"Make bread, make pizza: it's better than going to the psychologist. If staying in the kitchen, maybe experimenting, even wasting something, inventing ... here it can help people to survive. Welcome, in these days of solitude, this overdose of video eaters, kneaders, flaters posted on social networks ". William Zonfa , chef starry among the glories of L' Aquila, on Easter Monday with millions of Italians corked at home and who is forbidden to go out of town, he has no doubts: "Do you remember, do you love, don't you make war? It's that. Also because we restaurateurs will be among the last to reopen and then we humbly tell you: stay at home and cook, eat, and if you need it, we will give you all the advice of the earth. Let us all take care of our food with greater attention at home We will get fat? And oh well, we will lose weight later. You improvise, use your imagination, it is not serious if one thing is not good, we all recover the associative function of the table, the moral value of the banquet. We restaurateurs, we who do gourmet cuisine, we are on the abyss, but I make the effort to go to bed calmly anyway: if someone wants my recipes, my advice, I will gladly give them to him ".
First the earthquake, then the virus, for L'Aquila is another terrible blow : "And to think that since last year we had reviewed tourism - the young starry continues - I hear many say 'who knows if I can handle this second blow' We rolled up our sleeves then, we will do it again as long as we understand one thing: 'after' we will have to start again in the agro-food field from our proximity. Buy especially Abruzzo products at the beginning, but not for nationalism, to restart the work local, our excellences, to the advantage of sustainability, pollution, diversity. In short, we must remain humble. For example, today at home I cook a coratella, stuff of our shepherds ".
