Using organic, local, seasonal ingredients was&nbsp; the main reason why my restaurant Le Tamerici in Isola del Giglio obtained mentions on all the restaurant guides in Italy. After being a cook,&nbsp; I am also a chef, in the sense that I am able to plan, organize,&nbsp; be on time.<br>Finally I am a teacher, being this the profession I have been doing the last&nbsp;fourteen years: students say I am good to transmit both the passion and techniques I have gathered by experience and studies.<br>A \u201cfood career\u201d pursued step by step, first watching the women of the family, running the restaurant and studying at the Istituto Alberghiero, then teaching and writing recipes, never stopping, but searching every day new discoveries and culinary adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gigliocooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/marcellas-toast-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5289\" width=\"305\" height=\"458\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My philosophy of cooking is: we cook something to eat it. It seems obvious, instead it seems that nowadays we have lost this primary vision of the cuisine.It is true that we first eat with the eyes, but I believe that too much garnish and overlapping of decoration and carved food has not so much to do with the primary purpose of nourishment and conviviality. This does not mean that the dish is not presented in a nice way.<br>A dish must be simple, not easy. When I say that I mean: a few ingredients of high quality. Not easy: a cook must be able to choose both the variety and the quality.<br>Making a bruschetta could be more difficult than an hollandaise sauce or \u201cmolecular caviar\u201d: the right bread : no salted, baked in a wooden fed oven, made with organic ender wheat flour, better if milled with a stone wheel\u2026.., slightly grilled \u2013 not baked!!!! &#8211; , no burnt, crispy outside, soft inside, ready to welcome the most suitable olive oil, which cannot be to light in colour and taste, not to spicy\u2026 just right. And the tomatoes: San Marzano or cherry tomatoes ripen on the plant, sweet and juicy.<br>The final touch of salt and pepper, both freshly ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gigliocooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_2436-682x1024-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5290\" width=\"286\" height=\"430\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The place where you cook is airy, clean, spaced, illuminated, with the right utensils and tools.
