Christine, My Tuscany Roots
A Journey Through Tradition, Flavor & Adventure
Cooking, traveling, and embracing the beauty of simple, seasonal food this is my journey.
I’m Christine, a cooking teacher, food writer, and passionate explorer of culinary traditions. Born and raised in Tuscany in Montecerboli a small village in the Tuscany hills, where food was more than just nourishment it was a way to connect, to celebrate, and to honor the rhythms of nature and tradition. The scent of fresh pasta drying on my grandmother’s table, the warmth of Sunday lunches shared with family, and the deep respect for ingredients grown with care have shaped the way I cook and live today.
With my blog, Christine,My Tuscany Roots, I weave together the past and the present. I share cherished family recipes, passed down through generations, alongside new discoveries from my travels across Europe. Living in my camper, I explore local markets, immersing myself in the culinary traditions of each place I visit. Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and website. Never miss an update.
