palermo which lies on the northern coast of Sicily. Like many villages and towns in the region, its inhabitants rely on the production of corn, olives and grapes for their livelihood.

While she was still a young girl of three years, Christina’s family moved to Bergamo, an historical and oft-visited city north of Milan in the province of Lombardia where she learned how to cook from her grandmother, mother, and aunt.

One of her favorite recipes is Farfalle all Pescatore—bowtie pasta with mussels, calamari, and shrimp–a dish she not only enjoys preparing but also eating with her family. Christina is very grateful and proud of her Italian heritage. She currently resides in Brooklyn with her family.
