Whats Cookin Italian Style Cuisine

Welcome to What's Cookin' Italian Style Cuisine! I'm Claudia, the owner and recipe creator of this blog. I hail from Utica, New York, a place well-known for its rich Italian culinary traditions. Here, I've brought to life many of the recipes that were a staple in my childhood, including some beloved copycat dishes from popular local restaurants, all deeply rooted in my Italian heritage that has been shared through generations for over a century. Over the years, I've also developed a variety of new recipes, and my most popular post features Chicken Wings and Dipping Sauces. Since launching my blog in 2009, I've proudly earned the title of the chicken wing queen in my family!

4 days ago | whatscookinitalianstylecuisine.com | Claudia Lamascolo

Focaccia, baked homemade dough topped with an array of fresh chopped herbs and plum tomatoes, can be an appetizer or, in my case a fantastic light lunch with a salad and glass of red wine. The dough is all made from scratch, baked, and topped with the freshest ingredients that we grew up on in our Italian home back in the late 1960s. The toppings that can be added to this style of focaccia are unlimited, and adapting to taste can make a new and creative focaccia every time you make this.
