Frederick G. Volpicelli has been cooking since 1960 (almost 50 years. My cooking files comprise thousands of kitchen-tested recipes covering practically everything but baking cakes and pies (I always deferred to my ex-wife in that department). I take on cooking tasks as a true meditation. I concentrate on the recipe and prep everything in advance. Fine dice is just that, and knife skills are paramount. I am a certified food handler in Massachusetts and I cook monthly Friendship meals for 60-80 members of the First Congregational Church of Harwich.

People continually ask for my recipes, but not the way it's on the recipe card, but the way I actually make it. (I have a habit of not always following the recipe).

So this website is born to satisfy those requests. I'll post recipes here often, contact me if you have a favorite or a question. GOOD EATING EVERYONE!
