Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Lucia Giardina

Deborah Kobylt Live, Little Italy of LA

Please welcome to our show, #LuciaGiardina, entrepreneur, actor, and founder of #LuciasKitchen.

Lucia has an interesting story, and we start at the beginning, when she was a young girl, cooking with her mama and grandma in the kitchen. By age 12, she was preparing full meals for the entire family in Torino, Italy, and it was her family who encouraged her to jar her tomato sauce, and finally, she did. And here we are today.

Licia’s sauce is made from all fresh ingredients, just reheat and incorporate into your favorite foods. In fact, throughout our interview, she gives us the “secret sauce” so we can try to replicate at home. Lucia also shares with us her early Italian influences, what it’s like living and doing business here in the U.S., and also how she went from expert sauce maker to actor. We’d love to know!
