Gino D’Acampo returns with brand new show Like Mama Used to Make

OHMYGOSSIP — Gino D’Acampo is set to return with brand new cooking show ‘Like Mama Used to Make’
The ITV Chef will be heading to Italy for the six part series that will celebrate the countries matriarchs and explore how they shaped the Italian cuisine.
Gino will be going back to his roots where he will immerse himself in culture as he travels around Naples, Florence and Bologna to explore and sample regional dishes.
Synopsis reads: “Starting in his place of birth, Torre Del Greco in Napoli, where he learnt to cook in the kitchens of his Nonna Flora and Mamma Alba, Gino is going back to his roots to celebrate all the women whose kitchens have fuelled Italy through their incredible food.
“With recipes including Pasta al Genovese, Steak Fiorentine and Tortellini, Gino will have his work cut out to keep up with the women running the kitchens which he visits.”
Gino, 45 said: ”From learning to make pizza at the fingertips of my Nonna Flora, to stirring simmering pots of ragu in my mamma’s kitchen.
“From the first meatballs I rolled with my aunty Clara to the Spaghetti Vongole that I make for my own family. My journey as a chef is all thanks to two generations of women, who without their passion for the food that they fed their families, I would not be where I am.”
Nicola Lloyd, Factual Entertainment commissioner at ITV, said: “This show will see Gino immersed in the culture that fired his passion for cooking, inviting viewers to join him as he celebrates the women who nurture and continue the traditions that make Italian food the centre of family life with all the warmth, humour and wisdom that brings.”
Helen Cooke, Joint Creative Director of producers Betty TV added: “It’s a pleasure to be working with Gino as he cooks for his toughest crowd yet – some of Italy’s feistiest female cooks. In this new series he’ll reveal his tastiest family recipes, learn new dishes and meet some incredible Mammas. Expect cheeky banter, heart-warming moments and for Gino to eat some humble pie.”
