Making Every Meal a Celebration
Italian chef Nick Stellino invites viewers to savor the pleasures of the kitchen and the family table in his new 13-part series, Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen V. In this successor to the first four Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen series, Nick shares his love of family and good food, demonstrating innovative yet easy-to-prepare culinary creations that evoke the traditions of his native Sicily.
Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen V premieres on public television stations in January 2006. (Please check local listings.) The series is a co-production of KCTS/Seattle Public Television and Stellino Productions and is distributed by American Public Television (APT).
In Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen V, Nick introduces home cooks to recipes for delicious meat, poultry, seafood and pasta dishes, and tempting desserts. The dishes are elegant yet quickly prepared, using affordable ingredients that can be found at most supermarkets. These meals will turn your home into your favorite restaurant.
In each program, Nick demonstrates two recipes in their entirety, step by step. He also shares useful tips for preparation and presentation, along with warm personal stories that recall the family kitchen of his childhood.
In teaming up for Nick Stellino's Family Kitchen V, Nick Stellino and KCTS are continuing a successful relationship that began in 1994, when Stellino came to the Seattle public television station to tape the first season of the Mediterranean cooking and dining series, Cucina Amore. Within a year of its 1995 debut, Cucina Amore became one of the most popular food programs on U. S. television, and ultimately was ranked as public television's number-one "how-to" series (Nielsen, January 1998). In 1999, Stellino hosted the PBS special, Nick Stellino's Dinner Party, a lively culinary tour of three American cities produced by KCTS.
