Regina was born to cook! Born into an Italian-American family, she learned to cook at eight years old, making meatballs and “gravy” for Sunday dinner. She has shared the traditional, contemporary and original recipes that have evolved out of her kitchen. So it is a natural progression that finds her in the food business at this point in her life.

Regina Cucina Spicy Italian Garlic Mix was inspired while gazing out over the hills of Tuscany and dipping crusty bread in extra virgin olive oil. It’s that experience together with the kitchen training Regina received growing up which give you the spice mix and the quick and easy recipes contained in the cookbook.

Cooking is the most basic thing you can do for yourself and those you love. Cooking with fresh, good quality ingredients is the heart and soul of Italian food. Cooking food that is prepared quickly and eaten slowly will make you feel Italian.

When you are born into an Italian family you have a love relationship with food, period. The good news is you don’t have to be Italian to love Italian food! Get caught up in the passion and enthusiasm of Regina Cucina.
