My name is Nico Ferraro. I am sixty-eight years old and I have been baking bread since I was eleven. My great-grandfather left Palermo in 1880 with a notebook of recipes and nothing else in his pocket. That notebook is still here, on the shelf above the oven. Every week I open it to one page and show you what is written there — the bread, the pasta, the sauce — along with all the small tricks my nonno never bothered to write down, because in his day everybody already knew them. Nobody knows them anymore. That is the whole reason I started this. No fancy equipment. No expensive ingredients. No hurry. Just the old way, explained slowly, by a man who still does it every morning. New video every week. Pull up a chair.
