Had a great chat with Wendy Holloway at Flavor of Italy podcast, where we talked about tomatoes, Italian American food, and traveling to Italy.

Tonight I added my 50th and 51st video on the @redsauceamerica.bsky.social YouTube account, which I just realized is 5 years old.

Have you wondered where Chicken Francese comes from?
