New York chef and restaurateur Lidia Bastianich thinks the question of what constitutes great Italian cuisine has a "simple" answer."It's a cuisine that's simple, colorful and tasty," says Bastianich, a James Beard Award nominee and host of PBS television's Emmy Award-winning Lidia's Kitchen. "It's wedded to the seasons and makes nourishing sense if it is prepared properly."
In Bastianich's culinary world, less is more, when it's prepared with passion and a little bit of love. She will share insights and techniques gleaned from years of experience at the Pabst Theatre Jan. 16, during An Intimate Conversation with Lidia Bastianich. Mitch Teich, creator and host of WUWM'sLake Effect program, will moderate the event.
