Ciao, I’m Jacob AKA the Ochef. Born in Tuscany, raised by a knife-wielding, sauce-simmering Nonno, and a veteran of NYC’s hottest kitchens, I’ve spent 40+ years turning ingredients into heirlooms. Here, you’ll find recipes that taste like Nonna’s hugs (with a touch of rebellion). No microwaves, no shortcuts, just passione . Got a question? Email me, but only if you include a photo of your dish. Let’s cook, argue about pasta shapes, and make memories. Mangiamo!
