Niko Romito presented this afternoon by Gianluca Biscalchin. The chef of Casadonna in Castel di Sangro (L'Aquila), among other things, dwelled on a set of rules that he summed up in "10 lezioni di cucina" [10 cooking lessons] (published by Giunti, in the "I Contorni di Piattoforte" series, with co-author Laura Lazzaroni).

The congress starts again, after the lunch break and after the many contrasting emotions of the morning. To keep the attention high you need someone like Niko. Niko Romito of Reale in Castel di Sangro. Through his slides he illustrates a maniacal work on cooking processes, especially those for meat, and then his stone tablets. And how many can they be? Ten. We list them just like he lays them out. Simplicity. Stratification. Evolution. Balance. Archetype. Health. Vegetal. Sweet. Bread. Tasting. The chef appears anxious, desirous of ears that will listen to him, brains that will absorb him, antennas that will pick him up. For this he entrusts a book he later distributes. Not the usual book by a chef, he says. And so does everyone.
