Our Story

Mamma Mia Kitchen is an idea to showcase the authentic and delicious cuisine Italy has to offer. Mr. Mamma Mia Kitchen is originally from Idaho and while serving in the military he was lucky enough to be stationed in Italy for seven years. During his time in Italy, he met Mrs. Mamma Mia Kitchen and immersed himself in the culture. He discovered that Italian cuisine is nothing like what is represented as in the USA. In Italy, Mr. Mamma Mia Kitchen fell in love with Italian cuisine and the simplicity of it.

Italian cuisine is an art in its purest form. It is based on simple ingredients that showcase themselves in a dish. No fancy sauces and spices, just simple ingredients that stand-out.

Mr & Mrs Mamma Mia Kitchen both share a love of food and cooking and creating dishes. We started this blog to bring you authentic recipes directly from Italy and strive to stay as true as possible with ingredients permitting.

Italy is comprised of 20 regions and each region has its own cuisine and traditions. Our cooking style is influenced heavily by Neapolitan cuisine from Naples as that is where Mrs. Mamma Mia Kitchen is from.

We hope you enjoy this blog and the recipes we post! Buon Appetito!
