Welcome!
Meet Nonna
The O.G. Short Cook
My Nonna and my Mom are the inspirations behind The Short Cook. These two short, incredible home-cook chefs have taught me everything I know about cooking. I’ve been learning alongside them since I was a little girl. Growing up, Nonna always ensured we were creating something with dough, whether it was fresh pasta, pizza, or cookies. My Mom taught me how to enhance the flavors in every dish.
The Short Cook is dedicated to taking simple everyday ingredients and turning them into something delish! Just like my Nonna & my Mom taught me.
Now, I’m excited to share my recipes with you so that you can prepare delicious meals at your home. Let’s get cooking together!
Mangia, bevi, e divertiti!
Eat, drink, and be merry!

How It All Started
Everything important in our family has always revolved around gatherings at our dining table. Food is the constant element that brings everyone together to share their stories, laughter, pain, and joy. It provides comfort, which is why cooking is my love language.
This love language and the gatherings it fosters are the reasons I decided to embark on this journey. I’m sharing my favorite home-cooked recipes with you so that you can also create a welcoming space for gatherings at your table.
