Over the years, Dorina dedicated her life to her family as a stay-at-home mom. However, she found her escape and joy in cooking. For Dorina, cooking became an art form, much like painting or singing. It was her therapy, a way to express herself. She was fortunate enough to travel all over Europe and America, meeting amazing people and seeing magical places. Now, she wants to share her talent with you while teaching and entertaining you at the same time. Dorina’s painting starts with fun recipes and a mission to find the right colors, in the form of fresh and, if possible, organic food. She loves using gadgets that make cooking faster and easier, some of which you will be able to find on Amazon. And of course, any good artist always has a collection of interesting cookbooks to pull from. She is honored to bring this joy and laughter into your kitchen, sharing her funny and crazy personality with you all. So let’s all welcome Dorina and her Italian cuisine into our own kitchens, in TUA Cucina con Dorina. Grazie!
