Pasta


Created and produced by Temple students, this half-hour cooking program features host Samantha Tedesco demonstrating a new recipe every episode. In the pilot episode, Sam shares a recipe for homemade pasta in red sauce that has been passed down in her family for generations. Sam discusses being raised half-Puerto Rican and half-Italian, and how food has always connected her to both sides of her extended family.
