Katie Parla is living the foodie dream. The Jersey girl has called Rome home for the past 20 years, where she is a food and beverage writer, culinary guide, and cookbook author. While you might share her passion for pizza and pasta, the similarities likely end there: Katie has an art history degree from Yale and master’s degree in Italian Gastronomic Culture, not to mention she’s a certified sommelier and archaeology specialist in the city of Rome. Her approach to food is so deeply intertwined with her expertise on Italian history and culture that the two have become one. In this episode, Katie takes us all over Italy, to answer not only what, but why, the food of Italy is so beloved all over the globe. Prepare for a little pizza fomo inside what is an incredible lesson on Italy’s regionality, seasonality, and multicultural expression of food. Katie’s Italy is not only delicious, but complex, technical, and unexpected.
