In Welcome to my home! recipes and savings
«I wanted to make a better and better book, but getting to the seventh was not easy. I wanted to find a new key and the people who follow me gave it to me: save, don’t waste“. Like this Benedetta Rossi explained how the idea of Welcome to my home!, his new book, yet another success. Born, in fact, listening to the needs of his fans.
Because she has the rare quality of knowing how to listen. Her fans overwhelm her with messages on social media, she reads them all (or almost). However, to those you see, you pay attention. And, in fact, having received endless requests for tips for cutting costs and ideas for preparing quick meals, he understood what the key word was this time “Savings”. So in Welcome to my home!to unlike other books, there are not only recipes. But we talk about recipes combined with concept of savings. Economical, energetic and time-consuming.
The book is divided in three sections: dishes that can be cooked quickly, recipes without cooking, what can be prepared with the few ingredients already in the pantry. Every recipe, flanked by illustrationsis declined in “Multi-preparations”, that is, it is explained and tested with different cooking techniques: oven, air fryer, small oven pot. Damn different flavor to the dishes, but, in fact, they also reveal themselves tricks to save time or energy.
For example Lto pot oven (invented in the early twentieth century, back in fashion) it is an alternative to the oven: it is used on the stove, but avoid turning on the oven that consumes a lot. The pressure cooker reduces cooking times, thus reducing gas consumption (ideal for roasts, soups, minestrone). And the air fryer is perfect for super fast dishes. That is, it saves time (“I even cook the cut of beef with it. It comes soft and juicy on the inside and crunchy on the outside, like on the barbecue, ”he said Benedetta Rossi to Tv Smiles and songs).
Also tips for saving at home
The big news of Welcome to my home! is that it also contains advice to save on gas, electricity and water bills. Tricks that sink into the tradition of grandparents, always very useful (for example by moving the fridge 10 cm away from the wall, less light is consumed).
And, always remembering the knowledge of the past, Benedetta Rossi in this book he also gives advice that they help in everyday life, like self-production, cultivate a small personal garden or making soap at home (the latter is his other great passion beyond cooking, in fact in his first tutorials on Youtube in 2009also gave directions on how to prepare soaps at home).
Benedetta Rossi: a husband, no children, a dog
Much of this food blogger’s success is due to hers stable and solid relationship with her husband, Marco Gentili. They got married in 2009 at Hawaii, but they have been together since 25 years old. He supports her in the preparation of some recipes in the kitchen. With him he founded the Maui Mediaa company that manages the promotion of the activities of Benedetta.
Together they opened the farm in the Marche region in 2003 La Vergara (closed in 2020 due to the pandemic). And both are also protagonists of a Cartoon that tells their life, Super Benny (Discovery production). To dub it are the same Benedetta and Marco (the curiosity is that first they record their voices, then the designers adapt the cartoons to their intonation, usually the opposite happens).
They live in a magnificent farmhouse in Altidonain Marche. Earthbound, they never got their heads together. They often appear in social videos together. United, good, simple but “thick”.
It is not known why they have not sons. Whenever someone asks a Benedetta Rossi in interviews, she always replies that they have a dog who is like a son to them. Indeed, they had Cloud, who had become a social star. Then he died and now there is the sweetest Cloud.
Benedetta Rossi and the kindness of the “neighbors”
When we talk about women in power, we always think of the effort to emerge, the elbowing of those who arrived, the hardness of those who had to cultivate “the hair on the stomach”. Benedetta Rossi no. You seem like the exception (which confirms the rule). Kind and helpful, he talks to everyone, even if at every public event he attends, they show up in hundreds for an autograph. He smiles at everyone, he has a delicate word for everyone.
“I want to be like the neighbor who helps in times of need,” she said. And she really manages to be. By making her simple and genuine, normal, and with her skill, she conquered Italy. And we are grateful to her: she means that being successful without screaming and without hurting is possible.
