In this special Italian American Heritage Month edition, Lisa highlights the inspiring journey of Danielle Caminiti, a lawyer turned cookbook author, whose deep connection to her Italian American roots shaped her love for cooking. Growing up in a two-family home in Staten Island, Danielle was immersed in the traditions of her Naples and Sicilian heritage, passed down through generations in the family kitchen. These experiences led her to create Have U Covered in the Kitchen and author her cookbook, From Courtroom to Cucina, preserving cherished family recipes. As we celebrate Italian American Heritage Month, Danielle’s story reminds us of the enduring importance of family, culture, and food in keeping traditions alive, even in a bustling city like New York.
