Enjoying the Wait | Local Aromas
Notes de l’épisode
Do you know what we get genuinely excited about every year?
Strawberries.
Artichokes.
The first tomatoes of summer.
The arrival of peaches.
And then ... we happily say goodbye to them until next year.
In this episode, we're chatting about something that is deeply rooted in Italian culture: enjoying the wait.
Valeria and Benedetta talk about why Italians naturally eat with the seasons, why we still get excited when a favorite ingredient comes back, and how waiting for something can actually make life richer.
It's also a conversation about local markets, supporting small producers, why we personally never buy fruit and vegetables at the supermarket, and why food isn't just about eating. It's about paying attention.
Maybe one of the reasons Italy feels a little slower is because we've learned that not everything has to be available all the time.
Sometimes, the waiting is part of the joy. 🫠
