[@johncburke2517]

Enzo and Celia, no thank you for sharing your experiences and showing us your Beautiful parts of the Tuscany region and beyond. Keep up the amazing work, Ciao, John, uk

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Thank you

[@debbiecalvino422]

Your hobby of sharing life in Lucca is deeply appreciated !

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Grazie, it makes it all worth while.

[@annaharpster5664]

Another tasty dish. Thank you both!

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

When I first tasted this years ago, I couldn't believe how wonderful stale bread could be. This dish always brings me back to summers when our daughter was small and we spent time in the south with Enzo's family.

[@Patrizia-IT]

Delicious recipe with just a few, simple ingredients.

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Thank you, that is why I (Celia) love Italian cooking so much

[@divinhaquem]

Great recipe, thank you for sharing the story and knowledge of your family with us!

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Thank you, this recipe for us sums up family summers. The colours and the taste bring back so many happy holidays.

[@The7AcreWood]

I live in south carolina. Tomato sandwiches are a staple here so that recipe makes me happy. Thank you for sharing!!!❤

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Enzo is a tomato addict, so he loves your comment

[@Davidtravels09]

I have an Italian friend visiting next weekend, I’m going to try this, thanks for sharing it. The colours of the Italian flag on a plate 🇮🇹👍

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

I've never thought about the flag. Thank you.

[@Carly-yd1dl]

We appreciate all of the hard work you both have put into making the videos! When we visited Lucca in May, because of your videos, we were able to recognize the hidden gems you pointed out, order coffee in Italian, and know whether we should eat in a bar or a restaurant depending on the time of day. And not only have your recipes helped us to learn how so few simple ingredients can make so many wonderful meals, they have also helped us to save money for our next trip to Lucca! Grazie mille!

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Yours is such a lovely comment.Grazie

[@cathyggill]

A favorite recipe! We live in Perugia, but we love to visit your part of the world.

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

You live in a beautiful corner of Italy as well.

[@jimbrennan1181]

Caponata Napoletana is a great example of how Italians make spectacular dishes with simple but fresh ingredients, except for the bread of course! I recall having this a few years back and I reached for the olive oil to give it a little extra drizzle but accidentally topped it with a splash of red wine! It was still delicious, although I won't say that it was any better. 😄

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

I remember a similar episode with my father who had prepared a caponata for us all on a hot summer day. His reaction was exactly the same!

[@davidcoates3330]

Celia and Enzo - I've only just discovered your channel , and I'm so glad I did . I spent an incredible few days in Lucca at Christmas a few years ago ; beautiful place , lovely people . This recipe looks absolutely delicious🧡

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment and joining our community. Lucca is indeed a special city.

[@ianmckenna1186]

hi from Dundee in Scotland, just discovered you two guys, looking forward to discovering more :)

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Welcome to our little community.

[@purplewitch-d24]

Well, the magpies won't be getting all the stale bread from now on! Thank you both for the recipe and for a reminder of your lovely kitchen and the outside table with the view. Love and best wishes always. ❤

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

We don't have magpies on the hills, and the birds have so much to feed on that we don't feed them except if we have a heavy snowfall but that hasn't happened for a while.

[@franpie2264]

Enzo, mia Caponata cucina povera dish has olives and Romano cheese in it, and I have it for dinner not breakfast. 👍😀😀😀👍Grazie and Ciao 🧡

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Sounds delicious, the beauty of this recipe is it can be adapted

[@luciafortunato6972]

The Caponata Napoletano looks very deliciousness! I thought immediately of Panzanella (which I love)! Wonderful to learn of a variation of how to prepare the combination of stale bread and garden tomatoes from Naples. . . . My frustration living outside of Italy is that good Italian breads and truly tasty tomatoes are almost impossible to make or grow. What comes naturally from the air and earth of Italy seem to be key ingredients, too. Grazie per la ricetta.

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Enzo bakes our bread, but we are lucky in Italy that we still have many artisan bakers, which are just ordinary local bakers with their ovens. Italians are passionate about the quality of their food, especially in less international cities and areas.

[@stevemartino1008]

Just wanted to say thanks for another wonderful video, Enzo and Celia. This is Steve and Terry from Philadelphia. You may remember that we bumped into you in the street back in July. Such a pleasure to chat with you then. Please keep the videos coming!

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

It was a pleasure meeting you and thank you for continuing to support us.

[@judit1783]

I want a bite!!

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

Maybe teletransportation will enable us to share and all eat together in the future.

[@fhugheveleigh2]

Here's a thumbs up from England. I am trying to work out the differences twixt CN from Naples and panzanella from Tuscany. Interesting that a simple peasant dish has similar ingredients but both are geographically apart and politically would have been, at the time rather different. I guess the poor were poor wherever they were and bread and tomatoes were basics available at a reasonable price at least in summer. Thank you for your videos - always relaxing and personal and seemingly seamlessly un-manufactured.

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

If you confuse them, Enzo won't be very happy, Me (Celia ) There is certainly a similarity,

[@The7AcreWood]

I went to the store yesteryear and bought everything to try your wonderful aubergine with garlic, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Now I can't remember which video the recipe was in. Can you help please? A link would be awesome. 😊

[@PiazzaTalkLucca]

I'm very honoured you're making one of my recipes. This is the link to the video on marinated aubergines. Saluti kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJjHkqCGbdutqNE
