Amy Riolo Selections

“Food is the love, the power, and the beauty of life in full expression.” - Amy Riolo

Selecting the best products to use in my cooking is one of my greatest joys. My culinary students, readers, and followers always ask me for recommendations on which ingredients to buy. For this reason, I decided to offer a personally selected collection of high-quality, artisan Italian products needed to make classic Italian cuisine in the United States.

Introduced in 2019, Amy Riolo Selections sources traditionally crafted, single-estate Italian products and markets them to new audiences in the United States. Working with small producers, my importers and I ensure that each product showcases time- honored techniques while providing flavor and nutrition. Amy Riolo Selections exclusively offers sustainable products that are as good for the community as they are for the palate, the planet, and our health.

BOOKS

“Health, history, and home are the secret ingredients in my books” - Amy Riolo

By the time you finish reading one of my cultural cookbooks, you will have a complete understanding not only of the cuisine, but of the people, culture, and history that created it. Reading one of my wellness books or cookbooks will provide you with the most comprehensive, whole-body approach needed to not only cook and eat with pleasure and health, but also to live your best life. I learned at a young age from my grandmother, Nonna Angela, how food is the foundation of our daily lives, communities, cultures, health, and happiness. Nowadays, I enjoy providing the full story behind each recipe, offering the most delicious interpretations possible, and writing them in a way that is easy and enjoyable for home cooks to follow.
