Chef Gino D’Acampo continues his culinary journey around his native Italy. In this episode, he returns to Campania – the region where he grew up and where his family still live. He particularly wants to visit the town of Gragnano, which is world-famous for its pasta. Gragnano’s natural elements of sea breezes, hot sunshine and mountain water all contribute to its outstanding pasta. Gino visits one of the town’s historic pasta factories where local ladies teach him the traditional skill of hand-rolling fusilli. He picks cherries from the surrounding orchards to create a contemporary version of the classic dessert tiramisu, and pays a visit to his family. Nervously, Gino decides to cook a delectable dinner for them – Gragnano’s legendary pasta with salmon in a spicy arrabbiata sauce.

  1. Lovely…but I have to laugh …when you say pasta is in his blood…I thought it was all in his belly! 😉

  2. Another beautiful area of Italy and Gino’s awesome cooking. It looks amazingly delicious 🤗❤️

  3. Gino would only make to kitchen porter in a proper restaurant in Italy. But in England anybody who can turn a stove on and off is a celebrity chef.

  4. Wonderful. For some reason Italy is something for me. Great channel, I am subscribing to see many of your videos to come. Love Italian food. Greetings from Australia 🌈🌈

  7. A fantastic video Gino. I would love to go on these Italian adventures. Italy 🇮🇹 and Italian food is my passion. Thank you

  8. "…since the Romans where here.." I just found that statement to be a little funny since Italians to me are Romans lol, or rather Romans are their ancestors. If you wish to educate me I love history so let me know I won't be offended in anyways lol. Anyways, I like watching this channel very authentic and educational. I can smell and taste the food as he describes all of the ingredients.
