ere in Tescoma we love so much “home made” food with fresh seasonal, zero km ingredients. How about cooking a delicious and genuine meal with your own hands? But above all, we’re into home made... with love: that’s the secret ingredient of our best recipes, and that’s why we elected this line as our motto. We put love in everything we do all the time here, trying to make our 9 to 5 routine creative and funny. Everything tastes better if you add a pinch of love, don’t you think? Talking about taste, that’s what this special issue is all about. First, we’re giving you a taste of who we are down below here: the dream team that made this magazine possible. On page 5 we’re giving you a taste of what’s to come in the next pages, with a preview of all the delicious recipes we have tried for you. From main courses to cocktails and desserts, we’re hoping to give you some inspiration for your menus and if you want to let us know how it goes, post pictures of your best dishes and tag us, you might see them reposted on social networks, or printed in the issues to come. A taste of the new trends is what you can find in our agenda, with the most important international appointments that will give us a glimpse of what’s new in the world of houseware. We won’t miss them, will you? Save the date! Moving on, we find taste through the following pages, with sweet and savoury recipes. See how to stay fit without giving up on taste: Daria shares her recipes with spinach as main ingredient on page 26. Rossella shares her taste for design and her “creative recycle” tips for giving a second chance to old stuff you no longer use: would you ever have guessed that old ladles could turn into the most romantic complement to Valentine’s dinner? Francesca on the other hand, is more on the practical side, always looking for new ways of cooking the food she loves, without wasting time. Find out how she gets by with great looking (and tasting) frittelle! Everyone has their own passions here and Simone is guiding us through one of his: cinema. What’s it all got to do with taste? Well he’s a lot into food as well and every time he watches a movie, he pays attention to the food being served as well as the plot and photography and all the rest. And if he eats a dish that’s being eaten in the movie he’s watching - like he does on page 32 - he assures it’s like watching it in 5D. Try to believe! Chiara shares her newly discovered pleasure of rewarding herself and her brand new attitude... want to know how? Read more about her life- changing “emotional snacks” in her column on page 35. As for myself, I have a taste for travel: I’m sharing it with you along with my taste for good food and drinks on page 46: see my smart guide to the best spots where you can enjoy a great happy hour around the world. I hope it makes you feel like packing up and leaving. And if you don’t have the wanderlust gene, you can still find nice cocktails and nibbles and that’s enough to get a taste!

EDITORIAL

Enjoy the reading,

who’s who NICOLETTA ABENI

She has always had a relish for her job in the home and cookware branch, now an all-rounder of marketing and communication. Mom of 4, she can incredibly find the time to cook, and well! A special recipe

of homemade sponge fingers

who’s who DARIA FRANCHINI A free spirit, always moving from ocean depths to mountain tops, finding the beauties of nature the only reason worth stopping for a shoot.

is her forte.

who’s who SIMONE BELLERI

Go figure how a man can feel being thrown into an all-female office! A sports and music lover, he is still sane for now but deserves all possible solidarity. He’s going to give us the male point of view that was still missing.

who’s who FRANCESCA CORNA PELLEGRINI She met the real Prince Charming when she became a mom, and fell for him so badly that she has two now! Constantly struggling - and succeeding sometimes - to make family, work and friends go together.

who’s who CHIARA PELATI

She’s the greatest supporter of “creative disorder”, a calm and well-balanced person... the punching bag hanging in her bedroom helps a lot with that. A committed single (really?), totally in love with pasta and her horse.

who’s who ROSSELLA FERRARI She’s an accommodating woman,

always quiet and kind but you’re going to hear her roar if that’s what it takes! Above all, she loves the mountains and the incomparable feeling of getting on top.
